Giving Calvinism a ... longer glance

Calvinist believes in an atonement that is limited in scope (Jesus died only for the elect) but unlimited in its effectiveness (all the elect will be saved). Whereas the non-Calvinist believes in an atonement that is unlimited in scope (Jesus died for everyone everywhere) but ultimately limited in its effectiveness (only some will trust Jesus for themselves).

This non-Calvinist believes we do not have to, or ought to, choose. I live with what I consider to be the Biblical tension unresolved.
