    This whole Calvinism/Arminianism thing has gotten ridiculous. The fact is, quoting Scripture:

    1 Timothy 1:15 This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

    Did Jesus Christ save seek and save all the lost sinners He was responsible to seek and save Lk 19:10 ? Is He 100 % successful ?

    As an addendum to the OP Jesus Christ Saves Lost Sinners I will add!

    Jesus Christ came to save lost Arminian sinners.

    Jesus Christ came to save lost Calvinist sinners.

    Jesus Christ came to save lost dispensational sinners.

    Jesus Christ came to save lost Roman Catholic sinners.

    Jesus Christ came to save lost Orthodox sinners.

    Jesus Christ came to save lost Presbyterian sinners.

    Jesus Christ came to save lost Lutheran sinners.

    Jesus Christ came to save lost Methodist sinners.

    Jesus Christ came to save lost Pentecostal sinners.

    Jesus Christ came to save lost Baptist sinners
    .
    Jesus Christ came to save just plain old lost sinners of which I was one. And I confess to still sinning but saved by the Grace of God.

    Ever lost sinner who has ever been saved or ever will be saved is saved by the Grace of God through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ!

    You got the answer you expected from a fellow Calvinist. I think we all knew that would eventually happen.

    Pretty cool that one of the most important aspects of your theology hangs on theoretical and philosophical elements and Sripturae Dimidium.

    That's awesome. Real slick. If you could only convince others through your slick jammers

    I think everybody's spread noticed you didn't add anything substantive to the discussion.

    You're 2 for 2 so far. Cast a few anathemas and you'll have a full house

    Well, just as soon as you get your wording in sync with the scripture verse you referenced, sure.

    But your wording betrays such a misunderstanding of what He meant, it would be like explaining rocket science to a Kindergartener

    Hows about you go reword your question to reflect what is said in the scripture you referenced?

    God sovereignly CHOSE Free will. "I STAND at the door and KNOCK if anyone hears my voice AND OPENS THE DOOR I will come in"

    It is not just "the WORLD" that is not saved -- it is "His own" sovereignly chosen -
