Actually, no, It says πᾶς, which many times is used to refer to a group as a whole, but not every individual within that group. Which Paul does in this case and then qualifies it with "particularly those who believe".

Actually, no. It says πᾶς. In context it means all who believe. Here's another verse using the same word πᾶς. If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under...

One thing is for sure... your exegesis is no brainer... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Here's a list describing Abraham's obedience. No mention of the law of Moses, however. He: left Ur of the Chaldees upon GOD's order left Haran upon GOD's order believed GOD's promise sojourned as a stranger in the land of Canaan upon GOD's order circumcised himself and his house as commanded...

People can't be reconciled if they don't believe in the sacrifice. Justification is via faith. No salvation without justification.

I'm here because I'm here. Why is that a problem for you? Oh that's right, you don't know what you're talking about.

The part of the world that believes.

He is the propitiation for the whole world, not just for those who believe, but also for those who don't believe. But if people don't believe in that propitiation, they won't be saved, even though it is suficient to save them.

For example, this verse says that all Israel stoned a fellow named Achan. Did every person in Israel throw a stone at him? That would have been impossible. So here we can see that all doesn't mean every. And Joshua said, Why hast thou troubled us? the LORD shall trouble thee this day. And all...

The word translated as all (in both Greek and Hebrew) doesn't of necessity mean every. So Paul wasn't saying that Christ will save all men (every man) , but that he is the savior of all particularly who believe.

He is the savior of the world. That doesn't include all people, though.

No, I didn't. Waste of time. No spiritual discernment that I could see. Typical "I posted a lot of verses so I'm right" approach.

Post it here. I'm not going to play jump all over the place to know what you're talking about.

The bible doesn't say that anywhere. If you disagree, present your evidence one passage at a time.

That wall of text you presented is ridiculous. tl;dr. If you want to pick out the best one, or go over them individually, I'd be happy to discuss.

That defense is based on that particular translation of μάλιστα (i.e., especially). Particularly would be a better translation IMO, that restricts salvation to those who believe, which is consistent with the rest of scripture.

Neither does spiritual discernment. But universalism does exist in our dictionaries, and you are a universalist.

As post-modern Christianity continues its slide into apostasy, we can expect to see more posts like this OP trying to justify and normalize lawlessness, and specifically homosexuality. Just this past weekend there was a 4-day festival for gay "Christians" in Hot Springs, NC called the Wild Goose...

I've walked into either Costco or Sam's once when they were cooking up shrimp for samples, and I gagged at the smell. It was an abomination!
