The Church is an Elect People

By Jeremy Myers
14 Comments

The Church is an Elect People

church is chosen peopleThe church is a group of Godโ€™s elect (cf. Rom 8:33; Eph 1:4; Col 3:12; 1 Thess 1:4; 2 Tim 2:10; Titus 1:1; 1 Pet 1:1-2; 2:8-9; 5:13; Rev 17:14). As we have seen previously, Israel is another group of God’s elect.

The real difference, however, between Israel as Godโ€™s elect and the church as Godโ€™s elect, is that while not all Israelites were regenerate, every member of the church is. Of course, this is only true of the invisible, universal church of God; not the visible and physical โ€œchurchโ€ down on the street corner or identified by some denomination. All people who are spiritual members of Godโ€™s church are elect.

Did the Church Replace Israel?

In looking at the election of the church, it is important to recognize the similarities between Godโ€™s election of Israel and Godโ€™s election of the church.

First, it is popular in some circles to say that since Israel failed in her God-ordained mission to the world, the church has replaced Israel as Godโ€™s chosen people. Though Paul seems to hint at this sort of idea in Romans 9โ€“11, I believe that this is not what Paul is teaching there, and that Israel was not set aside, nor did Israel fail in her mission.

Let me present the problem differently.

If Israel has been โ€œsuccessful,โ€ how would the outcome have been any different? Would we not have the Bible? Would Jesus not have come? Would Jesus not have died? Would the church not have been born?

The answer to all such questions is clearly โ€œNo.โ€

The only โ€œfailureโ€ on the part of Israel was to recognize the Messiah when He came. But this was not exactly a failure in regards to her role as Godโ€™s chosen nation, but was a failure she shares with all people on earth who do not believe in Jesus for eternal life. Just as God desires for all people to be saved (1 Tim 2:4), God desires all Israel to be saved as well (cf. Paulโ€™s sentimentย  in Rom 9:1-5).

So the only โ€œfailureโ€ of Godโ€™s chosen people Israel was that they failed to enter into Godโ€™s elect church when it was formed. For vast numbers of Israelites, this โ€œfailureโ€ continues to this very day, as it does for the majority of people on earth.

So Israel did not fail in her God-given vocation. She succeeded.

Through her came the Law and the Prophets, the promised Messiah, and the birth of the church, all of which are blessings to the entire world, which was Godsโ€™ ultimate goal and purpose for Israel.

Therefore, we must never say that the church has replaced Israel or that because Israel failed, God has selected a โ€œnew chosen people.โ€

Never! Godโ€™s election of the church is not due to His setting aside of Israel, but rather due to the fulfilment of His plan and purposes for Israel. The church is an outcome of the fruit of Israel’s success; not her failure.

God never desired that all people on earth would become Israel. Israel is a nation with her own people, customs, culture, and laws. God did not choose them because their customs and culture was better than everybody elseโ€™s. No, He chose one group of people as a way to call all people to Himself.

God never wanted all people to become Israelites; He wanted all people to maintain their culture and customs, just as Israel had, but do so in connection with Him. This new communion of people who live in connection with God is what we now think of as church. The church is Godโ€™s assembly of all people from every tongue, tribe, and nation who live within their own customs and culture as members of His family. Why did God choose Israel? Not to make the whole world Israel, but to make the whole world His.

church is chosen by God

This helps us understand Godโ€™s election of the church.

If we understand why God chose Israel, then we can also understand why God chose the church.

If Israelโ€™s task was to call all people to become Godโ€™s people, then this is the churchโ€™s task as well.

Just as Israel was called to provide a witness and a testimony to the surrounding people about the goodness and graciousness of God, to be Godโ€™s voice, hands, and feet on earth, and to call all people to turn from their destructive ways and follow Godโ€™s righteous ways instead, so also, this is the task of the church (cf. Col 3:12; 1 Pet 1:1-2; 2:8-9).

Israel was chosen to be a blessing to the world, and when the church lives up to its calling, it too will be a blessing to the world. To be a blessing is the purpose for which God has chosen the church.

Furthermore, if we understand how a person became a member of Israel as Godโ€™s chosen people, then we can also understand how people become members of the church as Godโ€™s chosen people.

How did a person become an Israelite? For the most part, they were born into it.

So also with the church. We become members of the church by birthโ€”not by physical birth, as was the case with the Israelites, but by spiritual birth; by being โ€œborn againโ€ (John 3:1-8).

And if one enters the church through the new birth, then this also means that one enters Godโ€™s elect people through the new birth.

People sometimes think that Christians are members of the church because we are elect, when in reality, it is the other way around: we are elect because we are members of the church. By joining with Christ, the Elect One, through faith, we automatically become members of His Body, the church, and thus become numbered among the elect (Vance: Other Side of Calvinism, 379).ย We are elect only because we are in Him (Eph 1:4).

Election, Redemption, and Service

This truth further leads to the proper conclusion about the relationship between election and redemption.

chosen in ChristJust as election does not lead to our membership within the church, but is rather a result of being incorporated into Christโ€™s Body, so also, election is not what leads to our redemption, but is rather the result of redemption.

We are thinking of election backwards if we think that we are only in Christ because God first forgave and redeemed us. The truth of redemption and election is that we are redeemed because we are in Christ, and as a result of being in Him, we are elect.

Christ is belittled if we think that God first forgave and redeemed us and then put us in Christ; we should rather believe that it is only in Christ that we have received redemption and forgiveness. Christ is also belittled if we think that God first chose us and then put is in Christ; it is rather that those in Christ share in his election, and so are chosen in him. โ€ฆ When people enter into Christ then not only does his death become theirs, but his election becomes their electionย (Marston and Forster, Godโ€™s Strategy in Human History, 151, 154).

The election of the church, then, follows the same patterns we have seen previously with the election of Israel and the election of Jesus.

Election is not to eternal life, but to service. This is true of Israel, Jesus, and the church.

In eternity past, God did not choose who He would unconditionally and irresistibly bring into His church, but rather, decided that all those who believed in Jesus and in so doing became members of His church, to them He would give the task of being a blessing to the world by sharing serving one another, declaring Godโ€™s grace, and loving others just as He has loved us.

Reconciling Mark Driscoll

Reconciling Mark Driscoll

I am sure you have heard about Mark Driscoll and his recent resignation from Mars Hill in Seattle.

This post is not really about Mark Driscoll, but about how his resignation is a symptom of a wider problem in Western Christianity.

As much as I never really cared for Markโ€™s preaching, approach to ministry, or theology, I always felt a bit sorry for him. He was another victim of the corporate, celebrity-style Christendom that operates under the word โ€œchurchโ€ in most of the western world.

mark driscoll

About ten years ago I listened to a sermon by Mark Driscoll in which he publicly stated his desire for Mars Hill to become the largest church in the United States. It had already been recognized at that time as the fastest growing church, and he wanted to leverage that growth into the largest congregation. Yet according to recent news releases, by January 1, 2015, Mars Hill will be no more.

I think people around the world are finally starting to wake up to the fact that when it comes to church, bigger is not always better. Of course, this doesnโ€™t mean that smaller is better either.

Church is not about โ€œhow manyโ€ at all. It is not even about โ€œhow.โ€

In a culture which says โ€œItโ€™s all about you,โ€ we need to reawaken to the fact that Church is all about โ€œwho.โ€

Who is the church about?

Jesus! He is the sole head.

Who is the church about?

People meeting together for friendship and fellowship.

Lots of people point to the description of โ€œtwo or threeโ€ in Matthew 18 as the minimum requirement for church. I personally donโ€™t think this text has anything to do with how many people are needed to โ€œdoโ€ church, for church is not actually something we do, but is something we are.

But even if we say that church exists where there are two or three, nothing is said in Matthew 18:20 that when these two or three gather, one of them needs to stand up and give a sermon. Nothing is said that when these two or three gather, they need to sit in a circle with their bibles open on their laps, discussing a particular text or point of theology. Nothing is said about prayer or music or food.

It is best to think of church as you think of family.

Do you ever talk about going to โ€œfamilyโ€? Of course not. You are a family.

Do you ever plan regular family events? Well, sometimes. But these are rarely set in stone for all time, and you never assume that what you do in your family is what all families everywhere should be doing as well.

But even when family events are planned, true “family” most often occurs outside and away from these family events. True “family” happens as life happens. True family occurs at 4:00 in the morning when someone has a bad dream or wakes up with a stomach ache. True family occurs when memories are formed while buying celery at the supermarket. True family occurs when everybody laughs at a joke about peas on the curtains. If you tried to package and export these family events to all other families, it wouldnโ€™t work.

How did I get onto this topic after beginning with a discussion about reconciliation and redemption of abusive leaders?

For Mark Driscoll, I hope that he does not enter into another form of Christian leadership any time soon. It’s not because he is disqualified. Far from it! He might be more qualified now then ever before. It is just that modern Christian forms of “leadership” look nothing like the leadership modeled by Jesus.

For all the fans of Mark Driscoll, I hope that rather than simply turn to another celebrity pastor or mega-gathering for their weekly fix of preaching, they see that Jesus Himself wants to lead them into the biggest adventure of a lifetime.

And as for all the critics of Mark Driscoll, I hope there is absolutely no gloating whatsoever. What happened to Mark Driscoll and Mars Hill is extremely sad, and anyone who gloats is in danger of the exact same problem.

Ultimately, I hope that western Christianity in general learns from what happened to Mark Driscoll and Mars Hill.

I hope we learn that reconciling and redeeming abusive church leaders begins with reconciling and redeeming the church itself.

The problem is not the church leaders. Church leaders are some of the victims of a church structure that functions as God never intended.

So letโ€™s abandon our power structures, our titles, our positions, our platforms, our offering plates, and even our buildings and campuses.

Instead, let us turn to love. Love for our neighbors. Love for our enemies. Love for our family.

Let us not rush to get fallen leaders back into positions of authority. Let us not rush to get anyone into any position of authority in the “church,” for there is no authority other than Jesus Christ, and there is no church other than the family of God.

This Video Taught me What It Means to Have “Faith Like a Child”

This Video Taught me What It Means to Have “Faith Like a Child”

Sometimes people think that “faith like a child” means living in ignorance. Children don’t know much, right? They just believe without any facts or thinking or logic. So this must be what it means to have faith like a child.

I agree that in some ways, faith like a child means taking God at His Word and just moving on.

But at the same time, God gave us brains, and desires that we use them. He invites us to reason with Him (Isa 1:18).

So if faith like a child doesn’t mean living in willful ignorance, what does it mean to have faith like a child?

This video clues you in to part of it:

I am convinced that faith like a child does not mean ignorance like a child.

No, to have faith like a child means to view life like a child.

How does a child view life?

Like the girl in the video, children have a tenderness of conscience. They are emotional.

But this doesn’t mean that to have faith like a child you need to have emotions like a child. No, it’s more than that.

Children are full of wonder and awe.

Children are creative and imaginative.

Children are playful and fun-loving.

As adults, we get bored with flowers, bugs, and sunsets. We lose delight in talking with others about nothing. We are jaded and disinterested.

Adults hold grudges, harbor fears, and stay angry.

Adults refuse to forgive. Adults remember slights.

I think one of the things that attracted people to Jesus is that He was “child-like.” Does this mean He lacked wisdom and understanding? Far from it! No, Jesus was “child-like” in that He was full of the wonder of life, the hope for humanity, and the beauty of creation. Jesus lived in awe.

And awe is contagious.

faith like a child

Do you want to have faith like a child?

Having faith like a child has absolutely nothing to do with not asking questions. After all, have you ever known a child who doesn’t ask LOTS of questions?

No, having faith like a child means having an “imagination” like a child.

Those who have faith like a child will hope, dream, forgive, create, trust, and love. Live life to the full. Be excited. Be adventuresome. Be tender of heart. And always ask lots and lots of questions.

So think! Reason! Question! Ask! But also imagine, dance, sing, laugh, and play! Then you will have faith like a child.

Regeneration Follows Faith

By Jeremy Myers

Regeneration Follows Faith

regeneration precedes faithThe final theological ramification of Total Depravity is the idea that regeneration precedes faith.

As stated in earlier posts, the idea that regeneration precedes faith is the necessary result of the logic of Total Depravity. If people are totally depraved, dead in sin, and have no free will to believe in Jesus for eternal life, then God must give them the faith so that they can believe.

But this gift of faith could not be received by someone unless they were first regenerated by God. So the Calvinist argues that regeneration precedes faith.

And while we cannot disagree that this is the logical result of consistent Calvinism, it is exactly this logical result which shows one and for all that Total Depravity is not taught in Scripture.

Total Depravity leads to the belief that people are regenerated by God before they believe in Jesus; but the Bible repeatedly says that faith results in regeneration (John 1:11-13; 20:31; Gal 3:26; 1 Pet 1:23-25).

When forced to choose between the logical result of a theological position or the clear teaching of Scripture, we must choose Scripture every time.

And of course, if faith precedes regeneration, as Scripture states, then this also calls into question the theological premises which led up to this idea, namely, that people are unable to believe and so God must give them the gift of faith.

The Bible teaches that people are able to believe. Faith therefore, is not a work, is not a gift, and results in regeneration, just as Scripture says.

One caveat, of course, is that although regeneration follows faith, faith is preceded by revelation.

Without revelation, there would be no faith. Faith is a response to the multi-faceted revelation of God.

While revelation precedes faith; regeneration follows.

This was discussed in numerous previous posts (see the link list below), and so nothing more needs to be said here.

Some point to Acts 16:14 as evidence that God regenerates people before they can believe. In this text, Paul and Silas met a woman named Lydia on the banks of a river outside of town, and as they explain the gospel message to her, the text says that โ€œthe Lord opened her heart to heed the things spoken by Paul.โ€

We will talk about this text more in theย future posts onย Irresistible Grace, but for now, it is enough to note that the phrase โ€œopened her heartโ€ is an idiomatic way of saying โ€œhelped her understand.โ€ Acts 16:14 is not talking about God regenerating an unbeliever so that she can believe, nor is there any mention anywhere about God giving her the gift of faith. Instead, Acts 16:14 is a verse which shows the illuminating work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of other people.

John 3 is one of the many texts which clearly reveals that regeneration follows faith.

In speaking to Nicodemus, Jesus talks about being born again, and being born of water and spirit (John 3:3, 5). When Nicodemus asks how he can enter again into his motherโ€™s womb to be born a second time (John 3:4, 9), Jesus states that anyone who believes in Him will have everlasting life (John 3:15-16).

According to Jesus, believing in Him has the result of receiving regeneration unto eternal life.

Faith is NOT a Work

By Jeremy Myers
24 Comments

Faith is NOT a Work

Though discussed briefly in a previous post about free will, it is important to once again emphasize the truth that faith is not a work.

To begin with, it helps to remember the definition of faith we learned earlier:ย Faith is being convinced or persuaded that something is true. As such, we cannot choose to believe. Faith is not a work and is not meritorious because faith happens to us. We are convinced, we are persuaded, as God reveals Himself to us through His various forms of revelation.

what is faith

With this definition of faith in mind,ย it is absolutely true what most Calvinists say, that God must take the first step.

God has taken the first step

In fact, God has taken more than just the first step; He has taken the first billion steps. He provides revelation through creation, conscience, Scripture, dreams, visions, and angelic messengers. He sends prophets, missionaries, pastors, teachers, and evangelists to share the Gospel. He sent Jesus to fully reveal His character and nature to humanity. He sends the Holy Spirit to convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, and uses the Holy Spirit to draw all people to Himself (John 6:44; 12: 32; 16:7-11; Acts 16:14, 29-30; 24:25).

He sends forth His grace and mercy upon all people (John 1:9; Titus 2:11). He forgives all sin, and is patient, loving, and kind to all. These steps, and countless more specific steps in the life of each and every person, are the sorts of things God has done on our behalf to call each of us to believe in Jesus for eternal life. Human faith, then, is not the first step, or even the millionth step, in the process of coming to God or believing in Jesus for eternal life.

People are able to believe in Jesus for eternal life because God has first done absolutely everything that is within His power, made everything available to us by His grace, and flung open the door to eternal life by His will. It is only because of this multitude of โ€œfirst stepsโ€ by God toward us that anyone and everyone who wants to receive Godโ€™s offer of eternal life may do so by simply and only believing in Jesus Christ for it.

Ongoing faith is also important

Once we have believed in Jesus for eternal life, this does not mean that faith has no more place in the life of the believer. Just as we have received Jesus Christ Jesus, so also we must continue to walk with Him (Col 2:6). And how is it that we received Jesus? By faith. Future faith builds upon our former faith. Believing simple and elementary things allows us to later believe more difficult and hard things. This is what the Bible means when it talks about going from โ€œfaith to faithโ€ (cf. Rom 1:17). But even this ongoing, sanctifying faith is not a work.

In order to move from believing one truth to believing another truth, it is true that we must act upon the faith we already have, and pursue the truth that follows. But even this sort of ongoing, sanctifying faith is not meritorious (Rom 4:16). It is simply faith at work; faith that energizes our life.

We will talk more about James 2 in the chapter on Perseverance of the Saints, but as a bit of a preview, James has been widely misunderstood to be saying that an inactive faith is a non-existent faith, when in reality he is saying that an inactive faith still exists; it is simply unproductive. James does not want unproductive faith. He wants us to act upon our beliefs. James is not saying that faith is a work, nor is he saying the true faith always reveals itself through works. James and Paul are in full agreement: faith is the opposite of works (Rom 4:5), but faith energizes our works (Jas 2:14-26) and leads us on toward greater faith.

So no matter what stage of faith we are talking about, faith is not a work. There are different things people can believe which lead to different results. But no matter what is believed, the faith involved in that belief is not a good work. It is simply being persuaded and convinced about what we have been told. When we believing in Jesus for eternal life, we have become persuaded that Jesus, as the author and finisher of our faith, loves us, forgives us, and freely grants eternal life to us, not because of anything we have done but simply and only because of Godโ€™s grace toward us.

faith and works

Doesn’t John 6:28-29 Teach that Faith is a Work?

Some people object that John 6:28-29 teaches that faith is a work. John MacArthur, for example, uses John 6:29 in The Gospel According to Jesus to teach that faith is a work, and therefore, not something human beings can accomplish. He says that since faith is a work, it cannot be โ€œmerely a human work, but a gracious work of God in usโ€ (John MacArthur, Gospel According to Jesus, 33).ย Several things can be said against this, beginning with what Jesus was actually saying in John 6:29.

In this text, Jesus says โ€œThis is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.โ€ From a cursory reading of this text, it certainly seems that Jesus is equating faith with a work. But when the verse is read in context, it shows the opposite. In the immediately preceded context, Jesus has told some of His followers that they should โ€œnot labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting lifeโ€ (John 6:27). In response, some of the Jewish people who were listening to Him ask, โ€œWhat shall we do, that we may work the works of God?โ€ (John 6:27). Jesus answers by telling them that the work of God is to believe in Him, that is, in Jesus (John 6:28).

Jesus says this, not because He is trying to say that faith is a work, but because He is pointing out to the Jewish people that God was not looking for works, but was looking for faith. Many Jewish people of that day (like many Christians today) were overly focused on pleasing God through the works of the law.

By saying that the work God wants is for people to believe in Jesus, Jesus was saying that the work that God desires is not work at all, but the opposite of works, which is faith. God does not want us to โ€œdoโ€ anything for Him, for He has already done everything for us. He simply wants people to believe in Jesus for eternal life, thereby recognizing that everything which needs to be done has been done in Jesus.

The Bible Contrasts Faith and Works

faith is not a workBeyond even this, however, the idea that faith is a work, and therefore a work of God in the heart of the unbeliever is โ€œa theological fiction which cannot be supported from Scriptureโ€ (Kevin Butcher, โ€œA Critique of The Gospel According to Jesus,โ€ JOTGES 2 [Spring 1989], 38).ย The Bible everywhere contrasts faith and works so that if one attempts to accomplish something by faith, it cannot be said to have been done by works, and vice versa.

Faith involves the abandonment of any attempt to justify oneself and an openness to God which is willing to accept what he has done in Christ. The same applies here in regard to salvation. Faith is a human activity but a specific kind of activity, a response which allows salvation to become operative, which receives what has already been accomplished by God in Christ (Lincoln, Ephesians, 111).

So faith is not a special sort of human work, nor is it a divine work in the heart of the unbeliever. Rather, faith is not a work at all. Faith is the opposite of works. Just as we do not receive eternal life by faith and works, so also, we do not receive eternal life by faith that is a work. Just as faith cannot be part of the definition of works, so also, works cannot be part of the definition of faith. The two are not related in any way, but are polar opposites. Both faith and works, by definition, are mutually exclusive. Grant Hawley, in his book The Guts of Grace, says this:

Phrases like, โ€œFor by grace you have been saved through faith โ€ฆ not of works โ€ฆโ€ (Eph 2:8-9), and, โ€œto him who does not work but believesโ€ (Rom 4:5), are complete nonsense, if works are part of the definition of the words faith and believe. If a woman at a wedding reception said, โ€œThe one who does not move, but dances, enjoys the reception,โ€ you would wonder if she had had too much to drink because moving is part of the definition of the word dancesย (Hawley, Guts of Grace, 124).

Faith is being persuaded or convinced that what God says is true. One of the things God says is that He gives eternal life to anyone who believe in Jesus for it. Because of all that God has done in history, through various forms of revelation, and by His Holy Spirit, people are able to believe in Jesus for eternal life.

Faith is not a work, but is the opposite of works, and as such, faith is in no way meritorious.
