The truth of limited atonement is vital to the Christian Gospel, there's no Gospel without it. See 1 Cor 15:3. It refers specifically to the Death of Christ on the Cross, which death fully satisfied the law and justice of God for not all human beings but only for a certain group, the elect of God, Chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world.

Now let's get one thing understood, when i speak of limited atonement, i don't mean by any means that Christ atoning death is limited in its power, but that its limited in that it doesn't cover or apply to everyone, but only applies to and covers the elect or chosen of God or the Church of God in Christ, or Gods Sheep. Jn 10

Thanks for sharing your conviction — it's clear you've thought deeply about this. The doctrine of limited atonement (or particular redemption) is indeed a key part of Reformed theology and reflects a specific interpretation of passages like John 10 and 1 Corinthians 15:3.

It emphasizes that Christ’s death was purposeful and fully effective for those it was intended to save — the elect. Many believers find great assurance in this, knowing that Christ’s sacrifice actually accomplished salvation, not just made it possible.

Of course, there are differing views within Christianity, like unlimited atonement, which holds that Christ died for all but only those who believe receive its benefits. These debates have existed for centuries and are often rooted in how we interpret Scripture and God’s sovereignty.

It’s important to keep discussing these doctrines with grace, grounding everything in the authority of Scripture and a love for truth. Would you say this teaching has shaped your understanding of evangelism or assurance of salvation?

So Jesus didn't need to sacrificed for people to have grace? There's a condition. There is also Paul who said people can fall from grace. How is that a picture of unconditional grace?
Grace that saved a sinner is unconditional towards the sinner it saves. They met no conditions, they were dead in sin and in rebellion towards God

"Limited Atonement" denies that God's Grace is unconditional, as to Limit the Cross (The Atonement) is to teach that God's Grace is LIMITED, not unconditional.
Contrary Limited atonement shows Grace that saves was unconditional, and effectual

You posted that God's Grace is unlimited.

Now you say its Limited.

You are stuck in a demonic mindset, as that is what Calvinism does to its victims.
You are darkened in your mind by John Calvinism, Hyper Calvinism to such a degree... that you dont even recognize your own contradictions when you post them.
