On what basis does God choose who will make up the church? Listen to this lesson to learn that God does not choose who will believe, but in His foreknowledge He knows who will willingly trust in Christ as their Savior. See that God has chosen their destiny and mission. Learn from the Wedding Guest parable that it is the volition of the guests that is the deciding factor and that those who are willing to attend are given robes of righteousness in Christ. Learn what it means when it says God loved Jacob but He hated Esau. Realize that you, as an individual, must accept God’s free gift so you will enter into Heaven and have eternal life.
