He wasn't kidding with the reprobate or any less sincere. I also do believe that Christ's death was sufficient for the elect only simply because that's who God chose to make it sufficient for. But I do understand in the hypothetical sense Christ's death was sufficient for every single sinner on the planet, simply because his death is THAT powerful; nevertheless it was designed only to secure and satisfy the debt of sin of the elect only.

I guess that puts me as a moderately high Calvinist?
