When scripture speaks of election, or “God's Elect”, what does this mean?
I have seen posts which indicate that “God loves all and does not show favoritism”.
  • So, does this indicated that the entire world is included in the “Elect of God” or does it speak of only God's chosen people?
  • If it refers to God's chosen people, can a non-elect person become saved, or can an elect person become lost?
  • If it refers to all men, then why is it even mentioned?
Your thoughts!
God is for us all, otherwise that cross would not have ever happened, in Son going there to begin with, having no need for to be forgiven himself, you think?

Not, understanding the mysteries of God, as started in Genesis 3:15-16 about the Son to come and do what is now done once for us all by Son in the flesh for us to agree to be dead to the first born flesh nature in us, between God and us personally, is For everyone 1 John 2:1-2,12, Ephesians 1:6;7;13, 2 Cor 5:16-20. To trust Phil 1:6. Once believe and ask God Father for the new life, we are given it free of charge from Dad not anyone else, in my honest teaching form God to me, yet not according to religion(s), even though they will say you are, then want and tell you, you have to do to be in. Really? Not from God's view Romans 12:2
To be born again by God Father, not self or anyone else. Whoever is born new by Daddy, PaPa, Father in risen Son for them, know and are in love with Father and all others, automatically also even if someone does them wrong. Which is not putting up with evil. It is overcome evil with God's love in us. working through us, at least me

Died once for us all and did that willingly without any flesh fight back to them, that got him killed, These leaders then, desired to get rid of him, since people were not going to them for anymore advice, since he came here to relief people under stress over those hoarding ownership over the people they wanted to control and be god themselves. so, people would need to pay tribute to them, is what was going on then and still going on today as well. Jesus risen and will never die again is risen where new life for each person in belief to God over this will see if not yet see it yet. many a trying and have got doubt in them from people and themselves as well, that makes it harder to see truth over errors here in this world still, people wanting to control other people. Let go of self and trust God to lead in God's mercy and truth for you too, thank you God
God said in Isaiah 7:9

Authorized (King James) Version

9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established.


If you (ye) will not believe in what God has said or done, how will anyone be established by God. I see that verse much deeper than Ephraim is Samaria and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son
Now, we have God's Son Jesus for us as risen where new life in Daddy's Spirit and Truth is given, John 4:23-24
therefore what are we the people doing, going to man to get established and not be established, are you established? In God or your church gathering? Have you ended up sinning more than when you first began in that church on the corner of walk don't walk? when God says God does give us freedom it is not to sin more, this teaches each personally in 1 John 2:27 to love in God's mercy and truth of Son for us period, and one becomes new in love and mercy to all as the response to God in thanksgiving and praise over it, at least to me
Turn to God from within us and ask God to know truth in you, placed by God in you, over error in this world we are in today, thank you Father as you know in trust who is who and what is what each person's motive is, and therefore God, you decide who sees and who does not yet see, knowing what is best for each person, thank you Lord Romans 8:15-16 see Jeremiah 29:11, God does just loves us all.
thank you, for not wanting anyone to perish, that is true Love from you to us all thank you and why it seems it has taken a long time, yet not really, us being in time and you not
A day is like a thousand years to you as a thousand years are as a day wow, woe is me I trust for your tongs as in Isaiah 6:1-7 tells me about
