Election, Reprobation and the Virtues of God: An Exegetico-Theological Study of Romans 9:18-23
ABSTRACT How can it be that a God who is all merciful and loving will for His own good pleasure chose to save only some guilty sinners and pass the rest unto sorrow by choosing not to save them? If this be true, then what does this act really make God? Against the argument that God is unfair in his salvific dealings with men, I set out in this paper to attempt an exegetical and theological study of Romans 9:18-23. My objective is not only to defend the biblio-centricity of the Reformed doctrine of election and reprobation but to also show how it rather portrays God’s virtuous qualities such as His love for those who deserve nothing but condemnation and His justice in ensuring that every soul that is guilty of sin deserve to die.

Chosen for His Own Possession: Toward a Biblical Theology of Election
Throughout history, sincere Christians have disagreed on how to handle God’s sovereign choice of His people. The brief study that follows does not claim to be the last word on a topic debated for centuries. This work does, however, seek to cut through the conglomeration of confessional commitments, ecclesiastical ties, and emotional fervor to trace the biblical terminology concerning divine election through both Testaments. In so doing, the study will reveal that God’s election of His people is sovereign and unconditional, necessitating both the security of the believer and the future restoration of ethnic Israel.
