PREDESTINATION
Predestination is defined as:
Previous determination as if by destiny or fate
Three basic positions:
1.God has not predetermined anything.
2.God had predetermined some things.
3.God has predetermined all things.
Revelation 13:8 All who dwell on the earth will
worship him, whose names have not been written
in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the
foundation of the world.
1 Peter 1:19 but with the precious blood of Christ,
as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.
20 He indeed was foreordained before the
foundation of the world, but was manifest in
these last times for you
Joshua 24:15 "And if it seems evil to you to serve
the LORD, choose for yourselves this day whom
you will serve, whether the gods which your
fathers served that were on the other side of the
River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land
you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will
serve the LORD."
Matthew 11:28 "Come to Me, all you who labor
and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Revelation 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say,
"Come!" And let him who hears say, "Come!" And
let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let
him take the water of life freely.
Matthew 28:19 "Go therefore and make disciples
of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of
the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
20 "teaching them to observe all things that I
have commanded you;
2 Corinthians 5:11 Knowing, therefore, the terror
of the Lord, we persuade men;
Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart's desire and
prayer to God for Israel is that they may be
saved.
Colossians 1:28 Him we preach, warning every
man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that
we may present every man perfect in Christ
Jesus. 29 To this end I also labor, striving
according to His working which works in me
mightily.
Acts 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth and
said: "In truth I perceive that God shows no
partiality. 35 "But in every nation whoever fears
Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him.
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning His
promise, as some count slackness, but is
longsuffering toward us, not willing that any
should perish but that all should come to
repentance.
1 Timothy 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in
the sight of God our Savior, 4 who desires all
men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of
the truth.
John 6:37 "All that the Father gives Me will come
to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no
means cast out.
John 6:44 "No one can come to Me unless the
Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise
him up at the last day. 45 "It is written in the
prophets, 'And they shall all be taught by God.'
Therefore everyone who has heard and learned
from the Father comes to Me.
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel
of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation
for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and
also for the Greek.
and the one who comes to Me I will by no means
cast out.
For if God did not spare the natural branches, He
may not spare you either. Therefore consider the
goodness and severity of God: on those who fell,
severity; but toward you, goodness, if you
continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will
be cut off (Rom. 11:21-22).
If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a
branch and is withered; and they gather them
and throw them into the fire, and they are
burned” (Jn. 15:6).
1 Corinthians 10:12 Therefore let him who thinks
he stands take heed lest he fall.
Hebrews 4:11 Let us therefore be diligent to
enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the
same example of disobedience
Hebrews 12:14 Pursue peace with all people, and
holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:
15 looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the
grace of God;
2 Peter 3:17 beware lest you also fall from your
own steadfastness, being led away with the error
of the wicked;
Galatians 5:4 You have become estranged from
Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law;
you have fallen from grace.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but
the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our
Lord.
Hebrews 6:4 For it is impossible for those who
were once enlightened, and have tasted the
heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the
Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of
God and the powers of the age to come, 6 if they
fall away, to renew them again to repentance,
since they crucify again for themselves the Son of
God, and put Him to an open shame.
God has predetermined some things
1 Peter 1:20 He indeed was foreordained before
the foundation of the world, but was manifest in
these last times for you
1 Kings 13:2 Thus says the LORD: 'Behold, a
child, Josiah by name, shall be born to the house
of David; and on you he shall sacrifice the priests
of the high places who burn incense on you, and
men's bones shall be burned on you.'
2 Kings 23:15 Moreover the altar that was at
Bethel, and the high place which Jeroboam the
son of Nebat, who made Israel sin, had made,
both that altar and the high place he broke down;
and he burned the high place and crushed it to
powder, and burned the wooden image. 16 As
Josiah turned, he saw the tombs that were there
on the mountain. And he sent and took the bones
out of the tombs and burned them on the altar,
and defiled it according to the word of the LORD
which the man of God proclaimed, who
proclaimed these words.
Matthew 27:4 "I have sinned by betraying
innocent blood."
Acts 2:23 "Him, being delivered by the
determined purpose and foreknowledge of God,
you have taken by lawless hands, have crucified,
and put to death;
