Many think that the "elect" has only to do with the Jews"..
However, the "elect" are also NT Christians, also known as "Brethern". You'll notice in the scriptures posted below that the apostles are talking to "elect" believers, the Born Again.
Here are some NT verses that describe US, the born again, as the "elect", and there are all sorts of different contexts, include the born again "elect" being gathered into the sky.
