P. 6
John 3:16
The scriptures teach us that God chose his people before the world began:
Eph. 1:4 “According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world,
that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:”
We now proceed to show by several verses of scripture that the people that God chose
before the world began are the people that God so loved that he gave his only begot-
ten Son for:
1. Matt. 1:21 “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS:
for he shall save his people from their sins.”
2. John 6:37 “All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to
me I will in no wise cast out. 38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own
will, but the will of him that sent me. 39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent
me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up
again at the last day.”
3. John 10:28, 29 "And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, nei-
ther shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father which gave them me is
greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.”
4. John 17:1, 2 "...Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may
glorify thee: As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal
life to as many as thou hast given him."
5. Luke 1:68 “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed
his people,”
6. Luke 1:77 “To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of
their sins,”
