<![CDATA[The purpose of this writing is to find out about predestination as the doctrine of salvation in Romans 8:29 according to the philosopher Augustine's thought as an answer to the question of the doctrine of predestination, on what basis did God determine His choice from the beginning? Because of the problems that arose among Christians regarding the predetermined election of God. If so, what about those whom God did not choose? Then is the election of God the same as the election of humans seen from the criteria? By looking at the existing problems, the writer is interested in studying predestination as one of the doctrines of the Christian faith. The writing method used is a qualitative approach with grammatical-historical methods and literature study methods. The grammar is intended to study the phrase "For he has chosen all as before" in Romans 8:29. Context analysis is connecting each word analyzed with the context in which the word is located. Literature study method, namely through the sources of books and literature related to the problem of this writing. The results of this writing provide an explanation that predestination is God's sovereign sovereignty in the doctrine of salvation, and the election of salvation is solely done by God on His omniscience, namely knowing from the beginning the person who is being saved.]]>
