The Doctrines of Grace - Limited Atonement

In this episode we continue our discussion of the Doctrines of Grace (also known as Calvinism) by exploring the doctrine of Limited Atonement. I recommend listening to the previous episodes in this series if you have not yet done so. 

To listen to the show you can either stream it here or from podbean or download it on iTunes or Stitcher!

I also made mention of John Owen's formulation on Limited Atonement. Here is the layout of that argument:

The Father imposed His wrath due unto, and the Son underwent punishment for, either:

1. All the sins of all men.
2. All the sins of some men, or
3. Some of the sins of all men.

In which case it may be said:

1. That if the last be true, all men have some sins to answer for, and so, none are saved.
2. That if the second be true, then Christ, in their stead suffered for all the sins of all the elect in the whole world, and this is the truth.
3. But if the first be the case, why are not all men free from the punishment due unto their sins?

You answer, "Because of unbelief."

I ask, Is this unbelief a sin, or is it not? If it be, then Christ suffered the punishment due unto it, or He did not. If He did, why must that hinder them more than their other sins for which He died? If He did not, He did not die for all their sins!"

Enjoy the show!
