"Whether Christ died for all men or for only those who will believe has been an issue much debated since the days of the Reformation," observes Dr. Robert Lightner in the introduction. "Unless Christ dies for all men, the message of God's love and Christ's death must be given with tongue in cheek and with some reservation." In this revised edition, the author has included three new appendices that examine the issue of limited atonement and sharing the gospel, key biblical passages regarding the topic of "double predestination," and recent presentations of the limited atonement view.
