“The doctrine of election tends to give firmness and fiber to flabby minds. It tends to produce robust, thoughtful Christians who are not swept away by trendy, man-centered ideas. It has an amazing preservative power that works to keep other doctrines from being diluted and lost. In general it tends to press onto our minds a God-centered worldview built out of real objective truth.”

This is very true. Elections moves us from a man centered, choice type thinking to a GOD centered universe.
Too bad so many are swept up in pride and humanism and cannot accept the Biblical doctrine of election. Is it reall too difficult to accept that God is in control?
