The Bible teaches that Christ was foreordained before the foundation of the world to be the Redeemer for His people (1 Peter 1:20).
Foreordination is a profound doctrine that highlights God's sovereign plan in the salvation of His people. In 1 Peter 1:20, we read, 'Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world.' This shows that even before creation, God had a redemptive plan in place, centered on Jesus Christ. This concept reassures believers that their salvation is not a result of chance but part of God's eternal purpose. Understanding that Christ was chosen as the Lamb without blemish before the world began underscores the depth of God's love and mercy in providing a Savior for those He elects for salvation.
