BIBLICAL MANS PREDESTINATION OR ELECTION: From eternity to eternity, God in Christ Jesus has predestined man in the world, all races, holy and blameless, (to be set aside) among all creation - galaxies, non-living and living creatures. He created them in His likeness, Gen. 1: 26-27; Eph. 1:3-6. Created from the soil of the earth, he is equipped in his attributes being created in the likeness of God, the freedom to make his own free-will decisions, Gen 2:7; furthermore he is given authority and dominion to all creation for all his needs and his pleasures to fulfillment, Gen. 2:8, at the same time, he is warned, Gen. 2:15-17. And he is given a companion, a wife, a helpmate, taken from him, to totally satisfied and fulfill in his flesh, earthly emotional and mental life desire, Gen. 2:18-22. And, when he fall to the deception of Satan, because God loved him so dearly, to restore him to the eternal plan, immediately he was promised a Redeemer, THE SEED; through Christ Jesus. God by sovereignty chose and elected men to this plan of redemption - from Abel, Seth, Noah, Abraham.. Pharaoh, Judas... Paul... Romans chapters 9-11, until it was consummated in Christ Jesus and proclaim the good news continually until Christs return. God paid his redemption, crush Satan, Col 2:14-15, and satisfy the requirements of all His law, Romans 8:3-4, however, he must, by his free-will, decide to believe, John 3:16, and to have faith in Gods provision in Christ Jesus dead and resurrection which is free; this redemption is Gods kindness, mercy love and compassion- a gift! Gen. 3:15; Romans 8:1-4; Eph 2:4-10. God guaranteed this good news, the gospel, by sealing him by His Spirit, when he believes, to confirm that he is once again a property of God; this time by redemption or repurchased. Eph. 1:11-13. And if for any reason and anytime he falls to sin, all he needs is repent and ask forgiveness; he will be forgiven and cleanse once again and always. 1John 1:9; 1 John 2:1-3. God, being fully well aware, that his flesh, which is from the earth, has been corrupted by sin and he will always fall to temptations due to this weakness, the Spirit of God will always remind him to walk under the guidance of Gods love commandments, Math. 22:37-40; Gal 5:16. And he is assured never to be condemned as long as he steadfastly held of to the gospel of Christ, 1 cor 15:1-2. (will be continued)
