Karl Barth's famous account of the doctrine of election in his mammoth Church Dogmatics has been described as the heart of his theology--a great hymn to the grace of God in Christ. He maintained that "we must look away from all others, and excluding all side glances or secondary thoughts, we must look only upon the name of Jesus Christ." God's election is primarily about his self-decision or self-determination, not about his election of individuals.
