There are some, even today, who claim that Charles Haddon Spurgeon held a view of a universal atonement. But to the contrary, Spurgeon held tenaciously to the biblical doctrine of "Limited Atonement" or otherwise known as "Particular Redemption" which teaches that the Lord Christ died for a
particular [i.e., select, specific, numbered] group of sinners; aka: the elect. In this sermon, delivered on February 28, 1858, at the Music Hall, Royal Surrey Gardens, Spurgeon expounded on the text, Matthew 20:28:
Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a ransom for many.
Let there be no doubt as to what Spurgeon believed concerning the purpose and extent of the atonement after reading his sermon.
