WE HAVE NO BUSINESS QUESTIONING GOD'S SOVEREIGN CHOICE IN SALVATION (EXERCISING HIS RIGHT TO SELECTIVELY FORGIVE SOME BUT TO CONDEMN MANY)
1. (:14-18) Is God Unjust?
Election Is Consistent With the Divine Character.
God is always just, but salvation is mainly an issue of God's right to exercise selective mercy.
2. (:19-21) Can Man still be held Accountable?
Election Is Consistent With Human Responsibility.
As God's creation, who are we to question God's inalienable right to shape us as he sees fit!
3. (:22-24) Why Does God Delay in Showing His Wrath?
God's Patience Serves to Give Opportunity for the Magnifying of His Selective Mercy
