Depends. Better to burn gas for direct heat than burn gas to produce electricity and then use resistive heating.

But you do have to transport the gas or electricity to the heating site, and I don't know how that adds up.

Also, if conditions are right, you can use electricity to run a heat pump and move heat from the outside air to the inside air; depending on the details, you can move a lot more watts of heat then you spend operating the heat pump. This can be more economical than direct heating.
