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 rather 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.
