Conditional election is the doctrine that states that God's election (or "choosing") is not determined arbitrarily or according to some hidden motive undiscernable to humans. Instead, as God looks down the corridors of human history, he chooses all individuals that have faith in Jesus and sovereignly decides to save those and those alone.

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified. (Romans 8:28-30)
