One of the softest pillows upon which the Christian can lay his head!

(Charles Spurgeon)

I am persuaded that the doctrine of predestination is one of the softest pillows upon which the Christian can lay his head--and one of the "strongest staffs" upon which he may lean, in his pilgrimage along this rough road.

"According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved." Ephesians 1:4-6

"In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:" Ephesians 1:11
