What is Election?
"Election" refers to God's active role in electing or choosing those whom He will eternally save. The doctrine of Election is often connected with the term "Calvinism" and taught using the acrostic TULIP (T stands for "Total depravity," U for "Unconditional election," L for "Limited atonement," I for "Irresistible grace," and P for "Perseverance of the saints"). At its core, Election acknowledges that God is sovereign over all things, even salvation, and that without the direct intervention by the Holy Spirit to regenerate a heart and gift an individual with faith, no person would ever seek God; all would perish.
