All manner of sin will be forgiven

However, He did not die for the sin of unbelief.

Yes, He did John 3:16 and it's up to us to recognize and accept Him to be the Lord in our lives.

1 John 2:2 seems to say He died for the sins of everyone.

1 John 2:2 (KJV)
2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

Does this also include everyone who has lived and will live?

It would be accurate to say that the Atonement secured by Jesus is capable of covering the sins of all mankind,, but because not all mankind will accept the covering,, then in the end,, the Atonement of Jesus will not be covering the sins of all mankind..

Christ's agony on the cross is for the sins of mankind, for all who will receive His Salvation. Unhappily, there are many who choose evil, and frankly, they do not want to be with the children of the Most High...…….

Yes

Except for the sin of unbelief.

“He who does not believe is condemned already, because they have not believed. (Not because they have sinned)

After Adam was disobedient to the WORD of G0D sin entered the world and sin also brought physical death eventually.Man would have to be perfectly righteous by his own strength In order to have a relationship with a righteous GOD

But man could not be perfectly righteous by his own will power because of the weakness of his flesh so man would have come short of the glory of GOD but GOD did not leave man In that condition and sent JESUS to be the atoning sacrifice for ALL

And JESUS started a new covenant that man could be acceptable to GOD by believing the WORD of GOD.

The Issue under the New covenant Is about believing.

Yes. Here is just one of many Scriptures that clearly teach this truth.

All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. (Isa 53:6)

What is the meaning of iniquity? It means both sins and the punishment for sins.

He died for the sins of the world and in John 3:16.(KJV).." that whosoever believeth in him should not perish ". This is the Key to Salvation and everlasting life. Everyone has the Key, IF they will use it.

Joh 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Jesus takes away the sins of the world so that would include all mankind, and everybody can have their sins forgiven.

1Jn 2:2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

Isa 59:1 Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
Isa 59:2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.

Jesus takes away the sins of anybody that confesses they are a sinner, and repents of their sins, and accepts Jesus, and if the blood of Jesus will take away the sins of the whole world then anybody can be saved, for if their sins can be forgiven then they can have a relationship with God.

Joh 1:9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

Jesus lights every person that is born in to this world, which means everybody has the chance to see the light of Jesus and be saved.

1Ti 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
1Ti 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

God wants all people to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth, and does not hinder anybody from salvation.

Act 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent.

God commands all people to repent so everybody can have their sins forgiven.

Rev 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

The Spirit and the bride say, Come, and anybody can have that salvation.

Act 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
Act 10:35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

Rom 10:11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
Rom 10:12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
Rom 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

God does not respect one person above the other, so all people can be saved.

Rom 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.

Jas 2:9 But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
Jas 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

1Co 4:7 For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?

Gal 6:3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

Isa 40:17 All nations before him are as nothing; and they are counted to him less than nothing, and vanity.

All have sinned and come short of the glory of God, so there is no reason for God to choose certain people over other people, for if you sin in the least of the law you offend in all of the law, which puts everyone on the same level in the eyes of God.

Sin separates us from God, and everybody has sinned and come short of the glory of God, and if you offend in the least of the law you offend in all, so anybody can have salvation, and God would not choose some people over other people based on their sins they did, and all sins can be forgiven.

Some people say that God chooses who will be saved, and not saved, without their choice in the matter, but that is not scriptural, but He gave us a choice in our salvation, for His kingdom is true love, not robotic love, and He is not evil to condemn people that is not their fault for they were not chosen.

Jesus takes away the sins of the world, and lights every person that is born in this world, but a person has to accept the truth of Jesus, and God, and His ways, for their sins to be forgiven and taken away to be saved.

And if they have the key but do not use it occasionally do they have eternal life? Does the key take on the nature of the user? Or is it eternal as in no nature as a beginning and it cannot deny itself if the sin has been atoned for that person has passed from death to newly created life?

Do we minimize the grace of God doing respite to it as in crucify Christ over and over to public shame as if one demonstration of the Holy Spirit pouring out his unseen Spirit on flesh was not enough.

2 Timothy 2:12-14 King James Version (KJV) If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us: If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.

Since *all* is mentioned twice in that verse, and *every one* is mentioned once, what you are doing is blatantly twisting the Word of God.

And it does not say "everyone given to Him by the Father", so that is what you wish to add to Scripture. If God had meant that, then He would have said that.

Calvinists should be ashamed for trying to pervert the Gospel.

When the word, many, has been used it refers to th emany who will receive the free gift. Natually, and , unhappily, there are many who will choose evil over God who will not accept the free gift simply because they dod not wish to be in the presence of God's glory, preferring their own darkness. Now this made relatively clear, Jesus died for the sins of all men.
