Bible Question: What do you say about predestination in relation to this verse |
Bible Answer: Romans 8:29, tells you that Devine Predestination is acording to God's foreknowledge, but He does not reveal just what it is that He foreknows. No one can respond positivly to the Gospel message, without first being "regenerated" by the Lord, but why it is this one, and not that one, I don't know, and what's more neither does anyone else. One thing you can be sure of is that the judge of all the earth will do right, in fact He is incapable of doing anything other than what is right, and just. |
