James White misrepresented Mike's position on "world" in 1 John 2:2

Responding to Calvinist Arguments for Limited Atonement 01:12:30 – 01:15:07

Mike clarifies what he actually argued about the word kosmos in 1 John 2:2.

White attributed to Mike the claim that "world" always means all of humankind throughout all eternity. Mike denies saying this. What he actually argued: in 1 John 2:2 specifically, "the whole world" does not only refer to the elect. Furthermore, the word "world" in Scripture never clearly refers to only the elect. Only one non-elect person needs to be included in "the whole world" for limited atonement to fail.
