Predestined

For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the first-born among many brethren. -- Romans 8: 29

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love. -- Galatians 5:6

The dignity of man rests above all on the fact that he is called to communion with God. This invitation to converse with God is addressed to man as soon as he comes into being. For if man exists it is because God has created him through love, and through love continues to hold him in existence. He cannot live fully according to truth unless he freely acknowledges that love and entrusts himself to his Creator.  -- Gaudium et spes
