Romans Chapters 9-11
In this episode Matt and Stu will discuss:
- The Gospel and the Intersection between Responsibility (Human) & Sovereignty God (9:1-5)
- Gospel has always been based on election. (9:6-13)
- Gospel has always been based on Justice and Mercy (9:14-18)
- Gospel has always been based on God’s Sovereignty. (9: 19-29)
- The Pursuit of Righteousness based on merit. (9:30 – 10:4)
As we move into Chapter 11, we see Paul shift from, what might seem a discouraging assessment of the Israel’s past and present spiritual life – to a amazingly positive assessment about Israel’s future – all Israel will be saved!
- Paul (New Testament) and the remnant of Israel (Old Testament) shows that God has NOT rejected his people. (11:1-10)
- God has delivered the Gospels to the Gentiles. (11:11-22)
- Praise is the natural response to God’s merciful plans for the salvation of the human race. (11:33-36)
God is willing to harden the heart of those who are disobedient to his revelation - equally - God is willing to create conditions that motivate the wayward person to desire him.
