Did God Choose You, or Did You Choose God?

from Words From The Word · host Good News Baptist Church of St. Maarten

Did God choose you, or did you choose God? That is one of the most searched and debated questions in all of Scripture, and in this devotion Pastor Roderick Webster opens the Bible to help us see what God actually says.Drawing from passages including Joshua 24:15, Isaiah 1:18, Matthew 11:28-30, John 5:40, John 6:37, Romans 9:11, and Revelation 22:17 (KJV), Pastor Webster walks through both sides of a truth the Bible holds together without apology — the sincere invitation to every person to come, and the sovereign election of God that calls His own to Himself.You might be asking:- If God already chose who would be saved, does my choice even matter?- Does the Bible really teach predestination?- Why does Jesus keep saying "come" if salvation is already decided?- What does "whosoever will" actually mean?Key points from this devotion:- God issues a compelling invitation to every person to respond to Him- Joshua, Isaiah, John the Baptist, and Jesus all called people to choose and to come- Scripture also clearly teaches that God foreknew and predestined those who believe- Both truths — human responsibility and divine election — are taught side by side in the Word- Your response to the gospel matters, and God promises He will not cast away anyone who comesIf this devotion blessed you, please like, leave a comment, share it with someone, and subscribe to stay connected with Words From The Word.#WordsFromTheWord #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving #GoodNewsBaptistChurchStay connected with GNBC:🌐 Website: www.gnbcnetwork.org📻 Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/0cJVbqsER3JsmCutovjVYH
