There’s a twisted theology that claims God handpicks a lucky few for salvation while the rest are doomed from the start. That’s not just off-base—it’s a flat-out misread of the Gospel.

In this latest message from our predestination series, we’re diving into Romans 8–9, where Paul reveals a long-hidden mystery: Gentiles are in. Yes, the so-called outsiders are now fully included in God’s plan.

This isn’t about favoritism or fate. It’s about real love and true freedom—the kind where anyone can believe, anyone can call upon the Lord, and anyone can be saved.

Don’t buy the sales pitch of selective love. Watch now and rediscover the Gospel that’s big enough for the whole world!

1. How is God’s foreknowledge different from controlling everyone’s moves?
2. React to this statement: God predestined every child of God to grow, being conformed to Christ’s image.
3. How is Romans 9:30-31 the summary of everything Paul wants to communicate?
4. In what way does this Romans passage mirror what we saw in Ephesians in Part 1?
5. React to this statement: Paul uses Jacob, Esau, and Pharaoh to defend God’s right to do whatever He wants. And now God wants to bring salvation to the Gentiles.
6. How does the Hosea quote in Romans 9:25-26 further expose the true meaning of predestination?
7. Why can the genuine message concerning predestination unite us (rather than divide us) and even offer a cure for racism?

What is repentance? What role does it play in salvation? What about in the daily life of the believer? Why do Christians still struggle with sin? Is it the presence of Satan or demons? Or do we have a sinful nature? What is the flesh? *previously aired

I’ve been married 48 years to a narcissist husband who refuses to work and plan for the future. I feel like a voodoo doll getting pins stuck in me every day. What should I do? Does Galatians 5 really mean that I won’t inherit the kingdom of God if I mess up too much? How do I reach someone who is into witchcraft and continues to ignore the gospel that I’ve presented to them many times?

What does it mean that Jesus is our Advocate? Is that like Him being our attorney, defending us before God? I have congestive heart failure, and it gives me tremendous fatigue. I end up irritable, and I get angry sometimes. What can I do? I’ve heard your message on predestination, but I’m not sure about Romans 8 and 9. Can you explain?

Despite the finished work of Christ, do we still ask God for things in prayer? If so, what things? Are there two judgment events or only one? Please explain the Bema seat and the Great White Throne. What exactly happens to the believer at the final judgment?

Sometimes what I do is out of tune with who I really am: I get angry. I cuss. Help me! What is Jesus talking about in Luke 21 with being counted “worthy”? How can I better know the Father?

Do we see the “gospel” in the Old Testament? If so, to what degree? And what makes the message better today? Your messages on God’s grace saved my life when I was ready to die! What can I do about finding local fellowship? How can I teach my young children about God‘s love and affirm their new identity in Christ? How do I “get to know” Christ? What does that even mean?

Is God running a cosmic game show, handing out Heaven like golden tickets? “You win. You lose. You—sorry, not even in the running?” That’s how a lot of folks read predestination. But what if we’ve had it wrong?

What if the “we” and “you” in Ephesians aren’t about individual selection or God picking favorites, but about Jews and Gentiles, and the floodgates of grace bursting wide open?

This isn’t divine favoritism. It’s divine inclusivity. A love that doesn’t draft a few but draws all. It’s not the Lord’s lottery—it’s the Gospel unleashed on the world.

Ready to rethink everything you thought you knew about predestination? Watch the message now!

1. Why do authorship (“we”) and audience (“you”) matter so much here?
2. Who were the first to hope in Christ (1:12)? Who are the “you also” in verse 13?
3. How does Ephesians 2:11-13 help us define even further who the “you” is?
4. In verse 17, who was “far away”? Who was “near”?
5. How is this a unifying message rather than a divisive one?
6. What does this mean for those who believe predestination is about individual selection?
7. What is the “mystery” Paul speaks of in chapter 3? Is it still hidden or revealed? If revealed, how?
8. React to this statement: Jesus said, “I’ll draw all men,” not “I’ll draft a few.”

What does 1 Corinthians 3 mean about works burning up? Do Christians have two fathers? Do we sometimes serve Satan? What is the meaning of “Son of Man”? My friend believes only water baptism can bring forgiveness of sins. I’m not sure we can get married if we disagree on this! Is that what Acts 2:38 is teaching us - that water baptism brings forgiveness?
