Two Aspects of the Cross

January 1, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - atonement, Chafer, cross, limited atonement, unlimited atonement
I have started working in earnest on my next book.

I was talking to a friend about the different views of the atonement in Free Grace circles. We came around to the issue of potentiality versus actuality. What did the cross actually accomplish?
