Malista is not monos !

Clement 190 A.D.

All men are Christ's, some by knowing Him, the rest not yet.

He is the Savior, not of some (only) and of the rest not.

(i.e., He is actually Savior of all)

For how is He Lord and Savior if He is not Lord and Savior of all ??

But He is indeed Savior of those who believe * * while of those who do not believe He is Lord, until having become able to confess Him, they obtain through Him the benefit appropriate and suitable (to their case) He by the Father?s will directs the salvation of all

For all things have been ordered, both universally and in part, by the Lord of the universe; with a view to the salvation of the universe.

** But needful correction, by the goodness of the great overseeing Judge, through (by means of) the attendant angels, through various prior judgments, through the final (pantelous) judgment, compels even those who have become still more callous to repent* . - Strom. lib. vii. pp. 702-6, Cologne, 1688.

"God IS the salvation of all mankind, especially those who believe/trust in Him. Command & teach these things."

"especially" = malista

"only" = monos
