Several in here teach they chose God (well, glory to them) while some deny they teach it which is quite interesting. Hmmmm. 
I choose a more biblical doctrine, that God does the choosing, not the doctrines of men like Finney, Sandeman and other heretics who teach contrary to the Scriptures.

Thanks, and you're correct, I haven't lied, yet I see the calling me a liar continues, behavior he said in the past, when he said this about me then, was "childish."
Hmmmm.
Hmmmm.

This is inappropriate behavior. I've lied about nothing, yet you continue to offer baseless accusations.
I think she may have the right to "amen" a post without being badgered over it. Sorry that bothers you so much.

3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4 For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5 he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will
This passage in no way teaches what Calvinism puts forth.
"IN HIM"
God chose the Son before creation, because He truly was one that existed to be chosen, being a person in the Godhead.
Put simply, we are “chosen” because we are in Christ, but we are not chosen to be put into Christ.
Paul is stating is that which Christians have in Christ (v.3), which is exclusive access to God’s spiritual blessings, outside of which, there are zero spiritual blessings.
The Calvinist however, is stating that which an elect group has in the Father, with the result of being spiritually blessed to be chosen to become believers. Thus, Calvinism is in direct opposition of Pauline theology. False teaching!!
He is speaking about the blessings that come from being in the First chosen one>>> Jesus.
