This is a cool statement. Can you support this scripturally?
I know it's been said that God witnesses to people through Word and Sacrament, but I've never seen that tied to the idea of election before.
The more people say here, the more palatable the idea of single predestination is becoming, so keep it coming.
I think any of the many verses on baptism tend to support that idea: Rom 6:3-4, Gal 3:27-28, Mark 16:16, Eph 5:26. In all those cases God is the sovereign actor who is unilaterally taking the damned and making them saved through the immediate act of baptism. It is a sovereign election that happens right here in the present, of which predestination is simply (for a God outside of time) a logical corollary.
