Is God Unjust? (Rom 9:14-18)

Curtis BakerBy: Curtis Baker

Sometimes reading the apostle Paul is a tricky endeavor. Peter himself once said that Paul’s writings are “sometimes hard to understand,” (2 Peter 3:16) and you can believe if Peter struggled to understand Paul, so will we. With that in mind, there are few places in scripture where one struggles to understand Paul more than in Romans 9-11. It is one of Paul’s most important pieces of writings…and yet, it is also one of the most difficult to follow.

This week, we pick up the discussion in 9:14. Just to briefly review, in the first five verses of the chapter, Paul has expressed his utter anguish that many of his own people, his fellow Jews, were cut off from covenant with God because of their rejection of the Messiah. So bothered by this is Paul, that if he were able, he would offer his own self to be cursed, if only it would bring his fellow Jews back to God. Unfortunately, that option was not available. Every person must stand before God on the basis of their own life. This includes the people of Israel.

Just for Laughs – Two old-timers were chatting at a restaurant. One said, “Hey, Max, isn’t this your fiftieth anniversary?”

Max replied, “Yep.”

“Well,” his friend inquired, “What are you planning on doing?”

Max replied, “Well, I remember taking my wife to Arizona on our twenty-fifth anniversary.”

“Hmm,” the friend said, “You’ll have to do something special for your fiftieth. What are you going to do?”

“I guess,” Max answered, “I’ll go back to pick her up.”
