Words to Ponder
Election is a leveling doctrine; it levels us all to the same position. Because we all are in that common position of ruin as descendants of Adam, there is nothing which can commend us to God. But therefore it is also possible for the greatest sinner to be saved. God does not look at us to find a reason why He should save us rather than others. He knows there is nothing to be found with us. But He has found everything He was looking for in His beloved Son! Because He has brought about a perfect redemption and obedient satisfaction to God's law, God does not need anything from us. We may go unto Him and say, 'Lord, nothing in my hands I bring; simply to Thy cross I cling.' That is salvation. - Cornelis Pronk (20th century)
