    The Choice Of Israel Is In The Sovereign Purpose Of God Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Nov 23, 2019
     | 4,388 views

    God is not obligated to save anybody, for all deserve to be condemned. Even Israel was chosen only because of His grace and love.

    (32) The Choice of Israel is in the Sovereign Purpose of God Romans 9:14-24 14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? Certainly not! 15 For He says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion.” 16 ...read more

    Cross Purposes 3: Mercy And Justice Series

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on Dec 13, 2019
     | 4,188 views

    Why can't God ignore or excuse sin? Sacrifice of atonement (OT background). Righteousness through faith. God is "just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus."

    CROSS PURPOSES 3: Mercy and Justice Crosses are everywhere: Hanging on chains around people’s necks. Tattooed on people’s bodies. Surrounded by artificial flowers along the side of the road, where an accidental death occurred. Lined up in cemeteries, or on grave markers. Towering over churches, ...read more

    Full - Pt. 3 - Purpose Full Series

    Contributed by Steve Ely on Jan 26, 2017
     | 8,386 views

    We prefer full over empty! Jesus says He came that we might have abundant (full) life. Do we? Do we even know what we should be full of?

    Full Pt. 3 - Purpose Full I. Introduction Are you full? If so, what are you full of? Your "fullness" will determine what overflows to every area of your life. And yet the truth is that if we find ourselves closer to the "e" than the "f" we are in the majority. In a recent study of 1,000 churches ...read more

     | 2,960 views

    These verses show that God's purpose is to provide good for those who love Him and are the called. So what does it mean: "called according to His purpose"? I think the context of this statement provides the answer.
