Grace Extended

Psalms 115:9-11 KJV
Israel, trust thou in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.
house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.
Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

Israel is a people God chose
While our religious nature is constantly tempted to prescribe to Abraham some credit for God's grace, none is either described or implied in the Scripture. Abraham believed God and that alone was accounted for righteousness.

The house of Aaron is a people God took
The whole tribe was dedicated to God's service in place of the firstborn of every home.

Ye that fear The Lord is a people God included

It's the grace of God that extends beyond those He chose and those He requires to those who come to Him of their own accord.
