It refers to the concept of events or outcomes being decided in advance, often by a higher power or fate. This idea is prevalent in various philosophical, theological, and even psychological discussions. In a theological context, it relates to the doctrine of predestination, where God's foreknowledge and will are seen as determining the fate of individuals, particularly regarding salvation. Philosophically, it can be explored in relation to determinism, the belief that all events, including human actions, are causally determined by preceding events and the laws of nature.
