C.H. Spurgeon on Limited Atonement
https://reasonabletheology.org/c-h-spurgeon-limited-atonement/
I would rather believe a limited atonement that is efficacious for all for whom it was intended, than a universal atonement that is not efficacious for anybody, except the will of men be added to it.

As for a hazy atonement which atones for everybody in general, and for nobody in particular, — an atonement made equally for Judas and for John, I care nothing for it; but a literal, substitutionary sacrifice, Christ vicariously bearing the wrath of God on my behalf, this calms my conscience with regard to the righteous demands of the law of God, and satisfies the instincts of my nature which declare that, as God is just, he must exact the penalty of my guilt.

Titus 2:13b-14
“Our great God and Savior Jesus Christ…gave himself for us to redeem us (the elect, the chosen regenerate believers) from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.”
Acts 5:31
“Christ is exalted to be a Prince and a Saviour, to give repentance and remission of sins.”
Christ gave himself for us, in our room and stead, to satisfy offended justice for all those whose iniquities were laid upon him, and for whom he died. Now, did Christ stand in the stead of all men? Did he satisfy divine justice for the sins of millions, who yet suffer the vengeance of eternal fire, for the same sins themselves? Or did Christ make satisfaction for a peculiar number only, who shall never come into condemnation, but enjoy eternal life, as the purchase and fruit of his death?
We have been often told that Christ died conditionally for all men, but absolutely for no man, that he procured reconciliation and remission of sins for all men. But how low a notion of redemption is it to say that Christ made only a conditional purchase, and left it in the power of man to render it effectual, by believing, or to make it null and void by unbelief. That without faith no man can enjoy eternal redemption is certain; but that Christ has left it to “men to make void the ends of his death, and the intention of his redeeming love”, as they please, is contrary to Scripture.
Faith is not of a man’s self, it is the gift of God (Ephesians 2:8), but it is also the purchase of Christ’s blood, and is certainly wrought in the hearts of the redeemed by the Holy Spirit, on the account of the Father’s election and Christ’s redemption (Titus 1:1), therefore it is styled “the faith of God’s elect, obtained through the righteousness of God our Saviour” (2 Peter 1:1).
Christ said, that his sheep shall hear his voice (John 10:16). Christ spoke not doubtfully, but with certainty and resolution; he did not say, they shall hear my voice, if they will.
