Did Henry VIII believe in predestination?

This is a vexed question. John Wesley did believe in predestination, just a difference kind of predestination than his Calvinist brethren. Wesley was Arminian in his doctrine. He had disagreements over the issue with his friend and fellow worker George Whitfield, who believed in the Calvinist form of predestination. Hard predestination (Whitfield's kind) understands God to be ultimately in charge of deciding whether each individual is "saved" or not. Soft predestination (Wesley's kind) recognizes that God knows who will be saved and who will not, but God does not decide that for each individual.
