Overview

The doctrine of election has confused theologians for centuries like a dog chasing it’s own tail. Does God choose us, or do we choose God?

Some believe that our own striving human willpower must somehow conjure up and maintain our own salvation. But how can we ever be certain that we have believed deep enough? Is it really up to us to save ourselves? To depend on my own decision for God?

Others believe salvation is God’s sovereign business from start to finish. But what about those who don’t believe? Did God choose some to fry in their own fat forever in Hell?

What if God’s predestination is not about choosing some for bliss and others for destruction? Following the lead of the great theologian Karl Barth, John Crowder explores the volatile passages of Romans 9-11 to shed new light on the debated topic of election.

God is not choosing one human over another. Jesus Christ is the chosen, elected man on behalf of all humanity. And you are fully included in Him.

John's shortest book ever aims to cheer up theology's biggest problem ever! Written as a companion book to Cosmos Reborn.

As founder of Sons of Thunder Ministries & Publications, John hosts massive evangelism campaigns in some of the poorest areas of the world. SOT also houses, clothes, feeds and educates orphaned and abandoned children. His team hosts mission trips, bringing the gospel of Jesus Christ into some of the most dangerous places on the globe - in addition to visiting the poor in garbage dumps, leper colonies and war zones.

John has authored five books, including: Cosmos Reborn, Mystical Union, Seven Spirits Burning, The New Mystics, and The Ecstasy of Loving God. He also publishes a number of multimedia resources, including a bi-annual magazine, The Ecstatic. John broadcasts a free weekly video teaching - The Jesus Trip - featuring fresh teaching. John also offers a monthly Web seminar for subscribers called Inner Sanctum at TheNewMystics.TV

He also speaks at conferences, seminars and churches worldwide.

John, his wife Lily, and their four children find satisfaction in the simplicity of loving God and demonstrating the finished works of the Cross. They have partnered together with friends to plant The Santa Cruz Church in Santa Cruz, California. John carries a vision to see mystical, supernatural Christianity restored to the church and for revival to burn to the margins of society.
