Election:
Equal privilege:	The royal priesthood.  A priest represents man before God.  Privacy of the priesthood means you represent yourself before God.  Successful execution of the priesthood is made possible by …
Equal opportunity:	Logistical grace support.  God provides all your needs for life: food, clothing, shelter, and godliness: Bible doctrine, filling of the Holy Spirit, mentorship of the holy Spirit, a pastor-teacher, grace apparatus for perception, local church, (or tapes, Internet, books), and physical protection.
Predestination:
Equal privilege:	Baptism of the Holy Spirit or positional sanctification.  This is union with Christ where we share all that He possesses. 
Equal opportunity:	The availability of the four spiritual mechanics which when executed fulfill the spiritual life of the Church Age.  In time this includes the availability of the operational divine power system in which we execute the spiritual life of the Church Age through utilization of the divine operating assets associated with it.  Jesus Christ executed the prototype, we are granted the same system for the fulfillment of the plan of God for our lives.

Technically, election is God’s agreement with foreknowledge and puts a stamp of approval on what it indicates He decreed.  Omniscience knew certain people would use free will to believe.  God decreed such would actually occur.  Foreknowledge confirms that decree.  Election agrees with foreknowledge that the decree contains the decision to believe.  Predestination is God’s predetermined plan for each believer.
Election is declared through foreknowledge; it is the function of predestination.  Both are printouts from the divine decrees’ sovereignty of god chip.  Predestination determines the certain futurition of all events related to the believer.  Predestination, then, is the predetermined plan of the believer who has been elected.
