Can You Explain Limited Atonement?

with Michael Easley
Can you explain limited atonement? Dr. E gives us a lot to think about in his explanation of limited atonement and the power of the blood of Christ.

Q: My question is about the L in TULIP – limited Atonement. I have had trouble wrapping my mind around this and reconciling it with some of scripture. RC Sproul’s term definite atonement has helped me and I think it is probably a more accurate term. But would like to hear what Dr. E has to say about this doctrine and scripture to support it.

 

Unfamiliar with “TULIP”?

Total depravity
Unconditional election
Limited atonement
Irresistible grace
Persistence of the saints

Resources Mentioned:

Often used in support of limited atonement:
John 10:15, Acts 20:28, Romans 8:32

“The New Testament at face value declares that Christ died for all.”

Romans 5:6-8, 2 Corinthians 5:14, 2 Peter 2:1, 1 Timothy 1:15, *John Hannah’s Invitation to Church History

*We spoke to John Hannah about his two-volume set on church history for a previous episode on inContext. Find those episodes Here and Here.
