Flip question always get is how sinners resist God work for salvation, but all of Hi sown shall indeed get saved!

 

John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: And all those who are sons and daughters of God have the blessed hope of seeing Jesus and being like Him when he shall appear to take his children to a new heavenly home. 1 John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

 

Election is not salvific--it's for purpose. God chose Abraham to bring Himself a Family. God chose Christ to bring this covenant into reality. Christ is the primo Elect One. We become part of the elect through Faith in Christ. Abraham is the father of Faith and we become "sons of the household" when we Trust in Christ, receiving the promises and blessings given to Abraham and His family. There can be much to write concerning this. But this is the Gist. Christ is the Elect One from eternity past to bring into being a Kingdom and Family and People that will worship and adore the King forever. Abraham is the family in time and space that brings about an inheritance of God's blessings and promises.

 

I'm sorry sir, I disagree.
To me, election is to salvation ( 2 Thessalonians 2:13, Ephesians 1:4-5, Romans 8:28-30 ), but I do agree that it is for a purpose.

I'm reminded of this passage when I read your quote above:

" Now I say, [That] the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
2 but is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
4 but when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
5 to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ." ( Galatians 4:1-7 ).

Jon,
The above tells me the following:

1) The example is given that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ with a servant of the household though the heir is ( and will be ) lord of all in that household.
2) The heir is also under tutors and governors ( teachers and overseers ) until the time that their father's appointment becomes a reality and they assume their role.
3) Believers, when they were children ( did you catch that? Believers in Christ are yet children even before they are made aware of their salvation, that is how I read it ), were in bondage ( servitude ) under the elements of the world.
4) When the fulness of time was come, God sent His son ( made of a woman, made under the Law of Moses )…
5) To redeem them ( the elect ) that were under the Law...so that we ( those that would believe, His elect ) might receive the adoption of sons.
6) And because we ( the whosoever believeth, from the heart ) are sons ( not "will be" ), God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba, Father".
7) We, as God's elect are no more servants, but sons. If we are sons, then we are also heirs of God through Christ.

In other words, I don't see this passage describing what I've underlined in your quote above ( a "will be" with respect to becoming an heir ) or becoming ( to go from being one to the other ) sons of the household;
But we "already are" when it comes to being part of God's household, even before we have believed.

What do you see when you read this passage, if I may ask?

 

This whole thing is a moot-point since Saul was God's chosen unto rule, not salvation.

 

Pardon the interruption of the fray.

Let us note three things about being chosen.

1) We are always chosen for a purpose, and if the purpose is salvation, that is the result.
2) Were we chosen corporately, as a group, say those to be redeemed through faith, or individually for salvation, those placed into Christ and thus saved forever.
3) When an individual is chosen for salvation, then they become part of the corporate group, as they are redeemed, that was chosen before creation.

Really simple when you think about it...

Carry on...

 

Barry ignores all other verses about our adoption and isolates only Romans 8:23 with no concern for context or scripture interpreting scripture.
He's singularly focused on his false doctrine.

 

Not according to Eph 1.5 and Rom 8.23 .
We become a child of God through the new birth John 1.12 , not Adoption . We recieve the Spirit Of it but THE adoption is the redemption of the body .

 

To bad I cannot thank you for presenting your opinion as to the answers of your questions.

Many verses include the purpose for the choice, such as 2 Thessalonians 2:13 which indicates the Thessalonians were chosen for salvation. OTOH, no verse that I know of indicates a choice for no purpose. None, zip, nada.
Corporate election is found throughout scripture, according to Dr. Dan Wallace. "Thus, election is seen to be initiated by God and effected by God. Those who are chosen—whether individuals or groups—become what they are chosen for."
For example, say God chose His "Redeemer" before the foundation of the world, and thus God chose in choosing Him, those who would be redeemed corporately. However, when an individual is indeed redeemed, they become part of the group chosen corporately before creation.

Really simple

 

I guess I don’t see why those verses in Genesis aren’t helpful to you. They give uses of the word that inform you about the word itself.

Might recieve ( future )

 

I interpret the clear first. There is no clearer verse on what the adoption is than Rom 8.23 . It actually says what the Adoption is . Only someone ideologically possessed would miss it .I believe a system is forcing the clear reading of Rom 8 .23 to not be taken as read . " it cant be yet future, because I have doctrines that this messes with if I take it as read . So no , I think we need to get all the other verse put them together with some other presuppositions we have and re interpret Rom 8 . 23 in light of that , thus showing our doctrines are great philosophical reasons why the bible isn't true" .

 

The Bible is clear we were elected by God before the foundation of creation to be in Christ. I don’t see any problem with that.

The problem is Calmenianism because it does not answer the arguments from both sides satisfactorily.

The problem is limiting the atonement to only part of humanity. Was the imputation of Adam’s sin limited to only part of humanity? No it includes infants as well as fetuses.

I have to take the Bible at face value and cannot insert human reasoning to make it understandable for my created mind.

The same problem is found for example with the triunity of the Godhead. No one can fully comprehend how it is that God is a trinity and give a definition of what and how this is true but I have to again accept what is written.


Joy unspeakable full of glory

 

One of the problems with being chosen to be saved is that you don't have a verse that says your predestinated to glorification.

 

All scripture is to be taken as read you don't do this and is why you do not understand scripture.
