- "Your very perplexity in reconciling the surface of things with our Lord's announcements, the very temptation you lie under to explain away the plain words of Scripture, shows you that your standard of good and evil, and the standard of all around you, must be very different from God's standard."
In this sermon from his Anglican period, Newman reflects upon the challenging truth proclaimed uniformly throughout Scripture: the chosen are few, though many are called.

6:22 Medicine against Saint Augustine's error
Yes
9:42 Medicine againts Augustine again: that holy Father believed that some non-predestined humans were easily identificable: Children who had dies without Baptism. He based all his errors in this "piece of evidence".
I doubt that not being chosen means the non-chosen are eternally rejected by God.
I think that the non-chosen will spend some of their next life regretting their lack of love and holiness, (Purgatory), but of course God did not create hundreds of millions of people who will suffer eternal punishment.
I very much respect the scholarship and sincerity of Cdl. Newman, but it seems he has overlooked something.
The non-chosen can't mean the souls in Purgatory - the chosen or "elect" includes everyone who is saved, so the souls in Purgatory are very much among the chosen.
As to the greater number being lost, that is the traditional interpretation of the Doctors of the Church.
You think. But do you know for sure?
@@CatholicCulturePod I am a convinced and committed Catholic because I know something of the adorable goodness of God.
Some how the doctrine ? of the fewness of the saved seems to be inconsistent with the adorable goodness of God.
