Welcome to another episode of the "This is Gonna Hurt" podcast.  In this episode, Gordon concludes his sovereignty sermon series from Romans 9.14-24.  Thanks for listening.  Big Idea: God is Sovereign Part Three Is God Unjust aka Is God Unfair? Romans 9. 14 What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God's part? By no means! 15 For he says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” Salvation Depends on God Alone 16 So then it depends not on human will or exertion, but on God, who has mercy. 17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I might show my power in you, and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.” 18 So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills. Criticizing God’s Sovereignty Invites His Wrath 19 You will say to me then, “Why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?” 20 But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Wil

Who are the Children of the Promise? Does God Hate People? Did the Word of God Fail? Romans 9.6 But it is not as though the word of God has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel, 7 and not all are children of Abraham because they are his offspring, but “Through Isaac shall your offspring be named.” Who are the Children of the Promise? 8 This means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as offspring. Does God Hate People? 9 For this is what the promise said: “About this time next year I will return, and Sarah shall have a son.” 10 And not only so, but also when Rebekah had conceived children by one man, our forefather Isaac, 11 though they were not yet bo
