Unshakable and Unconditional

Romans 9 addresses whether God's word has failed due to Israel's rejection of Christ. Paul explains that true children of God are not determined by physical descent from Abraham but by God's promise. Using examples of Isaac and Jacob, Paul demonstrates that God's choice is purposeful and unconditional, based on His sovereign mercy rather than human merit. This doctrine should humble us, comfort us with the security of God's unshakable plan, and motivate us to share the gospel, knowing God will save His people through our proclamation.
