Jesus is the elect..Israel as God's firstborn son is the elect . Did Jesus die for himself?
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
So if Jesus Christ is Elect, His Body is also, for the Head and Body are One !

I dont follow you. There are two worlds in view.2 Cor 5:19 the World of the Elect, no sin charged to it, then the condemned world 1 Cor 11:32 which has its sins charged to it, thats why its condemned.
19To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
Where is the phrase ' world of elect ' please?

NKJV
that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
NASB
namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
NLT
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
ASV
to wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not reckoning unto them their trespasses, and having committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
Its not found even in the calvinist bible ( ESV )
that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation
Irrelevant question. Im speaking of a world of folk that do not have their sins charged to them 2 Cor 5:19 and a world of people who do 1 Cor 11:32
NLT
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting PEOPLE SINS against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
case in point, thanks for demonstrating.
the Bible says He tasted death for "every man"
the Bible says He gave Himself the atonement for "not only for (believers), but also for the whole world"
you reject that, claiming it says the opposite of what it says.
so, no, dude, you definitely do not "go with what it says" -- you go with what you say, or rather, what your teachers have taught you, instead of what the scripture actually says.
i think you should just admit it.
and the really messed up thing?
there's not any harm to your belief in reformed theology. the atonement is still limited and salvation is still unrevokable - it is only that He holds out His hands, willing to rescue and redeem all who will come to Him, to give whosoever may thirst or hunger, water and bread without cost, so that they will be filled -- but it is only the elect of God, foreknown & predestined, who come. the atonement is not limited by God's willingness but by man's unwillingness. you do not have to constantly, brazenly reject the Word of God in order to hold onto those beliefs; you just have to admit you were wrong and that God's workings are more complex than what you originally believed them to be. it's to His glory

lol, none of that helps you. 1 Jn 2:2 is the World of the Elect, its the World that God doesnt charge with sin 2 Cor 5:19
You keep using this strange term ' world of elect ' without justification . Which verse says this ' world of elect ' .
' World ' is not positive. Its bad . Thats how the bible uses it . You've invented a phrase to make the bible say what you want . Which is bad .

Christ died for the Elect world, or the World of His Elect, and because of that, they dont have their sins charged to them 2 Cor 5:19. The people Christ tasted death for are part of the world that doesnt have its sins charged to them.
I've given all the usages in scripture. I've given all the verses where ' world ' is used . You've given me your opinion and a made up phrase ? why?
And again . ' The world of the elect ' . This phrase does not exist . notice.

Again easy, He died for the whole world of the elect, jew and gentile.

No' world of elect ' phrase again. But ' whole world ' is there . How much clearer could you want it ? lol good grief man . It doesn't say ' whole world of elect ' , ' whole world of calvinists ' ," whole world of vegans ' . It says not our sins only ,but the sins of THE WHOLE WORLD ' No person is left out that verse . You couldn't make it any more clear if you tried .
Why doesn't it say ' the elect world ' ? Is there no way those exact words could have been used ? Are there no Greek words to use ? . See you can't use that argument for what I'm saying . I say that Paul and John did have a way of saying what they wanted to say . The English has no issue. Look here it is without any qualifier.
