Letter: No Unlimited Atonement

In Richard Harris’ article “What Is the Gospel?” in the March issue of The Courier, he wrote, “There was nothing limited about Christ’s substitutionary death and atonement.” Everyone limits the Lord’s atonement in one way or another. Some limit it in its function, saying that it didn’t actually save anyone but made all people capable of salvation. Others limit it in scope, saying it actually saved all for whom it was made, but it wasn’t made for everyone. There is no such thing as unlimited atonement.
