ROMANS 9:14-29
- Our Creator Rules His Creation (vv.14-18)
- The Example of Moses — God is completely in control, and we are not
- The Example of Pharaoh — God’s sovereign choices always involve His mercy
- God’s Way is always better (vv.19-29)
- God’s Absolute Sovereignty — God can do whatever He pleases. He answers to no one for what He does and He has no obligation to explain to anyone the reasons for His actions
- Hosea and Gomer— the Jews rejection of Christ had been predicted beforehand. God used the Jews hard heart to bring about a greater redemption story to invite the Gentiles into it.
- God chose to make people who were once excluded His very own (vv.27-29)
The amazing thing is not that God fails to extend His mercy to everybody, but that He extends it to anybody.
