According to one interpretation of the word, it means that only certain people are elected, which means only those people can go to Heaven, and there is no hope for anyone else.
The doctrine of predestination is most closely associated with John Calvin, a 16th-century Protestant Reformer. Calvin's theological system emphasized the sovereignty of God in salvation, asserting that God has predestined some individuals for salvation and others for damnation. While the concept of predestination existed prior to Calvin, his interpretation and teachings significantly shaped the doctrine within Reformed theology.

The doctrine of predestination is a theological concept primarily associated with Christianity, particularly in Reformed traditions. It asserts that God has eternally chosen certain individuals for salvation while others are destined for damnation, independent of their actions or faith. This belief emphasizes God's sovereignty and divine will in the process of salvation, suggesting that human efforts or merits do not influence God's predetermined plan. It often raises discussions about free will, grace, and the nature of divine justice.
No. Predestination is not part of Methodist doctrine and is not believed by most Methodists.
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.

Predestination is a Calvinistic doctrine that states that God is in complete control of the destiny of everyone. It is important because it creates a teaching that God is always on the throne.
If God wanted to, he could know everything in advance. For example, He chose not to know if Adam and Eve would disobey him in the Garden of Eden. Had he known in advance, he would be responsible for all the terrible things that have happened in the world as a result of their disobedience. God is notresponsible for the terrible deeds of mankind! ...Romans 5:12 and 18.

The doctrine of predestination is mostly associated with Calvinism, and the rejection of Calvinist doctrines of predestination is called "Arminianism." John Wesley was the most influential leader who preached Arminian doctrines and his theology spread through the Methodist movement. So denominations with roots in the Methodist movement (anything with "Methodist" or "Wesleyan" in its name, plus some others) generally do not preach predestination.
