It worries me too. However, I attend a Calvinist church because all the local churches are as far as I'm aware. I lean on Proverbs 3:5-6 and rely on the Lord to teach and guide me.
Hallelujah that you've come to believe in Him ♡ Welcome to CF!
We are all saved by God's grace, for Christ sake, through faith.
If you believe that, if you believe that Jesus Christ died for your sins, and you sincerely believe, and trust in his promises to save you, then you are on the winning team.
Did you believe this because you are of the elect? or, did you make a decision to accept Christ as your Lord and savior?
Either way, you are still saved by God's grace, for Christ sake, through faith.
If you can wrap your head around "total depravity" the rest of Calvinist theology is pretty easy to get behind.
I once was told that if God did not elect some for salvation, considering man's sinful nature, and that he is only inclined to evil, that it's probable that no one would make a decision to believe, and follow Christ. If that's the case, then Christ died for nothing, and no one is saved.
God does not elect anyone for damnation, that is the justly deserved punishment for everyone who has ever lived on this earth.
But since we have such a loving, and gracious God he has chosen to be merciful to some, and grant them eternal life, not because anyone was more deserving than any one else, it was a total gracious act of mercy...this is Unconditional Election. However, others were passed by, and they receive justice, but no one receives injustice.
Remember, you are saved by God's grace, for Christ sake, through faith. How you get there does not really matter, whether by election, or, decision, you are on the winning team.
