Who Is In Christ?

               

Because we are in Christ Jesus before the foundations of the world were formed, (Eph. 1:4; 1 Peter 1:2; 2 Tim. 1:9; Titus 1:2). We were also in Him when He went to the cross. We were in Him when God the Father poured out His wrath for our sins on Christ while he hung on the cross. We were in Him when he died on the cross. We were in Him when He was buried. We were in Him when God raised Him from the dead; we were in Him when He ascended to the right hand of the Father in heaven.

For this reason, Christ only died for those who He came to save. If every man woman and child that ever lived was in that favored position from before the Foundations of the earth were formed, everyone would go to heaven, and everyone does not. If every individual that ever lived were in Christ, God's Justice would demand they all must be saved. 
What the false gospel of human decision leads to is universalism. Also, this false gospel is Pelagianism, which states that Christ was only a good example and that He did what He did to show us a better way, this has been a known heresy for hundreds of years.

If Christ died for every individual that ever live and people still, go to hell, then nobody has hope because in that case, his death was insufficient to fulfill what God sent him to do and He would not have been raised from the dead.

Praise be to God our Father that Christ was sufficient and was raised from the dead, that he secured God's elect and is still saving them today.
