Apostolic Predestination


And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: ...


And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them:  and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be. ...


As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.  GENESIS 12:2, 15:5, 17:4


See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.  JEREMIAH 1:10


And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.  ST JOHN 15:27


For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 


Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called:  and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.  ROMANS 8:29,30


Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, EPHESIANS 1:5


 


There has been a certain allotment in the burning heart of God concerning eternal inheritance among the nations in light of Israel's everlasting salvation.  Abraham's covenant holds to a 'predestined authority' of believers, of saints, who will be faithful to him according to alloted authority.  Now such authority will be tried in the sufferings of Christ as to prove a 'right witness' of Jesus' coming kingdom here to earth; such proving acknowledges an elected remnant here present on earth as to form whole nations into nations of Abraham.
