Episode 288: Romans 8 Part 3 Predestination: Do we Have A Choice?

Paul mentions something at the end of chapter 8 and also in Ephesians that so many have misunderstood and that is the doctrine of Predestination. Many believe that it doesn’t matter how we live our lives because God has already decided who is getting into Heaven and we have no say in it. Is this true? Do we not have a choice in the matter? If you put what Paul says in context, along with other scriptures, including some that Paul wrote himself, predestination will make sense. Yes, it is true that only certain ones are getting into Heaven, but the good news is, the invitation is sent out to everybody. We all have a choice to make: either to accept Jesus as our lord and Savior, or reject him.
