Romans 9:1-5 – Isreality

October 30, 2018

Did God hate Esau? Did God harden Pharaohʼs heart so that he could not believe? Is God a Potter Who routinely rejects the majority of the human clay He created, rendering them lost and damned? These are all found in Romans chapter nine. Your first inclination – and itʼs a good one – is to say, “No.” But then what are we to make of incredible statements, like “Jacob have I loved, but Esau I have hated”? (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

Romans 9:6-13 – Don’t Call Me Ishmael

October 30, 2018

Letʼs say you were a first century Jew who had been born-again. And letʼs say you were a gracious individual who understood that Gentiles could be saved without conforming to Jewish rites and rituals. Still you would look out at what was happening spiritually and be confused. Israel was Godʼs “firstborn,” but they no longer had the birthright. God seemed to have set aside Israel as His firstborn nation in favor of the Gentiles. (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

Romans 9:14-18 – Know Mercy

October 30, 2018

Has anyone ever broken a promise they made to you? Of course they have! Had God ever broken a promise He has made to you? Of course He hasnʼt! It seemed, however, to the first century Jews in Rome and throughout the empire that God had indeed broken His promise, specifically His promise to Abraham. (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

Romans 9:19-24 – Clay Nation

October 30, 2018

Our text introduces us to a clay-nation, as it were. God is the Potter and Israel, in His sovereign hands, is like clay. Letʼs keep in mind the context of Romans nine, ten and eleven. Jewish believers were trying to reconcile Godʼs Old Testament prophecies and promises to Israel with their current circumstances in which Israel had been set aside while the Gospel was going out to the Gentiles.

Romans 9:25-29 – The Remnants Of The Day

October 30, 2018

Why should it be so strange that Gentiles would be saved? In fact, the Jews were charged with spreading the knowledge of God to the surrounding nations. It was always God’s will that none should perish. He has always been a whosoever will believe God of salvation. It should therefore come as no shock to the Jews of the first century that God was saving Gentiles. (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

Romans 9:30-33 – Stumble Thyself In The Sight Of The Lord

October 30, 2018

If the apostle Paul had a radio program, Iʼm pretty sure it would have been called, What Shall We Say Then? Those are the opening words of verse thirty, but itʼs now the fifth time heʼs used the phrase in Romans. It indicates he is about to draw a conclusion but, more than that, an inevitable conclusion. (Pastor Gene Pensiero)
