Did Jesus die only for the sheep (cf. John 10)?

Context is important when you talk about choosing. We have addressed this all before. I cannot heal you, Greg.

As for the debate, I don't know that it was video taped. Both Boyd and Piper were affiliated with Bethel College. Boyd as a theology professor and Piper as Pastor at Bethlehem Baptist, a Baptist General Conference (now Emerge) church. Tom Schreiner also taught theology at the seminary.
Boyd and Piper had a series of debates on campus. Boyd lost the debate, resigned as a professor and formed his own church. A decade later, Boyd's church kicked him out. (See the trend) Boyd has lost all credibility within Evangelical churches as he slips into a view that makes God less and less while lifting up humans higher and higher.

So, you're saying that Boyd was pastor of an evangelical church, and eventually the evangelical church kicked him out?

Isn't it your view (in agreement with Spurgeon) that Calvinism is the gospel? So, all evangelical churches, by definition, being churches that believe the evangel--the gospel--must then be churches that believe Calvinism? So, in short, an evangelical church is nothing other than a Calvinist church.

So, what you're saying is that Boyd formed, and was a pastor of, a Calvinist church, and his Calvinist congregation kicked him out 10 years later?

Boyd "lost all credibility within Evangelical churches", you say? So, evangelical--that is to say, Calvinist--churches had previously considered him a Calvinist? If not, then why would he have ever had credibility with those evangelical--that is, Calvinist churches--to begin with?

You say "Boyd lost the debate". What makes you say so? Did Piper stonewall against all Boyd's questions, and then lie, saying he had already answered them all? Did Piper refer to Boyd by the magic word, "Pelagian"? Did Piper say that Boyd was "twisted like a pretzel"? Did Piper say "LOL" a lot?

One of Calvinism's greatest hypocrisies is that, out of one side of their mouth, they say that Calvinism is the gospel, while, out of the other side of their mouth, they refer to some non-Calvinists as evangelicals, as Christians (which would necessarily imply that these non-Calvinists are elect).
