R
Radical depravity: every aspect of our being is affected by the fall, and renders us incapable of saving ourselves or even of wanting to be saved. Romans 3:11
O
Overcoming grace: it is God‘s persistent, beckoning and drawing that overcomes our wicked obstinacy (John 16:8). God’s work of salvation is monergistic, yet resistible. (Luke 7:30) (Acts 8:51)
S
Sovereign election: God desires the salvation of all, yet accentuates that our salvation is not based on us choosing God, but on God choosing us (I John 4:19).
E
Eternal life: the believers enjoy a transformed life that is preserved, and we are given a faith which will remain. (John 10:28-29)
S
Singular redemption: Christ died, sufficiently for every person, although efficiently only for those who believe. (John 3:18)
