Finally, Christians often isolate themselves from the world because they do not believe their lives could make any difference. This problem often arises when people take Biblical truths, such as predestination, out of context. In Ephesian 1:4-5a, it reads, “According as he hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be hold and without blame before Him in love: Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself…” People take this to mean that God has chosen His people, so the rest of humanity can give up on the currently unsaved because if God wants them, He will call them. However, this problem arises because humans do not always view themselves as God’s tools as well as children.
