For whom did Christ die according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Christ died for the ungodly, representing those chosen by God for salvation (Romans 5:6).

According to Romans 5:6, 'Christ died for the ungodly.' This refers specifically to those who are sinners and undeserving of God's grace. The biblical perspective emphasizes that Christ's atonement was not made for the self-righteous or angels, but for God's elect and those who recognize their sinfulness. This theme is echoed throughout Scripture, including in Jesus’ statement that He came to seek and to save that which was lost (Luke 19:10). Recognizing that Christ's death was for a specific people gives believers confidence in their salvation.
