Yasmin Dennis · Answer 2

C. Predestination

Explanation:

The theological foundation of John Calvin's protestanism was based on the doctrine of predestination. The doctrine states that reward for man was already selected or determined by God. Of all the people living on earth God has already determined those that will be with him in heaven. In all the people of earth God hasn chosen the ones he will save and the are called the 'elect'. nd thos who are not elect will be danmed forever. He further went ahead to say, no amount of good work by any individual will change the holy mind of God. This was in contrary to catholic doctrine that your good will be rewarded at the last day with a place in heaven. He was the one who populaized the doctrine of the sovereignty of God.
