Pre-destination of the Elect and Quantum Cosmology

Predestination of the elect-the saved, is an apparently natural consequence of the omniscience of God. Quantum mechanics and the more emergent field of quantum cosmology are contemporary ways of viewing the Universe. In order to better understand the word of God over time I recommend getting a small Gideon's Bible to carry with you for years reading chapters as time permits.

If the universe is pre-determined, or even pre-created by God and simply unfolding its historical composition following its pre-design, the destination for all people is pre-determined even though they have free will within the context of creation.

Since the mid-90's there have been numerous excellent books on cosmology written by Nobel Prize winning physicists and others intended to be read by the general public. John D. Barrow's books are quite good. Recently I read one of his titled 'The Constants of Nature' published in 2002 that begins simply and ends with interestings ideas about the anthropic principle and its natural selections from amidst a universe with even an infinite number of sub-unit universes. Evidently Barrow has a new book out; it should be available at some library, or on-line bookstore could have it. The title is 'the book of Universes...

I have sought to write occassionally about the concept of God's predestination of all things in the Universe, and of all possible universes, in a synthesis of contemporary quantum cosmological theory with theology. It is quite an interesting topic for me at least.
