When considering predestination, it is helpful to view things through the eyes and perspective of Jesus Christ. When Christ chose to love his bride, the church, before the world began, he saw his bride in her final, perfect state at the marriage supper of the Lamb, holy and without blemish before him in love. There was a lot that had to happen to clean up this bride to be perfect at that day, but Christ has been eagerly anticipating the marriage supper of the Lamb since before the world began, and we early anticipate that day as well.
