Did Christ die for the sins of all people? Yes, we believe that Jesus Christ died for the sins of every single man, woman, boy, and girl.

0:19.0

And we want to demonstrate that today biblically. Dr. David Allen, a leading

0:24.2

scholar on the doctrine of atonement, wrote, ultimately, I believe any doctrine that does not

0:29.4

comport with Scripture will be damaging to the Church. I do not believe limited atonement

0:34.4

comports with Scripture. Neither do many of my reformed brethren,

0:38.3

as a careful study of church history from the Reformation to the present, demonstrates.

0:43.3

Scripture seems to clearly assert that Christ died for the sins of all people.

0:49.3

As 1 John 2.2 states, he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours, but also

0:57.6

for the sins of the whole world. He continues in 1. John 4.14, stating,

1:02.7

And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his son to be the Savior of the world.

1:38.3

verse 2 of chapter 2 and verse 14 of chapter 4 refer to a world of the elect as our Calvinistic friends attempt to argue.

1:48.7

As 1 Timothy 410 states,

1:50.9

that is why we labor and strive because we have put our hope in the living God

1:56.1

who is the savior of all people and especially of those who believe. And 2.1 says,

2:04.9

but there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you.

2:11.1

They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who

2:15.9

bought them, bringing swift destruction on themselves.

2:19.8

Notice that the apostle recognizes the destruction of false teachers,

2:24.6

while also acknowledging the fact that they were bought by the blood of Christ.
