In Daniel's lecture on "Amyraldism", he says that he's never found in any of Calvin's writings any indication that Calvin believed in Limited Atonement. Since Limited Atonement looks totally Biblical to me, it's difficult for me to believe that Calvin didn't believe in it. But I haven't read everything that Calvin wrote either. So here's the second question: Did Calvin believe in Limited Atonement, and if so, where's the proof?
I agree with William's information re: A.W. Pink. He matured as he grew in the faith and became more "mainstream" in regards to the doctrines of grace.

As for Calvin not teaching Limited Atonement, that is almost laughable. There have been several attempts to make John Calvin an Arminian over the years which of course have failed miserably. I think the two linked items below should suffice as a rebuttal to the assertion:

1. [i]Calvin and the Calvinists[/i] - book review.

2. John Calvin's Position on the Atonement, by Paul Helm.
