God works through nations to accomplish his will, just as he works through individuals. Just because Israel was the chosen nation to bring forth the Messiah did not mean that every Israelite would be individually saved. Individual salvati0n has never been and will never be based on a person’s nationality. Paul is talking about the nation of Israel in Romans 9, not individual salvation."

@NikonRules303 Geisler is dead wrong. All the classic Protestant commentaries are against his Catholic misinterpretation. Why do you think so many of Geisler's students have renounced the gospel and converted to popery? Frank Beckwith is a good example of apostasy. You need to take a course in hermeneutics.

[NikonRules303]

It is a serious exegetical mistake to interpret Romans 9 to be referring to individuals’ salvation. According to Norman Geisler, “the election of the nation was temporal, not eternal; that is, Israel was chosen as a national channel through which the eternal blessing of salvation through Christ would come to all people (cf. Gen. 12:1–3; Rom. 9:4–5). Not every individual in Israel was elected to be saved (9:6).”

[FaithDefenders2008]

@NikonRules303 The Catholic attempt to avoid the message of Rom. 9 was refuted by the Reformers. "Roman" Geisler's revival of Catholic teaching is in line with his love of Papist Natural theology (rationalism). I refuted Geisler in my new book, The Bible, Natural Law and Natural Theology.

@CptQuestionMark Thanks Bro. People do not want to know the truth today.

[CptQuestionMark]

Anybody preaching otherwise is a lying hell-bound hypocritical false prophet!

God bless you Dr. Morey for teaching the word of god in it's true form! God hates all workers of iniquity!

@OlegVyaz Remember "sin" does not exist like we do. It does not occupy space or time and does not have being. You cannot bring me a pound of sin and put it on the table. "Sin" is the violation of the Law of God or lack of conformity to it. God puts sinners in hell, not sin. Christ died on the cross under the anger of God, not sin. If "sin" is the object of God's anger and not sinners, then why did Jesus die? We do not take up God's nature. That is a Mormon heresy.

[OlegVyaz]

@FaithDefenders2008 God hates sin, if a person is a sinner they have a sinful nature. God loves people thus He sent Jesus. Jesus did die in a Sinners place a place deserving for People. Jesus bore the wrath of God on Sinners. Now people have the option of taking up Gods nature in exchange for the old man sinful nature.

God loves the people, hates sin, but without receiving Jesus God will have to Judge Sinners rightfully.

[FaithDefenders2008]

@NikonRules303 I examine over a dozen passages in Scripture that states that God hates the wicked and brings his wrath upon them in this life and in eternal conscioius punishment. Your problem is that you assume that "hate" for God is the same as it is for you. But God's anger and wrath are not to be lowered to what we sinners do and feel. No one says that Goid's election is arbitrary.

[FaithDefenders2008]

@NikonRules303 Yes. They do not how to interpret Scripture by grammar, syntax, and context. Instead, they use their emotions.

[NikonRules303]

Romans 9 refers to Israel’s past, Romans 10 refers to her present, and Romans 11 refers to her future.

[NikonRules303]

Since when does the God of love hate people? This verse, coupled with the rest of Romans 9, has led many to believe that God does not love all people, at least with regard to their eternal salvation. He seems to arbitrarily choose some people for salvation and some people for damnation. But must we interpret this verse in that way?

No! A more careful reading of this passage indicates that the subject is not individual salvation, but Israel’s national role in redemptive history.
