What does the Bible say about the remnant?

Answered in 5 sources

The Bible indicates that the remnant refers to a small group of true believers who remain faithful to God amidst widespread unfaithfulness.

The doctrine of the remnant is readily seen in both the Old and New Testaments, where God's people are depicted as a small group distinct from the larger body of professing believers. Psalm 12:1 highlights the scarcity of the godly, crying out for help as they witness faithlessness in the world. This theme recurs throughout Scripture, as seen in Isaiah's acknowledgment that unless the Lord preserves a remnant, His people would be like Sodom and Gomorrah. The remnant remains a consistent theological underpinning, emphasizing God's faithfulness to a chosen minority who rely solely on His grace and mercy.
