Why would God predestinate anyone to heaven or to hell, when he had already sent his Son Jesus Christ into the world to reconcile us and the world unto himself?
"And all things are of God, who has reconciled us (humanity) to himself by Jesus Christ. God was in Christ, reconciling the WORLD unto himself" 2 Corinthians 5:18-19.
Jesus reconciled us and the whole world unto God by doing for us that which we cannot do for ourselves. Jesus is God's new Adam and the new representative of the human race.
"Therefore, as by the offense of one (Adam) judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one (Christ) THE FREE GIFT came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience (Adam) many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one (Christ) shall many be made righteous" Romans 5:18-19.
Jesus is God's reconciler, Romans 3:26. Jesus in our name and on our behalf, fulfilled all of the demands of God's Holy Law. Jesus in our name and on our behalf, has atoned for our sins and the sins of the whole world, 1 John 2:2. And has reconciled us and the world unto God. This is why no one needs to be predestinated.
God sees ALL THINGS in his Son Jesus Christ. As far as God is concerned Jesus has victoriously defeated sin, death and the devil and now sits in heaven as "The King of Kings and the Lord of Lords" Revelation 19:16. All that have faith in the doing and the dying of Jesus are complete "In Christ" Colossians 2:10.
