I have told you before, but I will tell you again, so you can forget again. God by his foreknowledge saw that no one would seek him and none would do any good, no, not one.(Ps 53:2-3). The action that God took, which was to choose an elect people out of those that would not seek him and give them to his Son to cleanse them from all their sins making them holy and without blame (Eph 1:4) and after they were born into this world God regenerated them and put his Holy Spirit within them (Epg 2:5) so that he would have a people that would praise and worship him. Had God not done this, there would have been no one to worship and praise him. The natural man cannot discern spiritual things and will never believe in spiritual laws of God, repent of a spiritual law that he thinks that it is foolish, accept Jesus as his spiritual savor. Believing, accepting, repenting, confessing are all products of being regenerated. Maybe if God had not given them a free will as to how they wanted to live their lives he might not have had to choose a people.
