Predisposition is not the same as pre-destination.

I cna be predisposed for heart disease, but if I do certain things I might live a long and healthy life.

If I am pre-destined for a heart attack, there is nothign I can do.

Jews, obviously, are capable of becoming Christians. So it is not predestined that none of them will. But htere is a strong enough predisposition that there will always be a chosen People.

And if God gave the Jews a "predisposition" not to come to Christ verses others who are not this seems fair?
