Good grief, could you be any more evasive?

Why would it be important to me to believe that you are God's chosen?

And/or, why would it be important to YOU that I believe it?

1Co_15:3 For I give over to you among the first what also I accepted, that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures,

2Co_5:14 For the love of Christ is constraining us, judging this, that, if One died for the sake of all, consequently all died."

2Co_5:15 And He died for the sake of all that those who are living should by no means still be living to themselves, but to the One dying and being roused for their sakes."

1Th_5:10 Who died for our sakes, that, whether we may be watching or drowsing, we should be living at the same time together with Him."

Christ also gave Himself a ransom for all mankind and based upon this ransoming God will have all mankind to be saved (see 1 Timothy 2:4-6).

Is it just something you think might come up in a Trivial Pursuit game? Or would believing it impact the world, or the individual, or you in some important way?

It's a good as carved in stone when G-d says that He changes not His mind...G-d is not an Indian giver...
