The GOSPEL is in the GRAMMAR.
If you don’t get the GRAMMAR RIGHT, you’ll get the GOSPEL WRONG.
hey
I. The Chooser and the Chosen.
WHO? Sinners who are dead in their sin.
WHEN? From the foundation of the world.
HOW? His great love and rich mercy.
WHY? He’s redeeming a PEOPLE.
THE “I.F.S.” GOD CHOOSES
Invaded/Interrupted our Lives
(i.e., Abram, Moses, David, Paul)
Family Connection
(i.e., Isaac, Jacob, Ruth, Solomon)
Sent a Messenger to Show and Tell
(Rahab, Ninevites, Nebuchadnezzar, Nations)


Why do I call it the I.F.S.?
Just like we signed up to be CHOSEN by a CHILD, we have to sign up to be CHOSEN by JESUS.
II. The Benefits of being Chosen by God
In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will—to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins....
With all wisdom and understanding, he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ,When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession—to the praise of his glory.
YOU ARE:
Adopted into His Family
Loved by His Lavish Grace
Redeemed by His Life (Blood)
Invited into His Will (Mission)
Sealed with a Promise (Holy Spirit)
Destined for an Inheritance
III. A Prayer for the Chosen
The Prayer for the Chosen is to KNOW the BENEFITS and APPLY them to our LIVES.

Have YOU been CHOSEN?
