Bible Question: Why do Arminians believe in an unlimited atonement. If God looked down the corridors of time and saw who would accept Christ then He knows all who will be saved. Wouldn't the atonement then be limited based on His knowledge of those who accepted Him? |
Bible Answer: I’m are not one (Arminians), never will be, but hears the way I see it. Jesus prayed for the Peter to not falter, even though He knew he would deny Him anyway. (Luke 22:32). Jesus prayed for the ones who crucified Him would be forgiven, even though He knew they would not repent (Luke 23:34). Jesus offered the rich man salvation, even though He knew he would reject it (Mark 10:21). If I offered you a gift I had no intention of giving you, or was not even available, even if I knew you would not accept it, I would be a lying. Isa 55:1, Luk3:6, Joh3:16, Acts2:21, Rom5:18, Rom10:13, 1Tim2:4, Titus2:11, 2Pe3:9, Rev22:7, Lie2 (lº) n. 1. A false statement presented as being true; a falsehood. 2. Something that deceives or give a wrong impression. God: 1. Perfect, omnipotent, omniscient originator and ruler of the universe, the principal object of faith and worship. 2. DOES NOT LIE!!!! |
