IntroductionWe spend another week considering the doctrine of Limited Atonement. We examine this doctrine using John 17 and the Canons of Dort. Christ's pristly work and his compassion is evident as he goes to the cross. Our problem is that we can have a “scarcity mindset” regarding Christ's work. We might think that limited atonement teaches that there is just enough of Christ's work to go around. The reality is that this doctrine teaches that Christ's work is guaranteed to be applied to Christ's people. Christ does not potentially secure some people, but he certainly secures his people. Christ Accomplishes the Work the Father Gave HimJesus declares in John 17:4, “I have accomplished the work that You gave Me to do.” This means that Christ is conscious he has an assignment. He has met the requirements for his day's work. Christ has done his work. His people are not part of a co operative arrangment. Christ did the work that the Father gave him to do. 
The Canons of Dort rejects the idea that Christ's death was “without a fixed plan.” Jesus is acting as a servant completing the father's assignment. If the plan was to save everyone then Christ's work is sufficient. We will address that potential in a moment. The important thint to note here is that the Father assigned work. Christ consciously accomplished that work. Christ expects his wages. This simply means that Christ has obeyed in the place of his people. He is going to the cross to bear the penalty of sin (Cover/Atone) for the sin. Now, he expects that the father will raise him from the dead.
Therefore, Christ's atonement is not theoretical. It is deliberate, polished, and there are metrics he is espected to meet. Christ knows the expectation and he met the expectation. Therefore, the Father owes him a resurrection. Christ has earned his vindication. (cf. Romans 1:3,4; Romans 4:24-25; 1 Timothy 3:16)Christ Secures His PeopleNow we address the question, “Who are Christ's People?” The second section centers on John 17:2, 6, and 9, showing Christ consciously interceding for a specific group. This group is identified as, “those whom You have given Me.” This group is still in the world, lives in the world, but is not the world. 
He possesses full authority over all flesh, but his application is only to the people that the Father has given him. Eternal life, in Jesus' definition, means knowing God. This means that His people truly experience the blessings of the Spirit as they rightly know God. This is only by the Spirit's work. (John 3) The Canons of Dordt stands against the Arminian claim that grace universally restores human neutrality by a universal assisting or prevenient grace. The Canons uses the strong language that this revives the Pelagian heresy. The log is: if prevenient grace makes us capable of saving ourselves through faith, then Christ's death becomes unnecessary. The canons is working out the consistent implication of prevenient grace. 
The Reformed view maintains that faith does not save; Christ saves. Faith is the God-given instrument by which believers take hold of Christ's accomplished work. Consequently, Christ's prayer for “those You have given Me” assures us that the Lord's people will necessarily receive his blessings. This is not UniversalIn verses like John 17:20–24, Christ extends His prayer beyond the disciples to include “those who will believe through their word.” When people ask, “Well why do missions?” The reason: God uses a means to accomplish his goal. So, simply here Christ is laying out the general call of the gospel will go forth. When we properly understand that God calls his people normally through the gospel and sees to it that the call will be effective in His Spirit then we have every reason to engage in missions. We know that the work will have an end. This is later in the Canons of Dordt. 
Christ is very specific about who receives his work. His intent is not to save humanity in general, but to redeem the people who are one with Him and the Father. His work is going to be applied to the people who will dwell with God forever. 
We might wonder if we are part of Christ's people. When we consider Judas and Peter we see a stark contrast. Judas,(the “son of perdition” (v. 12) betrays Christ. He takes his life out of remorse rather than turning to Christ. (This is a very specific case of suicide, and not a universal commentary). Peter turns to Christ in remorse. The reprobate never sees Christ as a solution. Peter sees Christ as the only solution. Judas is not having a momentary crises, but it is a whole mindset that fails to see Christ's mission. So, when we doubt if Christ loves us then we should believe Christ. One who does not have Christ does not care about Christ. If we struggle in our assurance it testifies that we are God's child, and so believe! Walk in Christ becasue he is your redeemer. 
Christ's high priestly intercession continues today. We have the snippet of Christ praying for the protection of his people. We should never minimize prayer. If our Lord does it as the first order to protect his people then we should be following our savior's lead.ConclusionWe need to realize that limited atonement is not cold exclusivism but comforting assurance. It teaches believers that salvation depends wholly on Christ, not our pedigree, or our performing for God's attention. Faith is how we take hold of Christ. Faith does not save. Faith in Christ saves. It is Christ who saves and faith is the means whereby we take hold of Christ and his his distinc benefits. 
Christ's prayer in John 17 shows His compassionate heart: He wants His people with Him in glory. Christ longs for full fellowship, Christ continues to intercede on our behalf. 
Thus, the doctrine calls Christians to humility, prayer, and gratitude. We are humbled not in our choice for God, but in God's choice of us through Christ.
Because the Redeemer has accomplished His mission and continues to intercede, our salvation stands secure. His faithfulness, not ours, sustains us. That is our peace. Let us walk in faith discerning how to live as living sacrifices unto him.

IntroductionLimited atonement sounds as if the Lord is setting up an excluvie group or there is not enough for everyone. Far from portraying Christ's atonement as scarce or exclusive, Scripture presents it as infinitely sufficient for the whole human race. However, Christ's work is only applied to the sheep. So, Christ's work is not a scarce resource, but it is only applied to the elect. This is not something for the elite because none of us deserve Christ's work. We are all sewer dwellers who need to be lifted up by the scruff of our necks.Who Are the Sheep?John 10 divides humanity into two groups: Christ's sheep and those who are not His sheep. Christ lays down His life for His sheep. The Canons of Dordt teach us that Christ's death is infinitely sufficient. This means that if the human race continued to generate generations forever that Christ could save ever last one of them. However, God chose only to apply Christ's work to his sheep or his elect people. These sheep are not identified by elite status or by receiving mystical confirmation of election. Jesus explains that His sheep are simply those who hear His voice, and follow him. How do we know if we heard his voice? Do you believe the Gospel? Do you believe that Christ is the God man? Do you believe that Christ is your savior? Well, then you are one of his sheep. The problem with this doctrine's title, “Limited Atonement” is we think we know the number of the elect. However, we have no idea how many people will be in heaven. It is not for us to know. We are simply called to preach the gospel, call Christ's sheep, and follow his lead as faithful sheep.What Does It Mean That Christ Lays Down His Life for the Sheep?Article 4 of the Canons highlights the unique value of Christ's death: only the God-man can offer a sacrifice sufficient to satisfy God's requirements. Christ is both truly human (creature who offended) and truly divine (able to bear the infinite wrath). Christ is our unique savior, but the beauty of John 10 is that he is also our shepherd. His self-giving is radical. He gives his life so his sheep can have life. Christ intentionally lays down His life because this is the only way to secure His people. We do not walk in a dead shepherd, but the shepherd who also takes it up. Christ's work definitively assures us. This is why we sometimes say that this is definite atonement. What Does “Limited Atonement” Actually Mean?The doctrine does not teach scarcity, insufficiency, or elitism. Instead, it affirms:Christ's atonement is infinite in worth and fully sufficient for all if God so chose. The beauty of this is that Christ's sheep not only will hear his voice, but they will obey. As they obey their shepherd they will be lead into the heavenly pastures.Assurance comes through believing Christ, not by calculating how many are saved or whether the “supply” of atonement has run out. Christ knows His sheep, calls them, gives them eternal life, and promises that no one can snatch them from His hand.ConclusionWe need to remember that the doctrine of limited atonement or definite atonement is not meant to unsettle believers but to anchor them. Christ never reveals the number of the redeemed or invites us to speculate on who is in the flock. Rather, He directs us to one simple question: Do you hear the Shepherd's voice and believe the gospel? If so, His atonement is yours, His life is yours, and His protection is yours. The doctrine is therefore not restrictive but profoundly comforting: the Good Shepherd lays down His life with purpose, gathers His sheep across history, and guarantees that His sheep will dwell with him him in glory. Let us hear the voice of our shepherd. Let us walk in the Good Shepherd, who not only laid down his life, but who also took it up again.

This week we began a series on the Canons of Dort, exploring the five points of Calvinism. These doctrines—Total Depravity, Unconditional Election, Limited Atonement, Irresistible Grace, and Perseverance of the Saints—show God's sovereign, transforming grace. Far from prideful or fatalistic, they call believers to humility, worship, and confidence in God's faithful work.
