A Brief Exposition of Romans (Paul’s Doctrine Of Sovereignty) Part 1

Beloved,

Before the content of this section may be presented, it is necessary to once again highlight that in many an "Expositional" work there was no mention of Romans chapters nine, ten or eleven. This work does not intend to judge anyone's motives in this regard but simply the evidence as presented. In short, God’s sovereignty was obviously considered by Paul to be fundamental to a correct understanding of the gospel and accordingly, all those who come after should and must view Scripture in this same light. Secondarily, to maintain a consistent methodology through this brief exposition of Romans, the following headings are presented and discussed in a summary fashion. The expressed intent here is to survey the major tenants of Paul’s doctrine of God’s sovereignty and demonstrate how a correct understanding of this doctrine greatly contributes a balanced view of the gospel message. It is hoped that in so doing, those who would not otherwise give genuine credence to this doctrine will, by God’s grace, do so.
It seems that Paul is addressing the obvious question, “If God has purposed to bring salvation through faith, what does the universal nature of this faith mean for those who claim right standing before God through their ethnic heritage which includes the Law?” It should be apparent that for the holistic unity of the eternal Godhead to be maintained, the Apostle must address this question. Without the doctrine of God’s sovereignty, credible doubt is introduced as to God’s ability to bring His plans to completion. Thusly, one may rightly assert that God can only attempt to bring all things into consummation but actually has no real power to ensure that all things are brought into alignment with His ordained will. The ramifications of this line of questioning are far reaching and are manifest in modern times in the “Open Theism” movement. Therefore, sovereignty matters and not just the lip service of espousing God’s sovereignty but a full understanding and embracing of God’s sovereignty.
