Bible Question: Do you believe in being chosen? |
Bible Answer: Bruce7, It might help if you could qualify your question with a reference as to what exactly your looking for:-) It's a bit open-ended. I would have to believe in being chosen as scripture tells me I am. Particularly Col. 3:12: "So, as those who have been chosen of God..." 2nd Thessalonians tells us that "...we should always give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation..." Obviously there are numerous other references such as 1 Tim. 5:21, 2 Tim. 2:10, Tit. 1:1 and 1 Pet. 2:9, etc. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
