John Calvin
he preached predestination
You write it as you go. The idea of predestination cannot really be rationalized. Since we are inherently rational beings, you could reason that predestination would not be a logical belief.
The ideas of predestination were that God decided the fate of a person's soul before they were even born. the idea of the doctrine of free will was that people's own actions determined their salvation.

Calvin believed in double predestination, which means that people are destined either for hell or heaven before they are even born. Luther did not believe in predestination of the soul
John Calvin preached about his theory of predestination. Basically, it was the idea that only certain people are going to Heaven and they have already been chosen by God. Everyone else is damned.
Martin Luther was the one who came up with the modern view of predestination in Lutheranism, which is that people are predestined to heaven, but they are not predestined to hell.Answer Martin Luther was not at all focused on predestination, however, since for him "justification by grace through faith" was the focus of Christianity. Other Protestants, such as Calvin, were much more interested in the idea of predestination, so in Calvinist denominations predestination plays a much more central role than it does in Lutheranism.
Augustine said that there was free will, not predestination. Although this goes against predestination, Augustine wasn't writing in terms of predestination because he lived 1100 years before Calvin proposed predestination.
If you are saved, heaven is your predestination.
I think you and I stand in predestination.
John Calvin. One of the effects of Luther's Reformation, Calvin rose up and started his own sect that is most famously none for the idea of predestination.
