Predestined or Invited?

Why Scripture Teaches Calling, Responsibility, and Free Will

This message examines the doctrine of predestination and contrasts the Calvinist view with the broader biblical teaching on salvation. While Scripture speaks of God’s purpose being established before the foundation of the world, it does not teach that individuals are predestined to salvation or condemnation apart from choice. Instead, the Bible consistently affirms human responsibility, free will, and accountability. God predestined a plan of salvation and a calling for humanity, not the eternal fate of specific individuals.
