Thesis 129 (p.45)
Indeed, we hear that this is the will and good pleasure of the Father from eternity, that those who belive in the Son should have eternal life (John 6 & 1 Corinthians 1); and that it is those who were ordained to eternal life who believe (Acts 13); or (using a paraphrase for those who are predestined) those who would believe in Christ for eternal life (1 Timothy 1); similarly in Romans 8, that they have been predestined to salvation who are justified (but only believers are justified, according to Romans 3), that those were predestined who are finally glorified (but only believers in Christ will be glorified, as all Scriptures testify), that they have been predestined who, in the time of grace [sorry Mark Jeske], hope in Christ, who have the remission of sins, and who have been received into the inheritance of saints (Ephesians 1); indeed that we were elected into faith in the truth (2 Thessalonians 2), and for this reason, faith is called the faith of the elect of God (Titus 1); that those have been predestined whom the Lord knows to be His (but for "His" He knows only believers, and would say to the rest in Matthew 7, "I never knew you"); that they have been elected by God who are rich in faith, who will be heirs of the kingdom (James 2); and finally, that only the sons of God have been predestined (as the Formula of Concord testifies, to which Huber swore himself); but the sons of God are only believers, as St. John and the Apostle Paul bear witness (John 1 & Galations 3).
