Election is one of the most hated doctrines of the Bible, because it’s an assault on man-centeredness. Because of this, many find Romans 9 disturbing. In this chapter, the Apostle Paul explains that election is a vindication of the justice of God, yet it’s also an exaltation of His grace in salvation. As we grapple with this text, the question we must ask is this: Would you rather have God who chooses you based on your righteousness or a God who chooses you in spite of your righteousness? The reality is any material advantages you have can’t save you, but Jesus Christ in His mercy is the only way to be rescued from your law-keeping—as you come to Him by faith alone.
