JACOB: CHOSEN GENESIS 25 & 27

Sovereignty of God makes REST possible Human free will makes RESPONSIBILITY necessary

God’s promise is fulfilled through His sovereign choice God’s choice, not human effort God’s choice, not human tradition God’s choice, not human virtue

God’s promise is fulfilled through His sovereign choice God’s choice demonstrates God’s mercy Romans 3:10–12 “None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God. All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one.”

God’s promise is fulfilled through His sovereign choice God’s choice demonstrates God’s mercy 1 Corinthians 1:27–29 But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; God chose what is low and despised in the world... so that no human being might boast in the presence of God.

God’s promise is fulfilled through His sovereign choice God’s choice demonstrates God’s mercy Ephesians 1:3-6 The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ... has blessed us... chosen us... predestined us to adoption... to the praise of the glory of His grace....

God’s promise is fulfilled through His sovereign choice God’s choice demonstrates God’s mercy God’s choice demonstrates God’s sovereignty Sovereignty = authority

Romans 9:10–12...when Rebekah had conceived children by one man,...Isaac, though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad – so that God’s purpose according to His choice would stand, not because of works but because of Him who calls – she was told, “The older will serve the younger.”

God’s promise is fulfilled through His sovereign choice God’s choice demonstrates God’s mercy God’s choice demonstrates God’s sovereignty Sovereignty = authority Sovereignty = power

God’s promise is fulfilled through free human choice Acts 2:23 Jesus the Nazarene... delivered over by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God, you nailed to a cross by the hands of godless men and put Him to death.

God’s promise is fulfilled through free human choice Esau chose to sell his birthright Hebrews 12:15–16 See to it... that there be no immoral or godless person like Esau, who sold his own birthright for a single meal.

God’s promise is fulfilled through free human choice Esau chose to sell his birthright Jacob chose to steal the blessing Kent Hughes “The invincible determination of God to keep his word despite the prevailing unbelief and unfaithfulness of his people.”
