You're a Christian because god is drawing you.
Ever felt like the message of Romans 9:6-8 is a bit of a puzzle? You're not alone. In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin unpacks this often-misunderstood passage, shedding light on Paul’s deep concern for his fellow Israelites. Paul worried that despite receiving God’s promises, covenants, and laws, they hadn’t yet embraced salvation. But here's the kicker: Paul also reassures us that nothing can separate us from God’s love. So, what's really going on here?
Colin explains that this passage isn't about being a child of God by birthright but rather about being a child of the promise. It's not about whether we choose God; it's about how God reaches out to us, even when we feel unworthy or distant. Imagine God extending His hand to you, drawing you closer, especially in your darkest moments.
This episode dives into how faith-training in the Gospel of Christ can help intercept various addictions, whether it’s alcohol, drugs, food, or even obsessive worry. Colin emphasizes that it’s God who initiates this relationship, not us. If you've ever felt like you're wrestling with God, Colin assures you that it's actually God working within you. Feeling neglected by God? Think again. Colin reminds us that being drawn to faith is a sign of God’s active involvement in our lives.
Tune in for an enlightening discussion that bridges ancient scripture with modern struggles, offering hope and clarity for anyone on the journey to recovery.
