The Doctrine of Election

Sermon on Belgic Confession Article 16 - The Doctrine of Election - Scripture reading from Romans 9 - Trinity Reformed Church - July 14th, 2024

Romans 9:15-18 15 For He says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion.” 16 So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy. 17 For the Scripture says to the Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared in all the earth.” 18 Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens.
