This week we look at Romans Chapter 9 in which Paul starts a three-chapter look at Isreal and what the Expositors Commentary calls, "The problem of Israel: God's Righteousness Vindicated." In this study, we look at Paul's explanation of the sovereignty of God with examples from Jacob and Esau (among others).
God is the potter and can make from us whatever he likes.
Ultimately the question is, are you moldable clay, or hard as a rock?
