We worship God, not Allah.
God reveals himself throughout scripture and especially through His incarnation.
Our God is not inscrutable. Calvinism is heresy.

Interesting point of view. I would say otherwise.

The problem with creating a separate "caste" of elect is that this takes away from Christianity where people have the choice to choose God or not (make no mistake though, it's God who does all the saving if we choose Him).
The idea that one is pre-destined by karma to something harkens to hinduism and its concept of karma and inexorableness.
