Romans 5 verse 18

I think it's a worthy question to ask.

In a sense, the offer of Salvation is exclusive by way of the "Elect." The Doctrine of the Elect is about those chosen specifically by the Lord, before the creation of the world, to receive His Holy Salvation.

2 Thessalonians 2:13 CSB - "But we ought to thank God always for you, brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because from the beginning God has chosen you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and through belief in the truth."

Ephesians 1:4 KJV - "According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love . . ."

' The doctrine of elect ' is just a Calvinistic term. But it's not of course found in the bible that way. We have the word ' elect ' ( ect ) Which when we see it in context, it simply means -to 'service ' calling and purpose, not to salvation. (Isa. 42:1; Acts 9:15; Rom. 11:28).
People were not chosen ( individually) before they existed. Again this is Calvinism. Nowhere does it say ' chosen to be saved / to salvation . This is a belief first

Does any one have a verse where the free gift unto justification of life is an exclusive gift ?

Perhaps you are right.

One does not isolate a verse and then try to understand it. In Romans 15:18 it is
stated that the gift of eternal life is offered freely to all men. But other verses make it clear that this gift is received only by those who obey the Gospel, which means repentance toward God and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ.

I am not a Calvinist. I need to make that clear first.

It is written, that the names of the children of the kingdom are written in the lamb's book of life.

Rev 20
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Rev 21
27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

Now, if there are names written from the foundation of the world, are not the children of the kingdom predestined?

It is also written, that Jesus His Pre-Eminence said our hair is numbered. This is not pointing to our hair individually, but he is talking to the body of Christ, meaning the hairs are the "heirs" of the kingdom. Another Example of where HE spoke to the church as the body was where HE said: What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?

What about this?

Romans 8
29 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.

And this:

Jeremiah 1
5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

The GOD of the Spirit of the Prophets predestines HIS children. And HIS children are known and numbered. That means there will be a time where procreation is no longer needed, as the GOD will have sent all the children of the kingdom into the earth.

I am not a calvinist. I need to make that clear first.

It is written, that the names of the children of the kingdom are written in the lambs book of life.

Rev 20

Rev 21

Now, if there are names written from the foundation of the world, are not the children of the kingdom predestined?

It is also written, that Jesus His Pre-Eminence said our hair is numbered. This is not pointing to our hair indivisually, but he is talking to the body of Christ, meaning the hairs are the "heirs" of the kingdom. Another Example of where HE spoke to the church as the body was where HE said: What shall iot profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?

What about this?

Romans 8
29 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.

And this:

5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

The GOD of the Spirit of the Prophets predestines HIS children. And HIS children are known and numbered. That means there will be a time where procreation is no longer needed, as the GOD will have sent all the children of the kingdom into the earth.

Names are written since FROM the foundation . We are conformed at glorification which is what Romans 8.23 says we are predestined to . No one is predestined to be converted .

The names written in the lambs book of life are of the children of the kingdom. No tare's name is there. This was predestined for all the children of the kingdom only. That is why only those whose names are written in the lambs book of life will be resurrected unto life. It was written and set, it is not changed later, GOD cannot make mistakes.

Which verses please . You say stuff as if that's what the bible says ?

15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Yes I believe that verse .

15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

It is true. And Jesus His Pre-Eminence also said the tares will be cast into the fire as chaff, and the wheat shall be reaped.

All the names written in the book of life are of the children of the kingdom only. And these were written from the foundation of the world.

They were written in after believing.

Do you think GOD is reactionary?
