It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Today we looked at the sinful nature of man.
In our nature, our freewill is not inclined to the things of God, but towards ourselves and what we want.
Exodus 7:1-5
What does it mean by God will harden?
Does this mean God will directly act against Pharaoh and place evil in his heart that was not previously there?
No
Before we answer that, lets look at another topic.
Common Grace
Common grace is different than effectual grace.
This is grace that God shows to all of mankind.
Everything we are is sustained by the mighty hand of God.
The fact that Biden is still alive, is evidence of common grace.
Remember that mankind is incurably wicked at it’s core.
You remember how we spoke of the total depravity of man, how no one is as evil as they could be.
That is because of the common grace of God.
The fact that their is good in this world is evidence of the existence of God.
Flashback to Exodus
God doesn’t need to create evil in the heart of Pharaoh, He only needs to remove some of His common grace.
The wickedness of Pharaoh will do the hardening.
Some other examples of the hardening
Hebrew idiom being used.
It doesn’t mean God is hardening, but God is allowing them to continue in sin.
Some ask is God unjust for allowing some to be hardened and calling others?
It isn’t unjust.
We may not like that God extends mercy to some and not others.
But if it was required of God which some suggest, it wouldn’t be mercy, nor would it be grace.
When we say unfair, we are speaking of our feelings.
Romans 9:14-26
v.19
Some say “God made me this way!
I can’t help but doing it.
How can God judge me!?”
We should all come to the feet of Jesus with an attitude of gratitude.
Thankful to be loved by God.
