1 Timothy 4:10 — God is the savior of all people, especially those who believe
Mike cites 1 Tim 4:10 as another clear text against limited atonement.
"We have our hope set on the Living God who is the savior of all people, especially of those who believe" (1 Tim 4:10). There is a general sense in which Christ saves all and a special sense in which he saves believers. This fits unlimited atonement with limited application.
