Great post Dr. E.!

Heb. 10:10 : By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Now we may debate whether the "for all" means all men everywhere or all believers, ...

We may not need to even go that far. I originally read "once for all" to be as in "once and for all" or "for all time". Strong's has "once for all" being one term (ephapax - [2178]) and it appears to only refer to time.

Amen, FK! Thank you for your Godly correction.

Isn't "rightly dividing the word of truth" a wonderful, satisfying and reassuring pursuit?
