What does it mean to be a chosen people of God?

Answered in 1 source

Being a chosen people means that God has selected individuals for salvation and sanctification, according to His eternal purpose.

The doctrine of being a chosen people reflects God's sovereign grace, indicating that He has predetermined our salvation and sanctification (Ephesians 1:4-5). This selection is not based on any merit or action on our part but solely on God’s love and grace. As described, it emphasizes the intimate relationship between the believer and God, where we become part of His family, recipients of His grace, and called to demonstrate His glory in our lives. This doctrine assures us of our identity in Christ and encourages us to live in a manner worthy of our calling.
