2 TIMOTHY 1:9 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,”
who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began — God's redemptive action (sōzō) precedes faith, flowing from purpose (prothesis) and grace (charis) eternally decreed in Christ. Election transcends works and precedes cosmic time.
