Matthew Stuckey here from Verity Baptist Manila providing a video on the topic of unconditional election and when it comes to unconditional election the Calvinist loves these words in the Bible where it says chosen or elect and whenever they see that word they say well see we're right the Bible says we're elect. Well the Bible is very clear that yes we are elect but think about this just from a logical standpoint. Look when you have a presidential election you look at the president of our country President Duterte the reason why he's the president is because he was elected. Was it random? No. Why was he elected? Because he received more votes than the other people that he was running against and so when you're looking at just the word elect election is not a random thing but it's actually based on something so the Bible says that we're elect to have this idea well it's just completely random it's just this Calvinistic idea where God just randomly chooses that doesn't really make a whole lot of sense it would have to be based on something and the Bible is very consistent with what that is because over and over again it talks about by believing that is what makes us elect. Thank you and God bless.
