For he chose us in Christ before the
foundation of the world that we may be holy
and unblemished in his sight in love. He did
this by predestining us to adoption as hissons through Jesus Christ, according to the
pleasure of his will.

10 And not only so, but also when Rebecca had conceived children by one
man, our forefather Isaac,
11 though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad
in order that God's purpose of election might continue, not because of works
but because of his call
12 she was told, The older will serve the younger.
13 As it is written, Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.
14 What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God's part? By no means!
15 For he says to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will
have compassion on whom I have compassion.
16 So then it depends not on human will or exertion, but on God, who has
mercy.
17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, For this very purpose I have raised youup, that I might show my power in you, and that my name might be proclaimed
in all the earth.
18 So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he
wills.
Romans 9:10-24

19 You will say to me then, Why does he still find fault? For who can resist
his will?20 But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say
to its molder, Why have you made me like this?
21 Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one
vessel for honored use and another for dishonorable use?
22 What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has
endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,23 in order to make known the riches of his glory for vessels of mercy, which
he has prepared beforehand for glory
24 even us whom he has called, not from the Jews only but also from the
Gentiles?

The end of the matter; all has been heard.
Fear God and keep his commandments,
for this is the whole duty of man. For Godwill bring every deed into judgment, with
every secret thing, whether good or evil.

Romans 10:11-13
For the scripture says, 'Everyone who
believes in him will not be put to shame.'
For there is no distinction between the
Jew and the Greek, for the same Lord is
Lord of all, who richly blesses all who callon him. For everyone who calls on the
name of the Lord will be saved.

16 For God so loved the world, that he gavehis only Son, that whoever believes in him
should not perish but have eternal life.
17 For God did not send his Son into theworld to condemn the world, but in order that
the world might be saved through him.
18 Whoever believes in him is not
condemned, but whoever does not believe iscondemned already, because he has not
believed in the name of the only Son of God.

Both truths in one
sentence...
Philippians 2:12-13
12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have
always obeyed, so now, not only as in mypresence but much more in my absence,
work out your own salvation with fear and
trembling,
13 for it is God who works in you, both to
will and to work for his good pleasure.

6 Seek the LORD while he may be found;
call upon him while he is near;
7 let the wicked forsake his way,
and the unrighteous man his thoughts;
let him return to the LORD, that he may have
compassion on him,and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
