Ben Grisez - Romans 9:1-33 God's Election Stands

Calvary Chapel Sydney

Synopsis: Paul shifts gears in this chapter to declare that God's word and purposes stand, and how the choices of our sovereign Creator are established by His power according to His wisdom. Paul explained how God's election is not based on the merit of those chosen, but by God to fulfill His purposes from beginning to end. Rather than finding fault with God ways, our call is to trust and praise Him.
