This is referring to the overcomers of Satan's rebellion.

The law could pronounce judgment on sin, but the law could not do anything about sin itself. It had no power to put sin to death in person's life. God accomplished what the law could not do by sending His own Son. Althought He was tempted, He never sinned.

I am called, justified and glorified. God not only foreknew and pretestined ( v 29 ), He also called believers through the preaching of the gospel message ( 2 Tess 2:14 ). This call refers to the internal work of the Spirit in the hearts of God's elect to bring them to belief in Christ ( Acts 16:14 ). Being justified means being " declares righteous.: )

Does God’s ability to foreknow and foreordain events prove that he does this regarding all the actions of all his creatures?

Rev. 22:17: “Let anyone hearing say: ‘Come!’ And let anyone thirsting come; let anyone that wishes take life’s water free.” (The choice is not foreordained; it is left to the individual.)

Rom. 2:4, 5: “Do you despise the riches of his kindness and forbearance and long-suffering, because you do not know that the kindly quality of God is trying to lead you to repentance? But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath and of the revealing of God’s righteous judgment.” (There is no forcing of individuals to pursue a prescribed course. But there is accountability for what one does.)

Zeph. 2:3: “Seek the LORD, all you meek ones of the earth . . . Seek righteousness, seek meekness. Probably you may be concealed in the day of the LORD’s anger.” (Would a just and loving God encourage people to do what is right, in hope of a reward, if he knew that they were foreordained not to succeed?)

You see, God is calling to everyone, justification is dependant on obedience, glorification is for the Almighty, (as those who are obedient bring glory to God.)

I won't be glorified until Jesus takes me away.
