Eph 1:4-5 tells us that before the foundation of the world God had already decided that he would redeem mankind though his only Son Jesus. He made that decision because he knew that eventually mankind would fall into sin and would need to be redeemed. John 3:16 tells us that he also made this choice because of his great love for mankind and also tells us that redemption is available to everyone who seek for it by accepting the great gift he gave us. Jesus was sent by God to become the mediator between us and God in order to establish a new covenant between mankind and himself, a new covenant built on better promises. One of these promises is the indwelling of God's Holy Spirit as a guide to wholeness, to intimacy with God. Jesus referred to the Holy Spirit as a river of living water that will refresh us and as a guide who will guide us in the path of righteousness. Those who receive Jesus as saviour are transferred from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of light and are reunited with God. Sadly many refuse God gift because the love darkness more then light, the embrace evil over righteousness thinking that God seek to control us but the truth is that seeks intimacy with us and this is only possible if we seek holiness. Heb 14:12 tells us that without holiness no man can see meaning interact or have intimacy with God not because he refuses but because he is light and in him there is no darkness at all. God gives us the power of choice or free will he offers us life, intimacy with him here on earth and eternal life with him through Jesus but you have the power to refuse and chose to spend eternity separated from him, it is your choice not his. His love and gift of salvation is always available while we are alive, once we die then comes the judgement where our eternity will be decided base on the choices we have made while we were alive.
