Hypothetical universalism

Hypothetical Universalism is a Reformed limited atonement variant doctrine which states that Jesus died sufficiently for every person, thus being sent to the whole world as a sacrifice for sins, however, his death is only efficient for those who are elect, or predestined for salvation. Hypothetical Universalism systems, such as those held by Zacharias Ursinus, John Calvin, William Twisse, John Davenant, and the Heidelberg Catechism are commonly accepted as being proper to the Reformed Tradition, especially amongst the Dutch Reformed Churches and the Reformed Anglican faction in the Church of England.
