Message Subject Free Will vs. Predestination (Bible Believers)

Listen thoroughly to the podcast I did on TruthStream Oasis. Give it a listen first, OP. :-)

The stumbling block for people to understand predestination is always focused on this point....

"But how can God be righteous and predestine that some would never be written in the Lamb's Book of Life..???"

This IS what Romans 9 is ALL ABOUT!

Is God Unjust if He does this????

Paul asks that question and then answers it.

He says... "Who are you O MAN to reply against GOD saying... why did you make me like this??"

"Has NOT the POTTER power over the same lump of clay to make some vessels fitted for honor and some vessels fitted for destruction??" (I am paraphrasing here...)

The REAL issue that Romans 9 is trying to bring out of the DEPTHS of many people's hearts (that THEY THEMSELVES CANNOT SEE) is this.....

IF GOD IS GOD, and He created all things.... doesn't HE have the RIGHT to do whatever He wants with His own creation??

Watch the REBELLION SOAR TO THE SURFACE AND ROAR after that question is asked BABY!!!


Romans 9 is an ointment that draws rebellion to God in people's hearts STRAIGHT to the surface where it can be seen, if one will allow it to be seen.

ME???

I'm like Job who said......

Job 13:15.... "Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him.."

And in doing so, you have passed the test of faith for salvation is of faith.

The whole message of salvation is summed up this verse.

"God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

Selah. (Meditate on this)
