Send us a textThis week we continue our critical our study in chapters 9-11, a continuation on the doctrine of salvation. Paul, inspired by the Holy Spirit, has brilliantly declared to us the gospel of Jesus Christ, the power of God unto salvation. Yet a question looms. What about Israel? According to the scriptures, God has made tremendous and undeniable promises to Israel. Promises that are unconditional and depend on God alone. These promises centered on Jesus, their messiah who they crucified and were now in the process of rejecting. Had God failed to keep His promise to Israel? Had God failed to keep His word?Paul begins to answer this question by presenting to us the righteousness of God revealed in His sovereign choice. Last week we looked at two illustrations of God's sovereign election according to the scriptures. This week we will look at one more. God's sovereignty displayed in His Divine election is a subject that is far beyond any human mind yet to us as believers it is critical that we embrace it by faith.It has been said, "Try to explain election and you may lose your mind. Explain it away and you will lose your soul."The sovereignty of God displayed in election must be embraced by faith. No one is able to fully understand the sovereignty of God. Yet as believers there is great comfort when we embrace the reality of God's sovereignty by faith. It will develop a humility in our walk with God and even more, will make us more Christ like in our Christian journey.Remember that the gospel of Jesus Christ is based on His word. We can be secure in the promises God has made to us according to His word through Christ since He indeed is keeping His promises to Israel. God's promises to Israel are indeed valid, they have been fulfilled, are being fulfilled, and will be fulfilled completely. God is true! His word is true! God's word to Israel is sure. His Word to us is sure as well. We are eternally secure in Christ Jesus.Contact Paul at [email protected] Sunday May 5th, we have changed locations and will meet on Sundays at 10 am.
