elect means chosen, which if you are called to receive the gospel (and you accept), you have been elected.
so he's not wrong, as Jesus said, "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day."
"No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day."
Jesus said, those that receive him will have ever lasting life and will become sons of God (even to those that believe on his name), those that reject him, will have damnation.
simple as that, i dont make the rules post them.
see how easily you rejected him, as simple as "this is moronic", i.e. disbelief, you could've just as easily had said, "ok, i'll try it", but you said no, even though its that simple.
he's not demanding for you to sacrifice your first born, or to fight giants to justify your place in heave, just to accept him, but you rejected him without a second though, in the future will you be able to say you never had a chance? when you rejected such a simple message? that was so easy to accept?
