A remnant; a small number of the Jewish nation who belong to his redeemed people, and to whom his promises to Abraham of spiritual blessings, were made. Galatians 3:29.

Election of grace; God's gracious choice of them to be his people. When multitudes enter the wide gate, and walk in the broad way which leadeth to destruction, the reason why some enter the strait gate, and walk in the narrow way which leadeth unto life, is they are by God graciously chosen to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth, and are kept by the power of God, through faith unto salvation. 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14; 1 Peter 1:5.
