You assume we know who the elect are and who the elect are not. I don't have that knowledge, do you?

That particular philosophy is outlined in "The Institutes of the Christian Religion," by John Calvin. He taught that "The elect" are those who accepted his religious doctrine, and is why I used his teachings an example in my post.

I have grown up in the reformed tradition. In all my education, that has never been taught.
