may God bless you in your search for truth on this
Exactly. It is about the perfectin and glorification of those who have received Christ as Lord and Savior. It is IMPOSSIBLE that God would predestine some for salvation, while bypassing others, especially when Christ Himself established the truth, that God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (John 3:17).
When one examines the context of the words "predestined" or "elect" it is always according to foreknowledge and for the purposes of conforming believers into the image of Christ -- perfected and glorified.
If salvation was by decree or fiat -- as falsely claimed by Reformed Theology -- the whole world would be compelled to be saved by "irresistible grace". But because God compels none to be saved, and selects none to be saved, we have that little word "might" instead of "shall".
