Lutherans believe that the elect are predestined to salvation. God regenerates only individuals whom he has predestined to salvation. That is, God predestined sinful men for salvation. Zhang foretold that Yinsi was predestined for greatness. To Wycliffe, the Church was the totality of those who are predestined to blessedness. Lutherans believe Christians should be assured that they are among the predestined. This is a paradox as neither is achievable and both predestined for failure. However, people are not predestined by Allah to enter Hell.
