In the context of this discussion ... you will see that your fate has been decided and sealed.
"That work will have all been finished"
"Fate" is the wrong word to use in the context of Christ's ministry in the heavenly sanctuary with regard to the salvation of those who will finally be saved. It's liable to give readers the wrong understanding about our salvation in relation to the heavenly sanctuary.
Neither the Bible nor the Spirit of prophecy use the word "fate." "Fate" always has a negative meaning, and it is something beyond a person's control. God never decides the events related to salvation in a way that is beyond our control or our choice.
