The Plan Before Time: Eternal Redemption

Ephesians 1:4 Even before he made the world, God loved us 

and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. 

5 God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by 

bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he 

wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure. - (NLT)

2 Timothy 1:9 For God saved us and called us to live a holy 

life. He did this, not because we deserved it, but because that 

was his plan from before the beginning of time—to show us his 

grace through Christ Jesus. - (NLT)

Revelation 13:8 And all the people who belong to this world 

worshiped the beast. They are the ones whose names were not 

written in the Book of Life that belongs to the Lamb who was 

slaughtered before the world was made.
