Election in the Elect, Isa. 42:1, 3/7/21

Summary

The sermon explores the doctrine of election, emphasizing that Jesus Christ is the ultimate elect of God, and believers are elected in Him. It highlights Old Testament prophecies in Isaiah about Christ as the elect servant and cornerstone, fulfilled in the New Testament. The preacher stresses that election and predestination focus on Christ's glory rather than on believers themselves, clarifying that predestination is about being conformed to Christ rather than merely going to heaven. The message encourages rejoicing in election while keeping Christ central.
