Pro multis has always been translated as for many (as scripture still has it). The current use of "for all" certainly implies universal salvation an Idea that has become de rigeur in progressive circles and blatantly contradicts Christ's teaching on the matter of Heaven and Hell.

So, do you deny that Christ's sacrifice is sufficient to save all men? Cause translating "pro multis" as "for many" "certainly implies" that the sacrifice is not sufficient to save all.
