Dr. Rogers continues preaching through The Book of Romans in this sermon on Romans 9:14-29 entitled, "God's Sovereign Right to Choose."

The startling truth about the sovereignty of God in election is not that He chooses some, but that He chooses any at all. God’s work in salvation, from beginning to end, is a work of grace and mercy, and He has the divine prerogative to do so as He wills.

Just as the potter has the right to do as he pleases with the clay, even more so God has the sovereign right to choose those whom He will show mercy to and those whom He will not.

In Romans 9:14-29, the Apostle Paul gives thorough explanation of God’s sovereign right to choose to show mercy. The plain truth is this: Mercy is given only because God chooses to give it. In this passage of Scripture, we see three principles about God’s sovereign right to choose, and in the understanding of these principles, we find great reason to rejoice in glory of God’s grace toward us in His Son Christ Jesus.
