"God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong, God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are very clear, God chose." [08:28]
"If you are Christ, he chose you. He leaves some unchosen, he chooses others. If you are in, he chose you. In fact, if you ask when did that happen, this word in the Greek for chose is only used one other place outside this text, Ephesians 1:4." [08:47]
"God chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. Only that placed in Paul does it occur, and therefore I take it to mean it shows you he chose you, he chose you in verses 27 and 28 meaning from eternity." [09:15]
"He contemplated, he saw all of us as unworthy of being chosen. Nobody is wronged if they're unchosen, you are just spectacularly blessed for nothing in yourself. This love is absolutely unconditional, without any exception." [10:17]
"God loved you by calling you. So first he chose you and now secondly, God loved you by calling you. Verse 26, consider your calling brothers, that's what I'm asking you to do right now, just do some considering right now." [11:39]
"Jews demand signs, Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, or Greeks same, he's using them interchangeably, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God." [12:33]
"The call gives light, the call creates sight, the call raises the dead, Lazarus, come forth, he didn't decide to, the call raised him from the dead. Let me give you an analogy that could be misleading, it helps me just to get your hand on it." [14:21]
"When God issues a call to your dead heart and says wake up, you wake up. You did not make yourself a Christian, just face it, you didn't make yourself a Christian which is why you should feel so incredibly loved." [15:57]
"Because of his great love, he made you alive when you were dead. So if you have any spiritual life in you at all, you have been greatly loved, called regeneration, it's called calling, you have been called and you are greatly loved in this calling." [16:26]
"The purpose of God in loving us in these ways is so that we will be loved in a way that does not incline us to boast in ourselves in the presence of God. That's the purpose of loving us this way." [04:40]
"He loves us so much, he will not let us ruin the glorious experience of being loved by turning God's love into a reason to boast in ourselves. He loves you too much, he will not let you ruin the experience of being loved by God." [05:05]
"His purpose in loving us this way is so that nobody will boast in the presence of the Lord and the positive way of saying in verse 31 is so that the one who boasts boasts only in the Lord. Are we going to boast in the presence of the Lord all right?" [06:07]
