Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
God's ultimate purpose is to shape us into the likeness of His Son.
Those whom He foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son. God's goal isn't merely our happiness but our Christlikeness. Every circumstance, trial, and blessing works toward this purpose—conforming us to Jesus's image. This is why spiritual growth matters—we're becoming like Christ. The process is guaranteed by God's sovereign plan.
