Gospel installment: 09/01/2024Message title: 1.Why does He still find fault?Text: Romans 9 vs 14-231..God's offense in Romans 9 continues unabated..2..Who makes the difference between saved and unsaved?3..Many in the professing church world would argue and say, it is their decision that made the difference for them..4..And this saying, they were able to figure out Jesus by themselves and made the vote that changed the course of their destiny, which thing other people failed to do..5..And this of course is false... God is going to continue His defense and say, He alone is the Potter who made the determination of salvation and condemnation by fashioning from the same lump of clay vessels of honor and vessels of dishonor..6..Same lump of clay is a carryover from the earlier argument about Jacob and Esau being twins, from the same womb and father.. And that saying, the DIFFERENCE MAKER in this matter is God's sovereign will and purpose, not what man do or don't do.. 7..And that means, none can change themselves from being a vessel of dishonor to becoming a vessel of honor or vice versa (Wheat remains wheat and tares, tares as goats remain goats and never become sheep) .. God eternally cast this matter in stone, hence the objections...7..So, if that is what He did and left man no choice, why does He still find fault?8..Very goood question, but God answers it with a rebuke..Rom 9:20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?"9..God says, what qualifications do you have to argue against His decrees?And it is free!
