I'm sorry, but you can't have it both ways. Did Christ come to actually save or only make salvation a mere possibility? If the purpose of Christs death was to actually make an atonement, actually redeem, draw all to Him infallibly, He has failed. Since God is incapable of failure, Christs death atoned for all the sins it was supposed to.
He saved absolutely everyone. All sinners have been redeemed by Christ's Death. What is possible is Union with God because of His Work on the Cross. He atoned for every sin of the world. That is what is meant by freeing us from the condemnation, judgement of Adam, DEATH, and sin, our own sin's penalty which is spiritual death. He actually saved us from two kinds of death.

Scripture: But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
your response:Context is everything. The only ones enlightened unto salvation were those in verse 13, "Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Yes, but THEN DON'T TAKE IT OUT OF CONTEXT. Read vs 12 very carefully.

Most of the passages I offered were after Christ's death. I couldn't really understand the rest of your post. You also didn't offer any scriptural support or exegesis.
By your personal opinion. You would have Christ coming to this earth even before Adam sinned. Read the context again.
