Unconditional Election - 4
Our study of the key proof text for the 2nd tenet of Calvinism, "Unconditional Election," Romans 9:10-16, continues. We consider God's statement, "Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated," showing that it did not apply to individuals, but to the nations that came from these men. We also look at God's declaration, "I will have mercy (and compassion) on whomever I will." and how this, too, is not about individuals but a nation.
Scripture References: Romans 9:13-16, Malachi 1:1-3, Exodus 32:1-14, Exodus 33:12-23
From Series: "A Scriptural Look at Calvinism"
