I. "Limited Atonement" Defined
A. LIMITED ATONEMENT DEFINED BY "STRICT" CALVINISTS.
The so-called "strict" Calvinists, such as those in the Dutch Reformed Tradition, and other strict Reformed and Presbyterian traditions define LIMITED ATONEMENT as the theory that the death of the Lord Jesus Christ on Calvary's cross was strictly LIMITED in any and all of its aspects ONLY TO THE ELECT or saved ones, or believers in Christ. It had nothing whatsoever to do with the unsaved or the non-elect people of the world. In NO sense whatever, according to this FALSE VIEW, could you tell a sinner in the audience who eventually would NOT be saved in his lifetime, that "CHRIST DIED FOR YOUR SINS." Christ died (in this FALSE VIEW) ONLY for the sins of the ELECT, and NOT for the sins of the non-elect in any sense whatsoever! This is the definition of "LIMITED ATONEMENT" which I will argue against as being unscriptural and, in effect, therefore, a heretical doctrine!
B. LIMITED ATONEMENT DEFINED BY "MIXED-UP" CALVINISTS
There is, however, a school of what I term "mixed-up" Calvinists, who think they also hold to a "LIMITED ATONEMENT" theory who teach that Christ's death was sufficient for the whole world, but efficient or effective only for those who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior. This explanation of Christ's death is CORRECT, and is Scripturally SOUND, but it is NOT the proper definition of "LIMITED ATONEMENT," and all who hold it, therefore, are NOT believers in "LIMITED ATONEMENT," but rather in "UNLIMITED ATONEMENT." This is an important distinction to bear in mind as we progress in our study.
