Featured How 2 Cor 5:19 teaches limited atonement !

Post 117 Please explain what my point is so I can know you understand it, even though you dont agree.

 

The world in 2 Cor 5:19 is limited to those who have been objectively reconciled to God by His death. Thats why he tells believers that they had been [past tense] reconciled to God by Christs death, even when they themselves were active enemies Rom 5:10

For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. Same thing is implied 2 Cor 5:18

And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

Now this objective reconciliation is once and for all by the death of Jesus Christ for all whom He died.

So the present tense reconciliation given in Vs 19 of 2 nd Cor 5 doesnt go beyond those who have been objectively reconciled by His death, which of them it entitles to non imputation of sin, sin not being laid to their charge. John Gill makes a solid comment here:

Now there is a Gospel sense in which subjective reconciliation is presently going on until the completion of all generations of objectively reconciled hear [spiritually] the good news of their Salvation/Reconciliation objectively in and through Jesus Christ..


Be warned that some teach a false view that this portion of scripture teaches universalism, everyone is reconciled to God or shall be, but that's not true because some shall die in their sins, the wrath of God is abiding on them, they shall not see life, and God still charges them with their sins Eph 5:6

6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things [sins]cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. 4

 

Duh I have explained my points, but you dont discuss them

 

Its pretty simple, those who comprise the world of 2 Cor 5:19 dont have their sins charged to them, so they cant die in their sins, however there are people who shall die in their sins Jn 8:24 so they cannot belong to the world of the reconciled, hence 2 Cor 5:19 teaches limited atonement.

 

The world in 2 Cor 5:19 is limited to only some because ts a Justified world, all people arent Justified. We know this because there will be a resurrection in the last day of both the Just/Justified and the unjust/unjustified See Acts 24:15

And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.

They're the same unjust of 1 Cor 6:9

Know you not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

But now Paul is speaking of a world of folk that God doesnt impute their sins unto them 2 Cor 5:19

19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

Now non imputation of trespasses means forgiveness of them, Rom 4:7-8

7 Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.


8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

Ps 32:1-2

Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.


2Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.

Now those whom God will not impute sin are a forgiven people therefore a Justified people. A forgiven people are judicially legally Justified. it meansto cancel an indebtedness or liability of:

One of the NT words for Justification found in Rom 4:25 is the word dikaiósis which means:

acquittal, justifying, justification, a process of absolution

acquittal is but a synonym for forgiveness,

Hence the world in 2 Cor 5:19 is a forgiven, acquitted, justified world with no trespasses charged to it ! 4

 

He died for them He reconciled to God and have no sin laid to their account 2 Cor 5 19 so that excludes them who die in their sins, hence Limited atonement

 

See Post 127

 

You not paying attention, the world of 2 Cor 5:19 is a gathering of individuals that doesnt have its sins charged to them, the penalty of sin is not there, so the world is limited in this regard to them who are reconciled to God and dont have their sins charged to them. Let me ask you this, are people in hell reconciled to God / Yes or No

 

Again the world of 2 Cor 5:19 doesnt have any sin charged to it, no condemnation. So how can the condemned be part of that world ? So its limited !

 

Again the world of 2 Cor 5:19 doesnt have any sin charged to it, no condemnation. So how can the condemned be part of that world ? So its limited ! And it behooves any preacher of the word of reconciliation to make that clear, for thats good news.
