Episode notes
God Uses Sin Without Causing It
- God can subordinate sin to his purpose without being its author.
- Martyn Lloyd-Jones contrasts 'not creating sin' with God's control that uses human rebellion to display mercy, citing Pharaoh and Isaiah as examples.
Divine Necessity Frames Human Freedom
- Divine necessity pervades human freedom so God can press unbelief to highlight mercy.
- Lloyd-Jones quotes James Denny: God subordinates sin to his purpose but sin is not a constituent element of that purpose.
All Israel Means The Nation Restored
- 'All Israel shall be saved' refers to a future mass turning of the nation, not merely scattered elect Jews.
- Lloyd-Jones argues the chapter's focus is national Israel and its present judicial blindness until the fullness of the Gentiles.
