Please forward the verse that says "God predestined before the the foundation of the world."
I never said that. Stop misrepresenting me.
Please forward verse says that.
Because the Ephesian audience were the "faithful in Christ Jesus" who believed the Word of Truth, were sealed with the Holy Spirit, and are NOW "in Christ Jesus":
Eph 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are in Ephesus, and faithful in Christ Jesus.
Eph 1:13 in whom also you, hearing the Word of Truth, the gospel of our salvation, in whom also believing, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,
Eph 2:13 But NOW in Christ Jesus you who were once afar off are made near by the blood of Christ.
It sounds like that to you because your mind is flooded with Calvinistic presuppositions.
You need to prove that "beforehand" equates to "before the foundation of the world" and that "prepared beforehand" equates to "predestination".
You won't like my answer.
