You have been refuted with plenty of scripture and the lexicons. You have no legs left to stand on as they have just been cut off by the Sword of the Spirit- the Word of God.

1 John 2:2- you are calling God a liar as John says in his epistle.

That verse says nothing about Christ died for all without exception. Such a verse doesnt exist ! Quit wresting scripture.

 

[Pancho Frijoles]

That verse says nothing about Christ died for all without exception. Such a verse doesnt exist ! Quit wresting scripture.

The context of the verse is clear.
The author is writing his letter to Christian believers.
Not the believers of a particular church in the Mediterranean basin, as Paul did, but to Christian believers in general, wherever they live:

I write to you, little children,
Because your sins are forgiven you for His name’s sake.
I write to you, fathers,
Because you have known Him who is from the beginning.
I write to you, young men,
Because you have overcome the wicked one.
I write to you, little children,
Because you have known the Father.
I have written to you, fathers,
Because you have known Him who is from the beginning.
I have written to you, young men,
Because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you,
And you have overcome the wicked one. (1 John 2:12-14)


Therefore, when in 1 John 2:2, the inspired author is saying Christ died for "our" sins, he means the Christian believers, and when he says "for the whole world", he means all other people who are not Christian believers.

"My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world. "

So, there is no room for "exceptions" here. In this verse, "John" (or whoever wrote the epistle) defines only TWO GROUPS for whom Christ died:

Group 1: The Christian believers to whom he's writing the letter
Group 2: All other people not belonging to Group 1.

Group 1 + Group 2 = All human beings.
