What is the second death? The second death is hell, which is set for those who do not believe in Christ. The article explains from Revelation 20:6 why the penal substitutionary atonement of Christ is the only way we can be saved from the judgment. 

This article examines the doctrine of the atonement of Christ as a teaching that has received a lot of attention and has been the subject of much debate in the past. At issue in this article is the Reformed claim that Christ died for only the elect (limited atonement). This is opposed by those who claim that this would mean a limiting of the power or effect of Christ's atonement. The author deals with this issue on the basis of scriptural arguments raised from both sides of the debate.

The author attempts to unravel the truths that lie in John 3:16, and expose the traps that some may fall into if this text is not properly understood. The text is essentially one that touches on the nature and extent of the love of God and the nature of the atonement of Christ.

The author believes that the future of Christianity is in the theology of Calvinism. He goes on to emphasize the basic tenets of Calvinism such as the sovereignty of God, total depravity, the atonement of Christ, the foreknowledge of God and the so-called universalistic passages.
