Message: “Who Are You, O Man, Who Answers Back to God?” from Shawn Merithew

When we get to verse 19 of Romans 9, Paul is anticipating the third objection raised against what he has been teaching on the doctrine of individual election. The reasoning goes like this: If God has mercy on whom He desires and hardens whom He desires, how is it that He still holds men accountable for whether or not they believe and obey Him? Paul’s response is to remind us all that we are but clay in the hands of the Potter, and God is absolutely righteous in retaining for Himself the exclusive right to do whatever He wills with whomever He wills.
