Election is an Encouragement!

If the Word of God did not teach that some sinners were chosen unto salvation, there would be no reason to expect that anyone would ever believe the gospel. Had the Lord not determined some sinners to be the objects of his saving grace, then none of Adam’s race would have been rescued from sin and shame. However, since God ordained a people to eternal life before the foundation of the world, and these were redeemed by the blood of Christ, then I am encouraged in preaching the gospel. God will save "the vessels of mercy, which he has afore prepared unto glory" (Romans 9:23) from their sins. He will bring them all to trust his Son. The Lord Jesus said of those that the Father gave him in electing grace, "they shall all be taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me" (John 6:45). The Psalmist proclaimed, "Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power" (Psalm 110:3).

Election is not a discouraging truth and it does not stifle evangelism; it encourages us in our labors for we are assured of the certain success of the gospel. The Lord said of his word, "it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it" (Isaiah 55:11). The Lord is bringing chosen sinners to trust the dear Savior. Nothing can prevent the success of his purpose of grace. The surety of the covenant declared, "I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it" (Matthew 16:18).
