Featured Limited Atonement insanity.

You just quoted the verse. Why would you quote a verse that anti-Cals use to dispute limited atonement?

 

I think the idea is that if you don't accept actual imputed guilt of Adam's sin to all of mankind you are left with the question of how you can explain the obvious connection stated by Paul in Romans 5. Verse 19 clearly states that by one man's disobedience many were made sinners. They either directly share the guilt or they inherited a propensity to sin as descendants in a fallen state.

 

Question?

because of this, even as through one man the sin did enter into the world, and through the sin the death; and thus to all men the death did pass through, for that all did sin;

Does the definite article appear to imply that sin existed, yet had not been introduced into the system of order just laid down?

What sin? Also, before Adam brought the sin into the world and thus the death, was sin and death going to be necessary to the destruction of the devil and his works?

put on the whole armour of God, for your being able to stand against the wiles of the devil, because we have not the wrestling with blood and flesh, but with the principalities, with the authorities, with the world-rulers of the darkness of this age, with the spiritual things of the evil in the heavenly places; Eph 6:11,12

Was Adam, of flesh and blood, created because of the existence, of the darkness of this age, with the spiritual things of the evil in the heavenly places; ?

Did God make some kind of mistake, in Adam, and then have to correct that mistake, in Christ or did God know what He was doing from before the foundation of the world? Also was the original plan to be through Adam plus children and also through Christ Jesus plus children?

 

Yes really. Rom 5:18-19 are about the same group of people and the efficacious results to their particular federal head acting in their behalf. The many in Vs 19 is the all in Vs 18

Are you a universalist now ? You believe Justification of life has come upon all men without exception ?

 

Rom 5:18 The all here is limited to the many in Vs 19 and its the elect, who are Justified by Christs Death alone.

Correct, if you study that word especially it clearly denotes that. Its the word μάλιστα:

1. especially, chiefly, most of all, above all
   
   
   most (in the greatest degree) or particularly
   
   So it can read without strain:
   
   For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, particularly of those that believe.

 

Lol, as much as you are a 'cherry-picker'. You cherry pick the first 'all men' in the passage to mean the whole human race, You cherry pick the second 'all men' to mean a select few.

18 So then as through one trespass the judgment came unto all men [the human race] to condemnation; even so through one act of righteousness the free gift came unto all men [the elect few] to justification of life.

 

As usual you exhibit your selective reading and or reading into the text.

Rom 5:18 Therefore, as through one man's offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man's righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life.

Judgement came to ALL men just as the means of salvation came to ALL men. The fact that salvation is available to ALL does not mean the ALL have to or will be saved. The person still has to trust in Christ for salvation.

Rom 5:19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man's obedience many will be made righteous.

What I do not see in this text is "elect". That is something that you read into the text.

I note that you want to alter by reading especially as {particularly}
1Ti 4:10 For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially {particularly} of those who believe.

How does that change what is said in that verse. Christ is still the savior of ALL men. Especially or {particularly} those that believe.

 

Again the all in Rom 5 18 is restated in Vs 19 as the many, and the many has the definite article in Vs 19, a specific group, not all without exception. Besides do you believe Justification of life in Vs 18 resulted for all without exception ? If you do thats universalism another false doctrine.

 

Both Rom 5 18 ; 1 Tim 4 10 is limited to the elect
