So you have cut Ephesians 1 out of your Bible? The word "predestined"
means "poo-pooed" to you? Go figure.

I think one needs to find the balance within these two passages:

Rev 20:15 "And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into
the lake of fire."

and

Matt 25:41 "Then He will also say to those on the left hand,'Depart from Me,
you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his
angels:"

Double Predestination is one of those topics that bears no fruit, and it is
not the message of fire and damnation on the cursed, but it is the message
of the Gospel. Think about it, the Righteous have no fear of hell and the
lake of fire.

Lets wander on over to John 10:26

"But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep"
