What Does Predestination Mean in the Bible? The
doctrine of predestination is one of the most
debated issues in church history. It was believed
that God had already foreordained everything that
God would do in the world. It was believed that
God had elected or chosen specific individuals to
go to heaven, while others to live in hell. This
doctrine that predestination is the only way that
God could choose could be true, if it is the only
way that God could choose.

1.What does Predestination mean? While the word
"predestination" is not in the Bible, the idea
that God has already determined how we will live
our lives is there. Although the Bible doesn't
actually teach that we are predestined to sin, it
does clearly teach that we won't go to heaven
because we've committed sins. Predestination is
the idea that God has already decided who will be
saved and who will not, and we therefore cant
change it.

How does God's will for us relate to
predestination? Your ultimate destination is
your eternal home with your loved ones, but
before you get there, you need to get through the
intermediate step of the plan of salvation. Your
fate is written before you are born, but you can
make it happen. In the Book of Job, Job states
that he does not know why God has been so cruel
to him. It is made clear that Job's life was not
what God had originally intended, and he had been
tested severely. In the end, God did not change
his mind, but Job did.
