Name: Artichoke-Spinach Casserole
Ingredients: 8 oz Marinated artichoke hearts, drained (2 small jars); save marinade for dressing; 8 oz Cream cheese, softened; 1/2 c Grated parmesan cheese; 2 tb Butter, softened; 20 oz Spinach, cooked, drained and squeezed dry (use 2 packages of thawed frozen spinach, or about 1 1/2 lb cooked, fresh spinach)

One common misunderstanding about the doctrine of limited atonement is that this view somehow lessens or limits the value of the atonement of Christ. Yet exactly the opposite is true. Limited atonement correctly recognizes that Christ’s death was of infinite value and lacking in nothing. In fact, it is of such value that, had God so willed, Christ’s death could have saved every member of the human race. Christ would not have had to suffer any more or do anything different to save every human who ever lived than He did in securing the salvation of the elect. But that was not God’s purpose in sending Christ to the cross. God’s purpose in the atonement was that Jesus would secure forever the salvation of those the Father had given to Him (Hebrews 7:25). Therefore, while Christ’s atonement was limited in its intent or purpose, it was unlimited in its power.
