The Elect of YHWH
Posted : 26 Nov, 2011 08:17 AM
Hello everyone:
Election,This is a hot topic on this forum,Yet there does not seem to be much Biblical teaching on this subject.
Yet there has been a lot of 'Finger Pointing' going on,along with an extereme amount of Name calling,and emoticon posting.
YHWHs 'ELECTION-CHOOSING' anyone unto Eternal life is based soley upon YHWH being Omnipotent-Omniscient-Omnipresent.
It is the Omniscience of YHWH which man is Elected,or Chosen.
It is by YHWHs GRACE that 'ANYONE', has been or will ever be ELECTED-CHOSEN unto Salvation.
If we 'DENY' YHWH His will to Choose out from this life,His Elect,His way;
Then we Deny Him to being the Sovereign of all of His Creation.
We also Deny Him to being Omniscient,knowing Beginning to ending.
If YHWH where to leave this all to important task to man and his so-called free wil,then each and every single person born,whether men or women,they would all perish.
For we 'ALL',each and every single person would CHOOSE SIN,not Yeshua.
Joh 8:34 Jesus answered them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Everyone practicing sin is a slave of sin.
For by himself, man is completely 'INCAPABLE' of CHOOSING to trust Yeshua to save them from the wrath of YHWH against their sin(s).
For without Yeshua 'GIVING' man the life of YHWH;
Man is a spiritual 'CORPSE',completely incapable of anything of YHWH.
Joh_10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
I wil be posting the KJV,Literal Translation,and Youngs Literal Translation.
I will post KJV with Strongs numbers.
I will post some Old Covenant Scriptures along with some New Covenant Scriptures which pertain to the Elect of YHWH.
I will also post the defintions of both the Old Covenant Hebrew word(s) for 'Elect"
And the New Covenant Greek word(s) for 'Elect'
Then each of you can make up your own mind as to what you will believe about this matter.

The English word elect appears (4) times in the Book of Isaiah.
Isa_42:1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
Isa_45:4 For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me.
Isa_65:9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
Isa_65:22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
This same word 'Elect' is also the word 'Chosen' in English.
Here a few Scriptures which pertain to the Hebrew word bâchı̂yr,which is interpreted 'Elect'
1Ch 16:13 O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
Psa 89:3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant,
Psa 105:6 O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.
Psa 105:43 And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:
Isa 43:20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.
