We study, preach and teach what the Bible actually says, not what we want it to say.----As we study the Doctrines of Grace, we come to the second point...----The Second Point - Unconditional Election - unearned, undeserved, unconditional----The words we choose - unconditional election - will cause many to cry out, -Wait a minute- But what about unconditional love------In the moments of pain and tears, in loneliness and despair - is there a greater need than a love that will not let us go- A love not dependent on our fickle feelings or erratic behavior. That someone, somewhere, would know me- my secrets, my sins, my weakness, my ugliness- and love me anyway-------Definition- Unconditional election is God-s free choice before creation, not based on foreseen faith, to which traitors he will grant faith and repentance, pardoning them and adopting them into his everlasting family of joy.
