People who believe in predestination will sometimes cite Ephesians 2:8-9 in support of their beliefs:
 
<blockquote>For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. ([[KJV]])</blockquote> Several verses in [[Book of Romans|Romans]] 8 are also used to support this view.

In the [[Unification Church]], predestination is limited to the idea that God chooses someone for a great role or mission. The choice is not up to the individual, but his decision to fulfill God's will is.

No one is predestined for hell. A person goes to heaven or hell depending on his earthly choices affecting his character (see [[spiritual growth]]).
