Written to the Jews first, and now to us the Gentiles, as all now one in Christ!
This does not make you elect. Because election is not necessary for Salvation
Turning to Christ is repentance and believing in Christ we are saved.

The Elect are the ones enabled by God to do just that!

We Gentiles are all able
Prove it with scripture.
Act 28:28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it

Anything can be ELECT including your shoes. The question that needs asking is ELECT TO WHAT?

Its not a MAGICAL HOLY WORD, Elect just means chosen.

Then only Jews are chosen. There is no evidence Gentiles are chosen.The whole of the Bible is addressed to the Jew the Gentiles are an add in by the grace of God to make the Jews jealous. The term elect is always referring to the Jews

Just seems to me if Gentiles can be elect and you have no proof then you are wrong. If it isn't in scripture maybe it's in your philosophy. Philosophy is not scripture but some guys idea of how he thinks it should be. Calvinism is a false doctrine, Election is for God's particular Jews. Not all Jews Just some of them.

You just ignored the proof.

Your false statement hangs around your neck. Election is not a requirement for Salvation another false assumption by Calvinist. There is only one requirement called faith or belief in the Lord Jesus Christ. You still have not proven you are elect. LOL

Yes Election is a requirement for salvation. That is who Christ died for and obtained Salvation for. 2 Tim 2:10

Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
