Who are the elect according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

The elect are those whom God has chosen for salvation, marked by faith in Christ and good works as evidence.

According to the Bible, the elect are those who respond positively to the preaching of the gospel, receiving it in power and demonstrating a transformed life. In 1 Thessalonians 1, the Apostle Paul notes that the elect exhibit distinct characteristics, such as faith, love, and a commitment to the Gospel of grace. Ultimately, while the final determination of who the elect are remains with God, believers are encouraged to examine their lives for evidence of grace at work within them.
