Scripture: Romans 9:1-16
Key Takeaways:
1. God did not promise salvation to every ethnic Israelite, but only to those he chose to be recipients of his saving love (Romans 9:6-29).
2. Generally speaking, Israel did not respond to Jesus in faith (Romans 9:30-10:21).
3. God faithfulness to Israel is seen in that there is a believing remnant (Romans 11:1-10).
4. God’s faithfulness to his promise to Israel will one day be seen in greater measure when God saves Israel in great numbers (Romans 11:11-32).
The Doctrine of Election
Ephesians 1:3–6 “3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, 4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love 5 he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, 6 to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved.”
2 Thessalonians 2:13 “13 But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the firstfruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.”
Titus 1:1 “1 Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the sake of the faith of God’s elect and their knowledge of the truth, which accords with godliness,”
1 Peter 1:1 “1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who are elect exiles of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,”
Colossians 3:12 “12 Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience,”
Many Christians throughout history have disagreed on this passage and on how to understand the doctrine of election.
Arminians and Calvinists.
At CATC we don’t have a flag, but we have a flavor.
The Doctrine of God’s sovereign election of particular sinners for salvation rarely sits well with us when we first hear it.
This is not a Pauline doctrine. Jesus taught this emphatically.
Personal salvation is ultimately grounded in God’s sovereign unconditional election of particular, undeserving sinners.
Romans 8:28–30 “28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. 29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30 And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.”
This doctrine humbles us to the dust.
This doctrine gives you tremendous boldness.
