Re: For the Bible tells me so.....

This is from the esv

or we can look at it from the ASV

8 And all that dwell on the earth shall worship him, every one whose name hath not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb that hath been slain.

I do not see what your issue is they say the same thing as the KJV or do you want to take this into a Greek translation debate as well.


Yes Christ was foreknown. Yet all who were to be called were predestined to be so from the foundation of the world.

2 Thessalonians 2:13: God chose you from the beginning unto salvation in sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth.

Acts 18:48: And as the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of God; and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

John 13:18: I speak not of you all; I know whom I have chosen.

John 15:16: Ye did not choose me, but I chose you.

Romans 9:23: Vessels of mercy, which He afore prepared unto glory.
(See also references ; Ephesians 1:4, 5, 11; Romans 9:11-13; 8:29, 30; etc.)


I could go on but you get the idea.

Also I am heading out of town for a trip so I will not be back for couple of days Tweet
