Any Arminian I have met will refuse to listen to this logic, and will refuse to give any answer. I only assume they will answer like the above. The alternative is:

If Christ died for all men, then either all men are then saved or Christ is a failure.
All men are not saved.
Christ is a failure.
Owen in The Death of Death basically put it this way: If Christ died for the sins of all men, then necessarily he also died for their sin of unbelief. Thus, the universal salvation, as the title for this thread states.

If he did not die for the sin of unbelief, then how can you set the point for what sins he did or did not die for?
