III. Christ died for all as to sufficiency; Dort answer; universal serious offer
III. Least of all may it be called into doubt that Christ, according to the eternal counsel of God, properly died for this end, and that by the fullest propitiatory sacrifice and the satisfaction of His passion and death He properly merited and obtained this: that each and every human who believes in Him actually obtains, because of Him, remission of sins and eternal life, while each and every other person, if only they repent and believe, can certainly obtain it — as I once answered to the second article, or second chapter of doctrine on the death of Christ, in the Synod of Dort. See the Judgments of the Foreign Theologians, p. 127, published at Dordrecht.
When it is asked whether Christ died for all humans or not for all, both can be said with a sound and distinct sense without contradiction. For He died for all, in the phrasing of Scripture, as to the perfection and sufficiency of His merit and satisfaction, because by His death He most fully, sufficiently, and efficaciously obtained this grace announced in the Gospel — that they ought to obtain remission of sins through faith — for all humans in this world, indeed even if there were another world of them, so that: 1. it is offered in common to all seriously and in good faith; 2. true repentance and unfeigned faith are demanded of all; and 3. remission of sins and eternal life are seriously promised to all together for Christ's sake under the condition of faith. Hence also 4. all are obligated and bound to repent and believe in Christ as their Messiah and Savior, that they may obtain the promise.

Et III. minime vocandum est in dubium, quod Christus secundum aeternum Dei consilium in hunc finem proprie mortuus sit, & quod plenissimo sacrificio propitiatorio & satisfactione passionis & mortis suae hoc proprie meruerit & impetraverit, quod omnes ac singuli homines, qui in ipsum credunt, propter ipsum remissionem peccatorum & vitam aeternam actu consequantur, ceteri vero omnes ac singuli, si modo resipiscant & credant, certo consequi queant, ut olim respondi ad articulum secundum sive secundum doctrinae caput de morte Christi in synodo Dordracena. Vide judicia Theol. exterorum pag. 127 Dordrechti edita. Quod hic igitur quaeratur, utrum Christus pro omnibus hominibus, an vero non pro omnibus mortuus sit? Utrumque sano & distincto intellectu citra contradictionem dici potest. Nam mortuus est pro omnibus, phrasi scripturae, quantum ad perfectionem & sufficientiam meriti sui & satisfactionis, quia hanc gratiam, quae in Euangelio annunciatur, quod nempe per fidem remissionem peccatorum consequi debeant, pro omnibus hominibus in hoc mundo, imo si eorum & alter mundus esset, plenissime sufficientissime & efficacissime per mortem suam impetravit, ita ut 1. omnibus communiter serio ac bona fide offeratur; 2. ab omnibus vera paenitentia ac fides haud simulate exigatur; & 3. omnibus simul serio propter Christum remissio peccatorum & vita aeterna sub conditione fidei promittatur. Unde & 4. omnes obligati sunt ac tenentur resipiscere ac credere in Christum tanquam Messiam suum & Salvatorem, ut promissionem consequantur.
