Romans 8:28-30
(NIV)
28 And we know that in all things
God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his
purpose.
29 For those God foreknew he also
predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn
among many brothers.
30 And those he predestined, he also
called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified. |
