Episode Overview
- God has not abandoned his people, Israel.
- 'Foreordained' applies to both Jesus and Israel.
- Grace is a gift, not earned through works.
- Self-righteousness can be a barrier to receiving God's grace.
- Humility is essential in accepting Christ's righteousness.
When God gives you grace, he gives you something that you cannot produce yourself.
In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin dives into Romans 11:2-7, exploring the themes of salvation and grace. The discussion starts with Paul’s assertion that God has not abandoned his people, Israel, whom he foreknew. Colin explains the concept of 'foreordained' by comparing it to Jesus Christ's predestination before the foundation of the world. He goes on to highlight how this predestination applies to Israel and, by extension, to all believers.
This episode is rich with theological insights, breaking down complex biblical passages into understandable terms. Colin uses examples from scripture to illustrate that God's grace is not earned through works but is a gift freely given. He emphasises that our own righteousness can sometimes be a barrier to receiving God's grace, urging listeners to let go of their self-righteousness and accept the righteousness of Christ.
Colin's engaging style and deep understanding of scripture make this episode a must-listen for anyone interested in faith, grace, and salvation.
