Thank God for His Eternal Purposes and Counsels Concerning Man’s Redemption

Thanksgiving 4.11 | NIV

For the eternal purposes and counsels of God concerning man’s redemption.

I ought always to thank you, O God, because from the beginning you have chosen some to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit: 2 Thessalonians 2:13(NIV) That there is a remnant chosen by grace, Romans 11:5(NIV) whom you have chosen in Christ before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in your sight; in love you predestined them to be adopted as your sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with your pleasure and will – to the praise of your glorious grace. Ephesians 1:4-6(NIV)

They were yours, and you gave them to Christ; John 17:6(NIV) and this is your will: that you should lose none of all that you have given him, but raise them up at the last day. John 6:39(NIV)

We ought always to give thanks to you, O God, because you have chosen some to salvation through sanctification by the Spirit: 2 Thessalonians 2:13(ESV) That there is a remnant, chosen by grace, Romans 11:5(ESV) whom God has chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world, that they should be holy and blameless before you in love, having predestined them for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to yourself, according to the purpose of your will, to the praise of your glorious grace. Ephesians 1:4-6(ESV)

Yours they were, and you gave them to Christ; John 17:6(ESV) and this is your will: that you should lose nothing of all that you have given him, but raise it up on the last day. John 6:39(ESV)
