CHOSEN, Part 2: Why Election?

A New People for an Old Message: A Study in 1 Peter
Election: The Beautifully Misunderstood Doctrine It’s amazing that this book begins so quickly with this idea. Some of your translations either place it later in the text than earlier or (As The “Message” does) leaves it out all together. However, it is the 5th word in the best Greek manuscripts in existence. It is a doctrine that has often been divisive, and many have relegated talking about doctrines like this to some small group of theological nerds.

God's Electing Love
Did God choose me or did I choose God? That's a question Christians have debated at length down the ages. However, the apostle Paul seemed pretty clear: God chose us before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1:4). In this sermon it is explained why it must be so, and why it is important for us.
