i say everyone, in that Jesus gave everyone the chance through his sacrifice. true, not everyone will take advantage of this, but without him, well… all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. I stand by my ‘everyone’
the difference is the choice. i’m not up on my bible quotes as i should be, but somewhere, it says something along the line of, there is no greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. so, that’s the real difference. anyone who sacrifices themselves for a friend is showing the greatest love, Jesus just did it for everyone.
