John 1:29

Scripture states he died for all, and the free gift came upon all men

Romans 5:18 (KJV 1900) — 18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.

And those who receive it reign in life
Romans 5:17 (KJV 1900) — 17 For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
He died for His people, the elect church (Mt 1:21; Eph 5:25-27).

It's required to be a Calvinist
If Christ paid the price for all sin, all must be saved, but we know that's not true.

So what's happening here is you're misunderstanding of the meaning of, ""ALL.".
 
"Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world".

A certain poster claims your sins are forgiven or taken away when you believe. Not all will believe so it seems not all sin is taken away or forgiven.

So much for unlimited atonement.

Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world,
love for the Father is not in them." 1 John 2:15​

He took away the sins of the world. All mankind!

He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world." 1 John 2:2​


That does not mean everyone will be saved. It means now that their sins are forgiven? All mankind has been placed in a position before God to choose to believe.

If Jesus did not pay the penalty for all sins?

No one would be allowed to believe. All of us (instead of Christ taking our place) would have been forsaken by God. Man would be no more! Cease to exist....


About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?”
(which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”) Matthew 27:26​


Jesus was forsaken in the place of all sinful mankind.

Since Jesus knew no sin of his own? He was God's safe place to dump our sins as to remove the consequences from us needing to be forsaken. But, if Jesus sinned just once? All creation would have been forsaken! Gone!

Sin is repulsive to God's holiness and must reject. Before man can approach God the barrier that sin causes with God must be removed. The Cross removed that barrier! With that barrier removed all men are now free to choose to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. But, not all men will. That is why they go to hell. For the rejection of Jesus Christ, not for their sins!

Having your sins paid for? That only saved us from being forsaken by God simply because of what we are.

Now having our sins having been paid for? We can now choose to believe in Jesus. When we believe? We in turn are saved from the consequence of forsaking God. There's the irony. Men choose to reject God and that is why they go to hell.

In the final judgment of the unbeliever there will be no mention of his sins as the cause. They will be evaluated not by their sins, but by their works that they did in their desire to think they could EARN God's respect and approval. They refused belief in Christ as the way to be approved of.


And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened.
And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged
according to their works,
by the things which were written in the books. "


One work will be missing! Belief In the Son of God! That is why they will go to the Lake of Fire.
Their sins were paid once and for all for by Christ. Their sins can not be judged again.


grace and peace ............

A certain poster claims your sins are forgiven or taken away when you believe. Not all will believe so it seems not all sin is taken away or forgiven.

RG demonstrates that he does not understand the atonement.

Sin is not taken away without a reception of the atonement through faith

It may be asked: If atonement naturally and necessarily cancels guilt, why does not the vicarious atonement of Christ save all men indiscriminately, as the universalist contends? The substituted suffering of Christ being infinite is equal in value to the personal suffering of all mankind; why then are not all men upon the same footing and in the class of the saved, by virtue of it? The answer is because it is a natural impossibility. Vicarious atonement without faith in it is powerless to save. It is not the making of this atonement, but the trusting in it, that saves the sinner: “By faith are you saved” (Eph. 2:8); “he that believes shall be saved” (Mark 16:16). The making of this atonement merely satisfies the legal claims, and this is all that it does. If it were made but never imputed and appropriated, it would result in no salvation. A substituted satisfaction of justice without an act of trust in it would be useless to sinners. It is as naturally impossible that Christ’s death should save from punishment one who does not confide in it as that a loaf of bread should save from starvation a man who does not eat it. The assertion that because the atonement of Christ is sufficient for all men therefore no men are lost is as absurd as the assertion that because the grain produced in the year 1880 was sufficient to support the life of all men on the globe therefore no men died of starvation during that year. The mere fact that Jesus Christ made satisfaction for human sin, alone and of itself, will save no soul. Christ, conceivably, might have died precisely as he did and his death have been just as valuable for expiatory purposes as it is, but if his death had not been followed with the work of the Holy Spirit and the act of faith on the part of individual men, he would have died in vain.[1]

The word 'Potential' would be in our Systematic Theology; not the Verse. It would be Eisegesis to say the word is in the Verse; but there is no Eisegesis in Theology. All Scripture is Good for Doctrine. If anyone would reach out, he is near them. As Calvinists, we say that 'out of Enmity'; the Lost won't reach out. The word Enmity isn't in the Verse either; but it's in our Systematic Theology...

There is a danger in only Pretexting; that's what they do, right?
No, It's what you do

Seeing as all do not have their sin taken away, that is only interpretation left

John 1:29 (KJV 1900) — 29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
