Was your salvation decided before you were born, with no say on your part? Many are told that God secretly chose some to be saved and others to be lost, long before they ever lived. That idea, often called unconditional election, sounds deep, but does it really fit the Bible? In this study, we slow down and examine what Scripture actually says about choosing, predestination, and election. When we listen carefully to Jesus, Paul, and the rest of the New Testament, a clearer picture emerges. God chose the plan, the conditions, and the destination, but He invites every person to respond. Salvation is not a closed lottery. It is an open invitation. This lesson challenges common assumptions, defends God’s justice and love, and shows why faith, obedience, and personal response truly matter.

Did the apostle Paul believe Jesus would come back while he was still alive? Some point to phrases like “we who are alive” and claim Paul expected an immediate return. But is that really what Scripture teaches? Let’s slow down and look carefully. If Paul predicted Christ’s return in his own lifetime and was wrong, that would shake confidence in the Bible itself. Others claim Jesus already returned spiritually in AD 70, but that idea creates even bigger problems with clear passages about a visible, bodily return. When we read Paul alongside Jesus, the answer becomes clear. Paul was not setting a date. He was living in readiness. Christ is coming, the timing is unknown, and every generation must be prepared. This study shows how Paul and Jesus speak with one voice, calling believers to watchfulness, faithfulness, and hope without speculation.
