"Why would Christ die for the whole world if God did not intend to save everyone?"
There is at least one scriptural assumption in this line to which Arminians vehemently object. Can any of you calvinists guess what it is?

As a Calvinist, why would I even care? Still going from Rome, and back to Rome, I see.
Carry on.

Your objection is designed to ignore the question.

Well, you Arminians object to so much of what is plainly written in scripture that it is hard to narrow it down.
I suppose you would claim that God did intend to save everyone (if they, corrupt and fallen creatures, gave Him, their Creator, permission to do so) and that is why Christ died for the whole world.
That may not be exactly it but it always comes down to the ultimate Arminian sacred purpose for man in Creation: free will.
You pro-choicers are always on about it. Me, me, me, me, me. It's so predictable.
My personal preferred writing of this line would read: "Why would Christ die for the whole world if the Father did not intend to save everyone?".
You Arminians not only neglect the sovereignty of God generally but even more so the sovereignty of the Father in salvation.

Sure can! Was anyone Saved at the Cross?

When the High priest offered his sacrifice who was it offered for?
