This would make God a respector of persons, MacArthur! Just in a different way from how the Arminians make God a respector of persons.

God ONLY loves his elect.

rw, I don't see how the GRPLs can have God chosing between the Elect and Non-Elect without making him a respecter of persons.

UNCONDITIONAL election, Corin. He chooses according to the good pleasure of His will, NOT according to some foreseen attribute of the individual.

(Hi Corin! :wave:)

If God were choosing the Elect based on some characteristic that the Elect have that Reprobate do not then I'd agree with you. However God does not base His Elective decision on anything to do with the person. He bases it on His own good pleasure.
