(Lesson 4741) (01-27-25) Romans 9:17-18
“For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth. Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.”
In today’s lesson, Paul cited the example of Pharaoh, explaining that God raised him up to demonstrate His power and proclaim His name throughout the earth. Paul emphasized that God has mercy on whom He will and hardens whom He will, showing His sovereign authority over all. While this demonstrates God’s predestined purposes, it also reveals that individuals like Pharaoh and Judas were given ample time and opportunities to repent and believe, yet they chose to reject God. Their hardened hearts served to fulfill God's greater plan, showcasing His almighty will and ultimate purpose for His glory. ~
