Limited Atonement (Poem)

Limited Atonement

The cross was not a gamble,
It was due ransom paid in full,
Freeing the elect from judgment,
While upholding God’s righteous rule.

Not a moment of Christ's life was wasted,
Nor a drop of his blood shed in vain,
But for they who were mercifully chosen,
The holy Lamb of God was slain.

His blood was spilt in plenty,
Yet not for the sins of all,
But for all the sins of those destined,
To respond to the Spirit’s call.

Salvation has been accomplished,
God's wrath wholly satisfied,
Jesus did not die for a stranger,
Our King died to save his Bride.
