Same old limited Atonement double-talk.

Atonment is unlimited since Christ died for all men (Heb.2:9, 1Jn.2:2)

Salvation is complete but the individual man must get under the completed work enjoy the benefits of it.

I put a million dollars in your bank account.

I tell you that it there to take out.

The money is there wheather or not you take it.

Salvation is complete wheather or not any man avails himself of it.

Christ paid the debt for all men, not just the 'chosen few'.

Ah, but the man is a millionare whether or not he takes out a single penny. In fact, the bankers would call the funny farm on him if he walked into the bank and accepted his own money to become a millionare.

Come on, this isn't hard. In order for your analogy to be better, you would need to have the man walk into the bank and tell the teller that he is here for his promised million.

Of course, I'm guessing that the man will probably not get the response he wants.

And, you know what is really funny is that this Arminian analogy makes the man out to be a bank robber as he procures money that isn't his.

Later,
Christian.
