But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth. ~ 2 Thessalonians 2:13

“In the bond between faith and sanctification we perceive, no less than in the bond between faith and justification, the pulse-beat of the Gospel. If faith will lift its blossoms to catch the sunlight of God’s grace, the fruit will be a life imbued with holiness.” — G. C. Berkouwer “Faith and Sanctification”

Christianity demands of us both love and truth. Listen to this expounded from Romans 9.

Are you ready for Romans 9? Some portions of the Bible are more difficult to understand or accept than others. The Apostle Peter acknowledged that Paul’s letters “contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction” (2 Peter 3:16). Which of Paul’s letters did Peter have in mind? Probably Romans, and possibly Romans 9-11.

Romans 9 “makes men submissive to God.”

“Life has great anguish, great grief, deep heartache, for Christians and non-Christians alike. … There are times when even committed believers feel like they can’t go on. They want to give up, to throw in the towel. … David was experiencing some of these feelings when he wrote the contemplative psalm we call Psalm 55.”

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. 1 Peter 4:12-13

This sermon is appropriate for this week as our Bible reading schedule begins the book of Job tomorrow.

Life is full of trials, but our God is faithful to His own, to love and uphold them that trust in Him.

May you be blessed by this sermon this week.
