Oversimplified but yes. What you posted is not calvinism but the doctrine of election and predestination.

I believe that there is an elect chosen before the foundation of the world who were bought and paid for by the blood of Christ and given by the Father. All that were given by the Father WILL come to Christ by the power of holy spirit and persevere to the end and will be given a glorified body.
