Here is a simplified understanding.
God does not pre-destine us to be SAVED, while others are pre-destined to be Damned.
Bottomline.
Let me bring this "pre-destined elect" Theology home to you reader.......
Scripture below which contradicts your premise.
Matthew 11:27
“All things have been handed over to Me by My Father; and no one knows the Son, except the Father; nor does anyone know the Father, except the Son, and
anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.” (Matthew 11:27).
John 1:13
13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.
John 6:37-39
“
All that the Father gives Me shall come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out. For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all that He has given Me I lose nothing, but raise it up on the last day.”
John 6:64-65
“But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him. And He was saying, “For this reason I have said to you,
that no one can come to Me, unless it has been granted him from the Father.”
John 15:16
You did not choose me, but
I chose you and appointed you
Acts 13:48
And when the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of the Lord; and
as many as had been appointed to eternal life believed (Acts 13:48).
Romans 8:29-30
For those God foreknew he
also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.
30 And
those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.
Romans 9:11-17
Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad — in order
that God's purpose in election might stand: 12 not by works but by him who calls — she was told, "The older will serve the younger."
13 Just as it is written: "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated."
14 What then shall we say? Is God unjust? Not at all!
15 For he says to Moses,
"I will have mercy on whom I have mercy,
and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion."
16 It does not, therefore, depend on man's desire or effort,
but on God's mercy.
Ephesians 1:5
In love
5 he predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will—
Ephesians 1:11
In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will,
Jude 1:4
"For certain people have crept in unnoticed
who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ." -
1 Peter 2:8
"and 'A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense.' They stumble because they disobey the word
, as they were destined to do." -
Romans 11:5-7
"So too at the present time
there is a remnant, chosen by grace. But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace. What then? Israel failed to obtain what it was seeking.
The elect obtained it,
but the rest were hardened" -
hope this helps !!!
