“And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell; and, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

We have all been predestinated to our Father (*not, “to heaven” or “to hell”), to come to know our Father and His heart; and even most importantly, to experience the living fellowship of the Son, with the Father: “Having predestinated us… to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will.” Isn’t it amazing that so-called “biblical scholars,” the alleged “great minds” of our time cannot, actually, read? And the brain-dead masses worship them! Why? Because there is agreement in their willful, blind ignorance. There is no scripture, regarding “predestination,” which actually contains any direct reference to some place called “heaven” or “hell”! Apostle Paul mentions “hell” nowhere in his apostolic writings. Jesus became our “hell,” and put “hell” to death, in Himself! Our Peace has already been provided, now for over two-thousand years! It is impossible for us to make, achieve or accomplish peace with one another; how much less, with God Himself? We remain blind and ignorant fools today; regarding the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. It was God Himself who was in Christ, reconciling the whole world unto Himself; not imputing unto us our trespasses and sins. God, in the physically broken and torn, sacrificial body of Christ on the Cross, made peace between Himself and humanity; as well as, between humanity and Himself…
