How do we know that Christ's death was for all men?

Answered in 1 source

The doctrine of particular redemption teaches that Christ's death was specifically for His elect, not for every individual without exception.

According to the sermon, the assertion that Christ died for all men without exception is contrary to the teaching of Scripture. Acts 20:28 focuses on the church as the entity purchased with Christ’s blood, indicating that this act of redemption is limited to God's chosen people. This belief, often referred to as particular redemption, articulates that Christ's atonement is sufficient for all, but efficient only for the elect. This ensures that all for whom Christ died will be saved, as His blood is effective to atone for their sins, meeting the full demand of God's justice. Salvation is thus legally secured for His people, a vital element that upholds the glory of God in salvation.
