  Limited Atonement - Tulipedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Rather, it is intended to suggest and encourage a less confrontational vocabulary -- instead of describing the atonement in negative qualifiers, we should seek to describe it in positive ones, for the atonement secured by Jesus Christ is surely Good News.
While Calvinists limit the atonement quantitatively, Arminians limit it qualitatively; the former insist Christ effectively secured the salvation of those whom the Father gave him, while the latter insist Christ ineffectively secured the salvation of none, putting man merely in a salvable state.
So let it be understood that everyone limits the atonement in one sense or another, the Calvinist and Arminian alike -- while the former may speak of Definite Atonement, the latter may speak only of Indefinite Atonement.

 Apprising Ministries: EMERGENT CHURCH: THE SPIRIT IS INCLUSIVE
This group then goes on to deny cardinal doctrines of the Christian faith, most notably the full Deity of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and as the Lord gives them over to their deception that’s exactly where these men who are some of the top leaders within the Emergent Church will end up going.
The truth is, many of them are already moving in that direction as they begin by denying the vicarious penal substitutionary atonement of Christ’s exclusive Gospel, such as Steve Chalke–a General Session speaker at the upcoming Zondervan’s Pastors Conference 2006.
In part one of this look at the inclusive spirit of the Emergent Church we establish that Brian McLaren is without a doubt one of the most respected leaders of this cultic Emergent Church movement and therefore a primary source concerning its doctrines.

Through God's grace, by faith and repentance, men and women are reconciled to God through forgiveness and by sanctification or theosis to, after death, find their place with God in Heaven, and, at the end of time, to be resurrected from the dead, to die no more.
Crucial beliefs in Christian teaching are Jesus' incarnation, atonement, crucifixion, and resurrection from the dead to redeem humankind from sin and death; and the belief that the New Testament is a part of the Bible.
Many Christians today (and traditionally even more) also hold to supersessionism, the belief that Christianity is the fulfillment of Biblical Judaism.
