What does Romans 11 teach about election?

Answered in 1 source

Romans 11 highlights that God’s election is based on grace, not works, reflecting His sovereign choice.

In Romans 11, the Apostle Paul discusses the idea of election in the context of Israel's unbelief and the inclusion of the Gentiles. The text reveals that God has a remnant among His people chosen by grace, demonstrating that election is not based on human merit or performance but solely on God's sovereign choice (Romans 11:5). This assurance of God's election assures believers that their salvation rests on His unchanging promise and grace, emphasizing that it's God's work from start to finish. God’s choice highlights His divine purpose in grace, reinforcing the foundation of sovereign grace theology.
