Through my studies, I believe now in the salvation of the elect through Christs redeeming work as opposed to what I was brought up with:
"Christ died to make a way for ALL people if they should choose it"
As of now, my only unanswered questions is how to resolve that although the covenant was for the *chosen*, that
1 Timothy 2:4, says : the God desires ALL men to be saved , not just the elect. Similar, John 3:16, for God so loved the WORLD, (not simply the elect)
Please help me resolve this. If there was a precious thread directly addressing these verses, I missed it, and am sorry for the repost of topic.
thanks again for helping a "quickly reforming, used to be baptist"! LOL
