Check this out ... The pastor of pastors in San Diego about 10 years ago said this verse refers to choosing church leaders, i.e. the 5-fold ministry of Ephesians 4:11.

Almighty God sees everything ... from the beginning to the end. Perhaps, His election depends to some degree on peoples' choices. One thing in Scripture: His election is to bring great praise and glory to Him. I.E. the saving of some shows His great love, mercy, and grace. All the others receive...

I have posted the NT verses showing God gives FAITH to those He chooses ("I will bless whomever I wish and I will curse whomever I wish", etc.). Jesus says Father God must DRAW (compel, drag) people to Him, and these people He will accept. "No one can (is able to) come to Me unless the Father...

Of course everyone needs God's initial grace to be able to be saved and go to heaven. This is a fundamental and foundational Truth. Butski, how is this to be accomplished? No additional grace is required, if people choose to believe in the Gospel. But, additional grace is required ... because...

The Best Election-Faith Verses Acts 3:16 NKJV ------- “Yes, the FAITH which comes through Him …” LB ---------- “FAITH in Jesus’ name — FAITH given to us from God …” Acts 13:48 KJV ------------------- “… as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.” NLT ------------------- “… all who were...

Yes, for example ... Not every passage about the baptism with the Holy Spirit (most of these are in Acts) mentions tongues, which is the confirmation that a person has received this baptism of power and anointing ... administered by Jesus Himself. (This is totally different than the born-again...

The context has nothing to do with faith and belief. This spiritual power is for living the Christian life, being an overcomer, evangelizing, etc.

Thou art the one who is simple! FAITH is given to enable one to BELIEVE what is HEARD. 'Cause w/o it, one iz just NOT able.

Latest verse discovered re: God gives faith to believe: Acts 3:16 NKJV ------- “Yes, the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect soundness …” LB ---------- “Faith in Jesus’ name — faith given us from God — has caused this perfect healing.”

Would you care to show how election (including Gentiles) in Romans 9 has been taken out of context by me?

Usually, I present my case with solid NT verses, but here I will relay a very personal experience (which, I believe, is in line with the NT). On November 28, 2024, at about 3 am, the Lord reminded me of a tremendous experience I had in the Fall of 2012 … I was evangelizing in Eastern Europe...

A case can be made from the NT that ... those who believe were given the necessary belief-faith, i.e. they didn't dream it up by themselves because they are totally unable to do so ... due to their inherited sin nature, and their being captives (slaves) of Satan to do his will.

As usual, WHO is this referring to? Christians who continue to sin habitually? (Of which, there are many.)

IMO, Jesus meant that what His Father sent Him for was finished (completed). Of course, we need to know exactly why He was sent. The Gospels gives us several reasons why He was sent.

Wonderful ... IF only that were true! An NT verse or two would be greatly appreciated by all! IMO, the "all" sins forgiven ... were at the time of conversion, being born-again, etc.

Dost thou knowest what the word "elsewhere" means?
