WHAT IS PREDESTIONATION?

PREDESTINED

   Ephesians 1:5 having predestinated us unto adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will.

   Predestination is quite a subject.  The Greek word is "proozio" predetermine, ordain, determine before. In the NT of God, decreeing from eternity. Foreordain…appoint beforehand

.

            We know the Lord has given us "free choice". As we saw last week to those who "received" and "believed" (John 1:12.) He gave power to become the sons of God. This accepting Christ, receiving and believing predestines us to being adopted.

  God the Father wanted a family. He so loved "The World" that He gave His Only Begotten Son. John 3:16

             Jesus took the sin of the whole world…John 1:29.  God predestined that He would have a family.  It is written John 3:15 whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. Acts 2:21 …whosoever shall call on the Name of the Lord shall be saved.

  What I believe…Before the foundation of the world, the Trinity knew man would fall. A plan was put into place to save and redeem mankind. Because, we, His Creation, was so valuable to God. Rev. 13:8…the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.  

  God predestined a plan of salvation.  A plan to redeem, save, adopt and make us sons of God.

         God Loves You...He put in a plan of salvation for you!!!...Be the whosoever...believe and receive the Savior of the world...Jesus Christ...your life will take on "real life"!

Jesus said in in John 10:10..."I have come to give you life more abundantly." Choose Jesus and God's predestined plan of salvation.
