Synopsis

With nearly 200,000 copies sold in its 25 years, Chosen by God by Dr. R. C. Sproul is a contemporary classic on predestination, a doctrine that isn't just for Calvinists, says Sproul. It is a doctrine for all biblical Christians. In this updated and expanded edition of Chosen by God, Sproul shows that the doctrine of predestination doesn't create a whimsical or spiteful picture of God, but paints a portrait of a loving God who provides redemption for radically corrupt humans. We choose God because he has opened our eyes to see his beauty; we love him because he first loved us. There is mystery in God's ways, but not contradiction.

Goodreads review by Michael on March 05, 2012

There are a few questions you must settle in your mind to determine whether what is written in this book is true. 1. Is God all powerful, all knowing, and does He have the right to execute His Will at all times and in all situations? 2. Do you love Him, esteem Him, and desire Him to the point where yo......more

Goodreads review by Angelyn on January 13, 2013

This is one of the few truly life-altering books I've ever read. It (along with scripture, some great sermons, and the Holy Spirit, of course) completely changed the way I think about God, not only in salvation, but in all things. When I started this book I had recently joined a reformed church and......more

Goodreads review by Joseph on April 11, 2012

Far be it from me to give good reviews to a book that argues for Calvinism, but this book really is excellent for a number of reasons. First of all, it lacks the heat and vitriol and outrageous (at times even slanderous) statements that a lot of books that argue for the reformed view are unfortunatel......more

Goodreads review by M.L. on July 30, 2019

It is so weird that I am giving this book three stars. But alas, I am nothing if not fair. For starters, let me state something. I have great difficulty reading C.S. Lewis. Half the time, I have absolutely no idea what he’s saying. I expected this author to be like C.S. Lewis but was pleasantly surp......more

Another classic R.C. Sproul work! In Chosen by God, Sproul sets out to defend the reformed view of predestination. The book is very judicious. Each chapter begins with a question from Scripture pertaining to predestination. Sproul then offers the common answers to those questions from multiple views......more
