Unlimited atonement makes NO sense!
Are you saying:
that all that LORD Yeshua HaMashiach did in His sinless life; His voluntary, substitutional death; and His victorious resurrection from the dead as a man, did NOT and does NOT actually save anyone?
Are you saying:
that YHWH, the Father, FAILS to save all those He intended to save…
that Yeshua, the Son, FAILS to save; justify; atone for; propitiate for; and reconcile; all those for whom He died…
that GOD the Holy Spirit, FAILS to unite those for whom Christ died to their Savior according to the Father’s plan of salvation?
It is our PERFECT God’s plan of salvation and He is the SAVIOR!
A perfect plan accomplishes EXACTLY EVERYTHING it was intended to.
Do you believe that YHWH was just trying to make it easier for man to save himself by reducing the Ten Commandments to the self righteous, self saving obedience of just ONE – “obey the Gospel”? (depraved, rebellious man, taken captive by Satan, whose will is bound by death in sin, is not FREE to choose to do rightly or good – no not one!)
Study Romans 8 carefully and, hopefully, you will see that the Father gave His Son as a perfect, effectual sacrifice for “our” (beloved elect) sins and will also give “us” (beloved elect) everything else; especially the gifts of faith; repentance; and a new heart which can and WILL love God and obey Him. These are all included in the whole of the gift of salvation whereby we “all” (beloved elect) shall be saved!
We love HIM because HE first loved us (beloved elect).
We choose HIM because HE first chose us.
We seek HIM because HE first sought us.
We receive HIM because HE first recived us.
YHWH, our heavenly Father, was pleased to love “us” (intimately, “KNOWS” us, as His chosen ones)
He “FOREKNEW” us before the foundation of the world and gave “us” to His Son, who joyfully received “us”!
To the unrepentant workers of iniquity He says,”…depart from me, I NEVER “knew” you!”
“For whom He did “foreknow”, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son…”
