Why is the concept of being chosen important for Christians?

Answered in 2 sources

Being chosen signifies God's sovereign grace and the assurance of salvation for His people.

The doctrine of being chosen is foundational in Reformed theology, emphasizing that God elects individuals according to His purpose and grace (Ephesians 1:4). This selection is not based on human merit but solely on God's will. As indicated in Zechariah 3, God declares, 'The Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee,' affirming His choice of His people. For Christians, this brings immense comfort and security, knowing that their salvation is guaranteed by God's sovereign decree.
