Trinitarian harmony assumes unnecessary correlation: individual election does not logically require limited atonement

Responding to Calvinist Arguments for Limited Atonement 00:31:28 – 00:32:58

A second structural objection to the Trinitarian harmony argument.

The Calvinist argument assumes: if God individually elects people, then Christ must die only for those people. Mike denies this correlation is logically required. One can affirm individual election and also affirm that Christ died for all. These are not mutually exclusive. Additionally, there is no passage of Scripture that explicitly says Jesus did not die for Judas, or only died for some exclusive group.

No man left behind: Jesus died for all

Did Jesus’ death leave no man left behind that was not covered by His death on the cross? For many Christians who identify as Calvinists, the gospel includes the conclusion that Jesus died only for a select group of people who were predetermined by God before the world was created.
