Episode 498: What does the Bible mean by election? Part 1

Hello everyone. In this morning's Bible study we take a look at a very controversial topic for most people, election.

Why is this topic so controversial? It's because people have substituted their feelings of fairness for the word of God and God's righteousness.

Most people view God's word through the eyes of their sinful selves instead of through the eyes of a Holy, Just, and Righteous God. They see themselves as the arbiter of fairness and that if God alone determines who goes to heaven, that isn't fair.

Well, that's not how the LORD God conducts His business. He is alone is sovereign and He does whatsoever He wants in the heavens and in the kingdom of men. NO ONE can stay His hand nor say to Him what are you doing?

What is the criteria for God's election? Let's find out together.

Today's study is 1 hour and 2 minutes in duration. I have broken it into two segments. This is segment 1 of 2 titled What does the Bible mean by election? Part 1
