What God decided He does. Romans tells us that God had planned to choose one over the other, beforehand - and accomplished what He said would happen.

Amen.

I have no idea what your verse quote has to do with what was said in what you quoted from me.

Isa 46:10 "Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:"

This quote of Isaiah mentions that God declares the end from the beginning, and it refers to "the things that are not yet done...." Surely you don't think that refers to "unconditional election" of individuals, do you? FYI, I don't.

God predestines the redeemed and unredeemed - one to an immortal life with Him, the other to a second death in the lake of fire: so, yes, I believe in a doctrine of "predestination". No more, no less.
