John Piper, in Episode 450 of the Ask Pastor John podcast,  gives the following Scripture as evidence of double predestination.  However, I thought it was interesting that prior to answering the question, Piper said that if thinking that God would double predestine makes you doubt His goodness, then don’t believe in double predestination.

• In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, – Eph 1:11 NKJV

• The LORD has made all for Himself, Yes, even the wicked for the day of doom. – Pro 16:4 NKJV

• Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient, “The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone,” – 1Pe 2:7 NKJV

• For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ. – Jde 1:4 NKJV

• By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber. – 2Pe 2:3 NKJV

• (for the children not yet being born, nor having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who calls), – Rom 9:11 NKJV

• “I have loved you,” says the LORD. “Yet you say, ‘In what way have You loved us?’ Was not Esau Jacob’s brother?” Says the LORD. “Yet Jacob I have loved; But Esau I have hated, And laid waste his mountains and his heritage For the jackals of the wilderness.” – Mal 1:2-3 NKJV
