Romans 9King James Version (KJV)
2 It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.
15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.
19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?
20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
It is within the above aforementioned verse that we can learn to realize that our understanding is not his understanding and that in this physical life we are not in control as we would like to perceive it and that our perception is limited and skewed at times from outside sources.
Our faith, hope and LOVE for him through his son JESUS is the principles by which we maintain any formula for understanding.
We look at Job's and his affliction. we look at Lot and his vexations, and we also look to the word of GOD the heavenly father; the holy scriptures and find that.......
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.(2 timothy 3:12)
The enemy the devil is roaring around us like a lion; seeking whom it can devour....in opposition especially to those whom would live a righteous life following JESUS CHRIST the son of GOD.
Praise be to GOD the heavenly father and his son lord JESUS CHRIST forever>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
