Why Election?

Summary

The sermon explores the doctrine of election, emphasizing that God's choice of a people is an act of grace to be praised, not a concept to be rejected or explained away by human merit. It highlights the natural condition of man as spiritually dead, unable to come to God or believe without divine intervention. The necessity of election is grounded in man's inability to seek or please God on his own, making salvation possible only through God's sovereign will and grace. The preacher calls believers to respond with humility and praise for God's gracious election.
