H. Orton Wiley on the Universal Scope of the Atonement
provided by SEA member Roy Ingle
The following is taken from Dr. H. Orton Wiley’s book Introduction to Christian Theology (pp. 234-235):

Redemption is therefore universal or general in the provisional sense, but special or conditional in its application to the individual.
