Predestination
Romans 8:28–30…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. (NKJV)
Does God know you?
Did God know you before the universe was created?
Did God have foreknowledge of your relationship with Jesus?
Did God make your decision to accept (or reject) Jesus as your Lord and Savior, or did you?
(Believers)
Because God foreknew you, He then predestined you in the image of His Son;
Because God predestined you, He also called you;
Because God called you, He also justified you;
Because God justified you, He also glorified you.
(Non-Believers)
If God foreknew that you would reject His Son, would He predestine you in the image of His Son or would you destine yourself to eternal damnation?
No where in Scripture is predestination associated with ones eternal judgment.
