5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
6Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
7Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
matt 20:
28Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
The many Jesus gave His Life for logically [ spiritual logic] denotes some are excluded..
This is percieved in pauls teaching of election..rom 11:
5Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
6And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
7What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
That is, the many are the election of grace, and the rest are those excluded from the many, who are blinded..
So Jesus in matt 20 28 is saying he gave his life a ransom for the election of grace..
Paul says he gave his life for all in 1 tim 2 6..
This phrase is descriptive of numerical perfection, like the symbolical 144 000 in the book of revelation..rev 7:
3Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
This is Gods way of communicating, that the totality of the Israel of God is known by him, in each generation of world history, and their spiritual enlightment of the gospel is ensured..So the 144000 is the all paul is referring to in 1 tim 2 6..all of the many..
The whole number of the many, the sheep jn 10:
16And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. all of the many..all the sheep ..
all the children heb 2:
13And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me.
14Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
all the the elect..matt 24:
31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other
his own elect lk 18:
7And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
all the many sons heb 2:
10For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
Notice, he is the captain of their salvation..their denotes specific group or people, not all..
So the proper biblical understanding of christ having given his life a ransom for all, needs to be understood withing the anology and symmetry of overall scripture truth..
He gave His life for all of the many..
and they shall recieve inward testimony in due time..
and its this truth that paul and all true gospel preachers have been ordained to preach..1 tim 2:
7Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.
amen to the Glory of God..
