Were we predestinate by the grace of God through Christ to his vocation, 1election, justification, and salvation before the beginning of the world. Yea verily: so saith S. Paul, he chose us in Christ Jesus before the foundations of the world were laid. Again he saith: we know, that all things work for the best unto them that love God, which also are called of purpose. For those which he knew before, he also ordained before, that they should be like fashioned unto the shape of his Son, that he might be the first begotten son among many brethren. Moreover, whom he appointed before them also he called. And whom he hath called, them also he justified: & whom he justified, them he also glorified.
