Who are the elect of God? | GotQuestions.org
Who are the chosen, and who truly holds the final choice in salvation—God or man? The biblical doctrine of election is not about if God chooses, but how He chooses. For centuries, two main views on predestination have been debated: the prescient view, where God’s election is based on His foreknowledge of an individual’s free will, versus the Augustinian view, which teaches that God’s sovereign grace is the sole basis for granting faith. This distinction raises critical questions about God's sovereignty and human responsibility. If God has ultimate control, does this negate man's free will, and why should we preach the gospel? Examining the most in-depth passage on the topic, Romans 9, provides the key to understanding how God’s purpose of election works and why the creature has no right to accuse the Creator of injustice. In this video, Pastor Nelson answers your question: Who are the elect of God?
