Christ sacfifice is sufficent for all but only effective for those that come..or are you a univeralist??

I will accept that. What does it mean for Calvinists? If Jesus died in the place of every man for everyone's sins, then did Jesus love everyone? (John 3:16)

Did Jesus intend that everyone to come to salvation? (2Pe 3:9)

If Jesus died for everyone's sins and he intended his sacrifice to cover the sins of the whole world, then why is it that people don't come to Christ? If it is God's will that all come to salvation and some don't, then is God's will thwarted, or did God intend that man actually has a say in whether or not to accept or reject the sacrifice that was geven on his behalf?

And by that I mean TRULY accept or TRULY reject.

That is the question isn't it?? Do you think the ones that do come are smarter or holier or more clever? There is a reason all do not come..eithor all come that God foreordained or God is unable to do what He wishes and have all men saved..or those that do come are some how superior me???:>)))
