What does the Bible say about the elect of God?

Answered in 6 sources

The Bible teaches that the elect of God are chosen by Him before the foundation of the world for salvation through Christ.

The term 'elect' in the Bible refers to those whom God has chosen for salvation. This is affirmed in passages like Ephesians 1:4-5, where Paul writes that God chose us in Him before the foundation of the world that we should be holy and blameless before Him in love. This election is an act of God's sovereign will, carried out according to His good pleasure, and is not based on any actions or decisions of the individuals selected but solely on God's grace and purpose.
