In Romans, the Lord clearly claims the right to give or withhold His mercy according to His will. Just like a monarch has the power over life and death, God has the right to spare or condemn the guilty as He sees fit. Through sin, we've lost any claim to God’s mercy. We deserve judgment, and if we're punished, we have no right to complain. If God chooses to save some, He can do so if justice isn't compromised.

If He decides to leave some to face the consequences, we have no right to object. It's foolish to demand equal footing with God. Arguments against God’s grace are just prideful rebellion. When we truly understand our own ruin and guilt, and the justice of God’s verdict against sin, we stop questioning why God isn't obligated to save us.

We don’t resent if God chooses to save others while passing over us, because any look of mercy from Him is pure grace, prompting eternal gratitude. How can those chosen by divine election ever fully praise God’s grace? There's no room for boasting here; God's sovereignty shuts it down. The idea of human merit fades away. No doctrine is more humbling, gratitude-inducing, or sanctifying than election. Believers should embrace it with joy and worship.
