Pastor Jack Hibbs is passionate about life! This passion comes out of his deep understanding that God, who came to earth in human skin, has through Jesus Christ provided the way, the truth, and the life. Our relationship with God, broken because of our sin, can be restored through Him. Jesus said He came to give us "abundant" life. That's real life done God's way!

Our relationship with Christ and His instructions about the Christian life should impact every area of our being. That's right! God's Word -- the Bible -- speaks to the real life issues we all face. Depression. Joy. Suffering. Forgiveness. Peace. Fulfillment.

It is our hope that through Jesus Christ you will know Real Life!

Welcome to Calvary's Online Campus! 
 
In this Bible study, we explore Romans chapter 9, one of the most controversial chapters in the New Testament. This message focuses on the first eleven verses, delving into Paul's profound grief for Israel and God's sovereign plan throughout history. 
 
We examine how Paul's heartbreak for unbelieving Israel mirrors the anguish of those who intercede for loved ones far from God, similar to how Augustine's mother Monica prayed tearfully for her son. We unpack Paul's stunning statement that he would be willing to be “accursed from Christ” for the sake of his people, revealing a depth of sacrificial love that reflects Christ's own heart. 
 
This message carefully navigates the theological complexities surrounding Israel's special blessings - the adoption, glory, covenants, law, temple service, and promises - while explaining how God's sovereign choice works throughout history. We explore the important distinction between being physically descended from Abraham and being spiritually children of promise, using the biblical examples of Isaac and Ishmael, Jacob and Esau. 
 
Whether you're struggling with questions about God's faithfulness, the place of Israel in redemptive history, or the nature of divine election, this message offers biblical wisdom that balances theological depth with pastoral sensitivity. 
 
We pray that you are blessed by the message!

Divine Election (Part 2)| Tom Pennington | Romans 9:6-29

By revelation, Christ made Himself known onto Paul the mystery contained in Scriptures (Ephesians 3:3): with the new heart a person, Jew or Gentile, believes onto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation from his or her sins, Hell and damnation. Christ Jesus shall save his people from their sins, (Matthew 1:21). For Christ Jesus wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation, (Revelation 5:9). 

Through active fellowship with God, who changes hearts onto salvation, we are rooted into the Faith of Christ and live out lives solely governed by the Holy Scriptures, the Bible, so that we may be perfect and furnished onto good works (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Hereby having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God, as we pass the time of our sojourning here in fear.

Take Up The Cross

A Commentary on Romans 9:6-23, by John Calvin. 
 
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? Why dost thou strive against him? for he giveth not account of any of his matters. Who hath enjoined him his way? or who can say, Thou hast wrought iniquity? Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge? Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me. Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it. Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous? 
~ Micah 6:8, Job 33:13, Job 36:23, Job 38:2-3, Job 40:2, Job 40:8 
 
Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good? So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen. 
~ Matthew 20:15-16 
 
Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again; Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 
~ Titus 2:9, 1 Corinthians 1:20 
 
Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. 
~ 1 Timothy 6:5 
 
Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding? Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands? Woe unto him that saith unto his father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth? Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me. 
~ Isaiah 29:16, Isaiah 45:9-11 
 
20. But, O man! who art thou? etc. (303) As it is a participle in Greek, we may read what follows in the present tense, who disputest, or contendest, or strivest in opposition to God; for it is expressed in Greek according to this meaning, -- "Who art thou who enterest into a dispute with God?" But there is not much difference in the sense. (304) In this first answer, he does nothing else but beat down impious blasphemy by an argument taken from the condition of man: he will presently subjoin another, by which he will clear the righteousness of God from all blame. 
 
It is indeed evident that no cause is adduced higher than the will of God. Since there was a ready answer, that the difference depends on just reasons, why did not Paul adopt such a brief reply? But he placed the will of God in the highest rank for this reason, -- that it alone may suffice us for all other causes. No doubt, if the objection had been false, that God according to his own will rejects those whom he honours not with his favour, and chooses those whom he gratuitously loves, a refutation would not have been neglected by Paul. The ungodly object and say, that men are exempted from blame, if the will of God holds the first place in their salvation, or in their perdition. Does Paul deny this? Nay, by his answer he confirms it, that is, that God determines concerning men, as it seems good to him, and that, men in vain and madly rise up to contend with God; for he assigns, by his own right, whatever lot he pleases to what he forms. 
 
But they who say that Paul, wanting reason, had recourse to reproof, cast a grievous calumny on the Holy Spirit: for the things calculated to vindicate God's justice, and ready at hand, he was at first unwilling to adduce, for they could not have been comprehended; yea, he so modifies his second reason, that he does not undertake a full defence, but in such a manner as to give a sufficient demonstration of God's justice, if it be considered by us with devout humility and reverence.

Study the entire Bible verse by verse.

I have been teaching the Bible verse by verse on radio and television for over 30 years. My goal has always been to teach it in a clear simple understandable way, and to make it as practical as possible. As the name implies these commentaries are basic, and hopefully they will make Scripture more understandable for you. I pray they are used by God to draw you closer to Christ.

Thank you for joining us online as we worship, pray, and study the Word of God together. Pastor Paul will be continuing our series in Romans called "The Gospel Proclaimed & Practiced." Today, we're in Romans 9 with a message entitled “Did God Break His Promises to Israel?" We pray that you'll be encouraged by the time together online. We will be observing communion as well, so pause for a moment, grab a piece of bread and some juice as we reflect on the sacrifice of our Savior who brought us salvation. God bless.
