Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Predestination we call the eternal decree of God, by which He has determined in Himself what would have to become of every individual of mankind. For they are not all created with a similar destiny; but eternal life is fore-ordained for some, and eternal damnation for others.
Detailed explanation-2: -In a letter of January 12, 1538, to Bucer, Calvin mentions Luther for the first time. He writes that he is convinced of his piety but is not sure what to think of him further. 46 Calvin thinks that Luther clings so tightly to his doctrine of the Lord’s Supper that he thereby hinders a reformational unity.
