This document discusses two main views on the doctrine of election or predestination: the prescient view where God foreknows those who will choose to have faith in Jesus, and the Augustinian view where God sovereignly elects those who will have faith and grants them that faith. It also summarizes Paul's argument in Romans 9-11 that God has been faithful and righteous in His election of Israel in the past and His rejection of some Jews presently, but will restore Israel in the future through His grace.
