The Scripture declares explicitly & in plain terms that Christ died even for those who are lost (Rom 14:15; 2 Pet 2:1) ... Indeed, Christ "by the grace of God tasted death for every man" (Heb 2:9). Christ laid down His life "for the life of the world" (John 6:51) -Arminius

“Over the years I have been asked numerous times for an Arminian systematic theology. This is one, even though Macchia hardly mentions Arminius or Arminianism. He gently but firmly rejects Calvinism while expressing appreciation for some aspects of Reformed theology” -Roger Olson

Replying to @gregwest120
And what was the end of his creation? It was one, and no other, — that he might know, and love, and enjoy, and serve his great Creator to all eternity.” Rev. John Wesley #globalmethodist
