F A C T S
Here's a great acronymn take-off on the famous (and incorrect) TULIP of Calvinism:
F reed to believe by God's grace A tonement for All C onditional Election T otal Depravity S ecurity in Christ
But I would say that "Atonement for All" means simply that Jesus died for all people, not just some (1 John 2:2) and "Conditional Election" means that this atonement is only effective when we utilize our free will to accept Jesus' salvific life, suffering, death, and resurrection.

I didn't write it...I just like it.
