If you can not see it, you aren't trying. God says he did everything he could to get his chosen people to obey him but they would not. And yet you claim God just chooses to give some that ability and not others.Did God not chose Noah and even 7 others of His family for salvation? Did God not chose Abram for salvation? Did God not chose Isaac for salvation? Did God not chose Israel for salvation? Did God not chose a people from among the peoples of the earth for salvation? Do you not belong to God's chosen people whom Jesus died for and saved?
What is your point in quoting Isaiah 5:4?
Yes I meant he chose Jacob over Esau for a job, not for salvation.
With Noah it's obvious. God choose him because he was the only good choice.
"Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked faithfully with God."
Did God choose Israel for salvation? He chose them to be the line of the Messiah, not because they were all destined for salvation.
Abraham was saved because of his faith. Romans 4:3
I assume Issac was too, but he made his share of blunders. He almost gave the birthright to the wrong son.
Yes, I belong to God's chosen by being in Christ. No, God didn't choose me over my neighbor. He doesn't love me more than the one who is not yet his.
