Answer:

E. election can be gained through good works.

Explanation:

John Calvin born on the 10th of July, 1509 was a French pastor, reformer and theologian during the times of protestant reformation in Geneva, Switzerland.

John Calvin was a calvinist because he preached a doctrine that was later known as calvinism.

In his work titled "Institutes of the Christian Religion." he stated that, all human beings are wicked and weak; thus, no matter what, only those who were predestined would be privileged to go to heaven.

Basically, the doctrine of calvinism known as predestination emphasizes that, God has chosen or selected some people to be destroyed eternally and others to be saved (go to heaven). Also, those people who have been predestined for eternal destruction cannot be saved even by their good works.

<em>Hence, the statement which best describes John Calvin's conception of Predestination are;</em>

I. Faith is a gift from God, freely given and not something that can be earned .

II. The choices one makes in life do not improve one’s chances of entering  

heaven .

III. An individual’s actions accord with God’s will .

IV. The elect are chosen by God.
