Summary: For some Christians, this is one of the stickiest passages in the Bible, because it seems to imply that human history-and individual human lives-are predetermined even before we're born. Does God determine who's going to be saved and who's going to be lost? Do we really have a choice?
Verse: "Just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will."
-Ephesians 1:4-5
