I posted this because there is so much misunderstanding on the doctrine of election as Calvinists believe it to be so. C.H. Spurgeon, a Calvinist preacher, gives one of the best explanations of the doctrine I’ve ever heard so I wanted to share it with all of you.
And now, my brother, we will have a song together, and we will see how we can get on there. Open your hymn book, and you sing in the language of your Wesleyan hymn-book,
“Oh, yes, I do love Jesus
Because he first loved me.”
There, brother, that is Calvinism.
– C.H. Spurgeon
