God will not interfere in the life of anyone with freewill, but He will lead, guide and direct anyone who asks Him to...and anyone with predestination. So what's the deal with predestination and freewill? Back in Why The 2nd Earth Age Post, I mentioned the 1/3 of God's children in the 1st earth age that followed Him outright and stood against Satan (with a 1/3 choosing Satan, and the other 1/3 that were wishy washy undecided). These 1/3 God knows He can count on without question....These 1/3 are not "special" and not "prejudged" for their actions in this 2nd earth age...other than to say they earned their stripes (so to speak) in that 1st earth age, and because of their choice and actions in that 1st earth age, they are predestined in this 2nd earth age to impact God's Plan through His direction and interference in their lives (such as the prophets for example). These predestined are God's Elect. Again, not better than anyone else, just directed based on their decisions and actions in the 1st earth age. These Elect throughout history and ongoing until Christ's returning in the 7th Trump carry out God's Plan and bring forth His Truth through His interference in their lives and His direction.
Ephesians 1:4-5 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: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,
The "foundation of the world" remember is that katabole ... end of the 1st earth age. So based on their actions prior to this 2nd earth age, God predestinated them in this 2nd earth age.
Romans 8:28-30 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. 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. 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.
Romans 8:33 Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? It is God That justifieth;
Romans 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Also, among others not mentioned: Romans 11 & II Timothy 3:14-15
That 1/3 that stood for God in the 1st earth age were the "first" to stand and will also come "last" to stand in the end of this 2nd earth age. They stood against Satan in the 1st earth age and will be of the last generation who will once again stand against Satan as antichrist.
Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few are chosen.
Luke 13:30 And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last.
