2/4 Why Preach Election? Charles Pennington
I have often heard this question asked: Why preach election? Here are four reasons why I preach God’s eternal and unconditional election of a people in Christ, unto salvation.
God has declared it in His Word (2 Timothy 3:16). Since God said it, it is both true and necessary. I do not have authority to omit this truth but rather am obliged to proclaim it. I do not shun to declare it and must not keep back anything profitable (Acts 20:20 & 27).
It gives all the glory to God in the salvation of a sinner from beginning to end. Our conformity to Christ and ultimate glorification is inseparably linked to, and begins with our election in Him from eternity. It is all His doing. (Eph. 1:3-4; Rom. 8:28-30; 2 Thes. 2:13-14).
It is a most comfortable doctrine to the saints. All whom He chose, He has blessed with all spiritual blessings in Christ. Nothing needful or necessary has been withheld (Col 2:8-9).
It shuts me up to God’s sovereign grace and mercy in Christ and excludes boasting. It kills our ideas of salvation by personal merit, works or will and causes us to seek Christ, Who is the salvation of God (1Cor. 1:30-31).
