I’ll add to your list. In Ephesians 1, Paul says two things, THREE TIMES:
1. God chose US!
2. He did it before we were born.
Three times!
Verse 4: even as he *chose* us in him *before* the foundation of the world...
Verse 5: he *predestined* us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ
Verse 11: In him we have obtained an *inheritance*, having been *predestined*...
Paul says the same thing, three different ways and contextes. He makes it abundantly clear that we don’t choose Him. He chooses us. And that he did it before we were born.
This is why it is such a blessing to spread the gospel. We get to enjoy seeing the lost sheep brought into the fold. Sometimes we preach to goats, but we never know if we are dealing with a lost sheep or a goat. Only God knows, so we go forward accordingly.
That’s right.
We are not responsible for the response.
Our responsibility is to preach and the results are up to God.
