The church was planned by Jehovah, prophesied by the prophets, and
fulfilled in harmony with the prophets. The church stands today as
a monument of evidence to the futuristic foresight of the
prophets. The church comprises the saved, Acts 2:47. Man must
become a part of God's preplanned arrangement to be saved. This is
what is involved when the New Testament speaks of "foreordained"
(Eph. 1:11) and "predestined" (Eph. 1:4). One hears, believes and
obeys the gospel and agrees with God's prearranged plan, thus, is
added to that which God planned from the beginning.
