If God elects whom He saves, why pray for the lost or preach the Gospel? In this episode of Sermon B-Sides, Pastor Jon and Pastor Rusten explore Romans 10, unpacking Paul’s anguished prayer for Israel, the call to faith for all—Jew and Gentile—and why preaching is God’s chosen means for salvation. From zeal without knowledge to the inclusivity of “everyone who calls on the Lord,” they show how election fuels mission, not passivity. Does God’s sovereignty free us from evangelism—or empower it?
We hope you enjoy, and as usual, if you have any questions for Sermon B-Sides or anything else, email us at pastor@coramdeochurch.org.
