Romans 8:29-30 reveals God's unshakeable plan for believers: to be conformed to Christ's image. God's foreknowledge means He knows all things before they happen, while predestination refers to what He has predetermined to do with everyone who believes - transform them into Christ's likeness. The golden chain of salvation shows that those God calls, He also justifies and glorifies. This passage offers profound assurance that God is actively working in believers' lives, not as tools for His glory but as participants in it. Rather than creating uncertainty, these verses provide bedrock security for every follower of Jesus Christ.
