He predestinated those of us who HE chose with no reason given...
This is a huge step up from the Calvinist position that there was no reason for our election (it was
UNconditional) except HE liked the election of only some and not others.
Is it really such a blasphemy to think that we can know what HIS reason was by HIS later day revelation? That the reason depends upon our having had a pre-earth existence is also not a blasphemy against HIS goodness even though it is highly heretical in light of orthodoxy's commitment to both our being created on earth and to the blasphemy of our inherited sin from Adam. Heresy is against church doctrine so every sect today is heretical from one point of view or another.

Your choice of font and the shadow box is highly distinctive but it is also almost unreadable. It is to your credit that I find in your thoughts the reason to force myself to dig beneath the surface details of appearance to understand the message...but it is a chore.
