Who Are Gods Elect?

Called –Chosen- Foreknowledge- Predestined –Justified- Glorified
Before the Foundations of the Earth

Ephesians 1:4 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:
5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Romans 8:30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
Isaiah 45:4 For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me.
Isaiah 65:9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
Matthew 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
1 Peter 1:2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.
Colossians 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
Titus 1:1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;

2 Timothy 1:9 Called
Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
Jude 1:1 Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called:

Called –Chosen- Foreknowledge- Predestined –Justified- Glorified
What are these words referring to? How can you be called before the world began? What does Foreknowledge really mean?

All of the above words are referring to Gods Elect and what they accomplished in an age or eon of time before this one. Foreknowledge is referring to Gods knowledge of our actions in the first age. He knows what you did before.

He also knows what you will do in the future and He can choose to know or He can choose not to know. This is the whole point of free will, you have a choice to love God or not to.

In the original purpose of our existence we were to give God pleasure and fellowship and also our love. We were also given free will. Love without the free will to give it isn’t real love; it would be a simple act of obedience.
In His infinite wisdom God knew the difference in the first age and everybody including the Anointed Cherub (satan) had free will.

At some point in time of this pre existence there was a great rebellion led by satan and a full 1/3rd of Gods children rebelled with him. This age of carnality is a plan of redemption for those who followed satan in that first age. YHVH would go to the ends of the universe to redeem their love.

We are now in the councils of YHVH. This will only end after the GWTJ and those who still choose to follow satan will be destroyed. We will then go back to the original propose of YHVH.

A glimpse into the first age and the original propose of our existence
Job 38:4 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

YHVH had a contingent plan all along in Jesus Christ as He is called the Word of God and in Him was the plan of redemption for mankind before the foundation of the this world.

Dispensations of time are a complete mystery to most Christians, but they are written in plain sight in the Bible. If you can believe in the Millennium and Eternity which are both future dispensations of time, you should be able to open your mind up to past dispensations of time. The Millennium where time does pass and Eternity where time is nonexistent are both dispensations of time.

YHVH is the creator of time and He holds the clock in His hand. He can start and stop it at any time He so chooses but Christians can’t see past a 6000 year old earth. Why would Greek words such as Kosmos or Eon even exist if there weren’t dispensations of time?

Although it is not conclusive on exactly how old the earth is, science has proven beyond a reasonable doubt the earth is millions of years old. Quantum physics is a proven science and it acknowledges the duality of the temporal and non temporal worlds or dimensions that exist side by side.

When you contemplate the vast expanse of the universe and the fact it could take a million years to reach a star, how on earth can you claim the earth is only 6000 years old? The ignorance in Christianity is astounding to me.

So much of the Bible will never be understood until you grasp the concept of a timeless God, who has started and then stopped the hands of time whenever He so chooses. He lives outside the bounds of time and space

The concept of predestination and free will has to examined in this light in order to understand it in its fullness. Nothing you can do in this dispensation of time will predestinate you to a predetermined outcome if you haven’t done anything to deserve it.

It’s not about what you “will do” but rather “what you have done”.

Predestination requires a pre-existence…period.

Sure, YHVH knows all and has foreknowledge of all so then why is there free will? If everything is predetermined, why bother with Jesus and the plan of salvation? All souls are called to salvation by what Christ did on the cross but you must understand the difference between being called to salvation and the calling of Gods election.

Gods elect are called to bring others into salvation and the calling of salvation is given to those with free will. Gods elect have already attained the wife status of YHVH. Those with free will are “called to salvation” and after they are saved they will be betrothed to Christ until the marriage supper of the Lamb. Only then will they proceed to the “married wife” status.

Only when you understand the “Fullness of Time”, will you understand who the first-fruits truly are and the difference between free will and predestination.

All souls are divided into 3rds depending on what they did in the Great Overthrow of satan in the first world age found in Revelation 12:4. One third stood with God and fought against the dragon. One third didn’t do anything but sit on their duff. The final third stood with satan and worshiped him as if he were god.

The third that stood with God and were loyal to Him are Gods elect. The other two thirds have free will.

Gods elect are predestined, called and chosen, justified and glorified for their loyalty to YHVH. They are here to help the others find their way back to the Father. It is predetermined that they will see the plan of salvation and accept it. Their footsteps are ordered-ordained by God.

Any other understanding of predestination and free will is a fairy tale.
The foreknowledge of God is a reference to what you did in the first age, only He knows what you did; it has nothing to do with your future actions. On the other hand YHVH knows all; past, present and future.
