I am not a Christian, so, of course, there are going to be some things you regard as evil that I do not.
Coming from the person who authored the internet article, "I Want To Be Gay", authors soft core adult sites, makes lewd underground films, introduces young girls into a life of pornography and abuse, and promotes himself as a former media coordinator for Atheists United, is it any wonder his chosen screen name is about a dark pentecost?!

That is an odd statement that shows more your earnest desire than your knowledge.
I like John Owen. His commentary on Hebrews was highly useful to me when I wrote my book on the Blood Doctrine, because John Owen was attacking exactly the same beliefs I was attacking, regarding Christ's work on the cross. In Owen's time, the people who held the doctrine were called Socinians, who were predecessors to Unitarians.
I believe that John Owen is incorrect about the doctrine of limited atonement. I also believe that God only offers Salvation to man; man may accept it or reject it. Now, even Calvinists could agree that man may accept or reject Salvation--and Scripture forces them to do so, because Scripture records many instances in which people or groups of people rejected God's Salvation. The key is the reason that people accept or reject God's Salvation; the Calvinist tells us that people accept God's Salvation because those people are predestined to accept God's Salvation. I do not claim that is incorrect, as Scripture states that "those whom he foreknew he predestined." But, the point remains that people either accept or reject Salvation.
It is not possible to reject something that was not offered. If Christ did not die for all men, universally, then He did not offer Salvation to all men. If Christ only died for the Redeemed, then no man could reject Christ, because they were never offered Christ.
Those who looked at the brass serpent that Moses raised in the wilderness were saved from the death of the firey serpents that bit the Israelites. Those who did not look, died. The serpent was universally offered to all; those who were biten could accept or reject the offer.
