The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum Hatred of Calvinism and Calvinists

I know Israel was elected as is The Church, Christ's body. Most references to this in the N.T. are, to my mind, referring to a group being elected. For example, all the references in Eph. 1 are plural. At this present time, I don't believe in individual election. I will acknowledge that I may be wrong though. Since this is getting off the original topic, perhaps I will post verses that convince me of my present position in a separate topic. If you have recently discussed this subject here, I will defer to do this though, because I know how upsetting it can be for some. On another forum I've been on for over 15 years, we try to avoid this subject as much as possible.

By the way, Pilgrim, I want to compliment you on your graciousness!
