Romans 11:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 (A)Lord, they have killed thy Prophets, and dug down thine Altars: and I am left alone, and they seek my life?
4 But what saith the answer of God to him? (B)I have [a]reserved unto myself seven thousand men, which have not bowed the knee to [b]Baal.
5 Even so then, at this present time is there a remnant according to the [c]election of grace.

- Romans 11:4 He speaketh of remnants and reserved people which were chosen from everlasting, and not of remnants that should be chosen afterward: for they are not chosen, because they were not idolaters, but therefore they were not idolaters, because they were chosen and elect.
- Romans 11:4 Baal signifieth as much as Master or patron, or one in whose power another is, which name the idolaters at this day give their idols, naming them patrons, and patronesses or Ladies.
- Romans 11:5 The election of grace, is not whereby men chose grace, but whereby God chose us of his grace and goodness.
