It doesn't seem fair, efficient, logical or right for God to have choosen just one group of people, and just a hand-full of individuals, to work directly through. Is this fair? And if there is some supernatural way of seeing the future, how could such a disasterous choice be made by a wise and loving god?

There is no logic when it comes to religion. You must have faith and believe everything they tell you, regardless.

Jewish Priest decided what to include in the book. Of course they are going to say they are the chosen.
Its all stories anyway. Hear say from an ancient civilization.
The things that they saw as miracles can be explained in
modern days.
Where are the miracles these days anyway? Where was God when Katrina hit New Orleans. Must not of been any Jews on the roof tops.

There are no 'chosen ones.' The Jews were God's chosen people NOT because he flipped a coin and they picked tails, but because they were the only one that followed him. Present day, there are no 'chosen people.' Rather, there are 'choosing people' that choose to follow God and put him first. God chose the church that chose him.
Good question.

We all are in the eyes of the CREATOR of ALL THINGS as it made our souls from its own body before the creation of the physical universe.
I would chose this version over the DUAL DEITY idea. of good and bad.
Its a TRINITY not a duality. AND the HOLY GHOST(SPIRIT) will have the last word on the matter.

Have you not heard the good news????? You can be adopted into God's family through acceptance of His son Jesus as your savior!!! Praise the Lord!!! And when the Holy spirit comes knocking on your hearts' door, He choose you!! Did you open your heart's door and invite Jesus in? God gave every one of us the same exact opportunity to accept Jesus as our savior. If you choose not to accept this free gift of salvation. Don't blame God, but take that responsibilty and blame upon your own self.

He started with one chosen family, the off-spring of Abraham.
Now, we get to chose.
By asking Jesus to be our Savior, we are essentiailly joining the spiritual family of Abraham.
God chose once, from then on all men have had the chance to choose for themselves.
That's MORE than fair, and very loving.

God chooses people to do specific tasks. God doesn't choose who will be saved, that is up to the person. When God chooses people for a task, he must choose one that will go to the finish. He wil not choose a person that he knows won't complete the task.

John 3:16- For God so loved the WORLD (not just some people) that He gave His only begotten Son, that WHOEVER (not just some people) believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Good question and I agree. Not fair! Of course, you assume facts not in evidence by suggesting there's a god in the first place. There is life. Life is a miracle and it's a wonder. Call if god if you want to.

Many are Called---few are Chosen.
Everybody can be Chosen if they will do their HomeWork.
GOD can only use those(on a Regular Basis, and Five-Fold Ministry) who Disicipline themselves according to Scripture.
Anybody can discipline themselves according to Scripture.
Few do it.
Few are chosen.
Thats it.
