I have been wrestling with Romans 9 to 11 recently. If you are a preacher, you will no doubt relate to my problem.
Having preached through Romans a couple of times, I always want to stop at chapter 8, not just for the glory of that ‘no separation’ finish, but also because I want to avoid Romans 9 and all the pastoral complications it brings.
It’s not that I want to duck any part of Scripture. But I confess it sometimes feels like a ‘no win’ situation when you face the hard edges of predestination, double, single or otherwise. But this time has been different.
