His choice is based on his mercy. Paul again emphasizes that nothing a man can do will give him the right to place an obligation on God. God did not accept this "small number" because they obeyed the Law, but because they accepted his offer of mercy! Salvation is not achieved but seized! For if God's choice. Mercy is undeserved! If God saved on the basis of law, it would be deserved, and could not be on the basis of mercy.
