What does the Bible say about God's sovereign election?

Answered in 10 sources

The Bible teaches that God's sovereign election is His unchanging choice of certain individuals for salvation before the foundation of the world (Romans 9:11).

God's sovereign election is a central theme in Scripture, emphasizing that God's choice is not based on any foreseen merit or action by the individual, but solely on His mercy and purpose (Romans 9:11). Ephesians 1:4-5 states that believers were chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world, underscoring the eternal nature of God's plan for salvation. This reflects God's glory and grace, as He acts according to His will to save those whom He has set apart for Himself.
