- For many Adventists, the topic of the “remnant”—and particularly various statements that have sounded like claims to be “the remnant church”—has been a source of discomfort, feeling a bit too much like arrogance or at best claims we struggle to live up to. Chosen By Grace’s emphasis on the nature and initiative of God is key to moving beyond this.
Author and pastor, Stuart Tyner points out that the there have been “remnants”—groups of people who respond faithfully to God’s grace and call—at many points of human history and that an end-time remnant will primarily be faithful to that same call in many of the same ways.
The call of God’s grace is always the call to live faithfully by God’s grace and for God’s glory in our time and place—and that includes maintaining our focus on and growing in our understanding of that incredible grace. Chosen By Grace is a useful devotional book for those purposes and worth Tyner’s passion for the task.
