The Parting of His Raiment

Hi O____,
You are not wrong. Christ has saved the whole world. The whole world is saved by Christ’s propitiatory sacrifice.
Never forget, it is the sum of God’s Word which constitutes Truth:

Psa 119:160 The sum of Your word is truth, And every one of Your righteous ordinances is everlasting. (YLT)

1Co 15:22  For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
1Ti 4:10  For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially [ not exclusively] of those that believe.
1Jn 2:2  And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

The “parting of His garments” tells us simply that those who reject Christ cannot receive “the sum of His righteous Word.” Verses like those above are avoided as if they were leprous.

Rev 19:8  And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
