The Chosen

God calls and draws us to Himself (John 6:44,65; 1 Peter 2:9-10) 

And He appoints us to believe (Acts 13:48) 

He creates in us a clean heart (Psalm 51:10) 

And works the faith that we receive (John 6:28-29)

He chooses us for salvation (2 Thess 2:13-14) 

Who’ll  be holy and without blame (Eph 1:4) 

He grants the act of believing (Phil. 1:29)

Saves us for the sake of His Name (Ps. 79:9, 106:8)

For Unless the Father draw them  

No one, not one, can come to Christ (John 6:44)

No one can come to the Father 

For the way and the door is Christ (John 14:6; John 10:7-9)

He calls us out of the darkness 

And into His wonderful light (John 11:43: 1 Peter 2:9-10)

It is God who grants repentance (2 Tim. 2:24-26)

And He gives blinded eyes their sight (Isaiah 42:6-7; 2 Cor 4:3-6; John 8:12)

It’s not by our will we’re born again (John 1:12-13)

By His will we’re born from above (1 Pet. 1:3, John 3:5) 

He predestines us to adoption (Eph 1:5)

Because of His great love (1 John 3:1)

He’s the author of our faith in Him (Hebrews 12:2)

According to His purpose it’s done (2 Tim. 1:9)

He predestines our salvation (Eph 1:5) 

And to be conformed to His Son (Rom. 8:29-30) 

So be diligent to make your calling and election sure (2 Peter 1:10)

For if in Our God we learn to trust, we will endure (Phil 1:6; Heb 10:23)
