This week on Beyond the Pulpit we trace Jacob and Esau from Genesis 25 into Hebrews and Romans 9 to show how Scripture uses real events to reveal God’s sovereignty and our responsibility. We challenge fatalism, highlight faith alone for salvation, and show why right doctrine fuels urgent mission.
• Hebrews’ warning through Esau’s birthright
• Romans 9 and the oracle to Rebekah
• Why Paul chose twins over Ishmael and Isaac
• Election grounded in God’s call, not works
• Human responsibility affirmed alongside sovereignty
• Inclusion of Gentiles by faith alone
• Paul’s model: persuade, adapt, and “save some”
• Avoiding hyper-Calvinism and apathy
• Grace-driven effort in ministry and mission
