The Cosmic Conflict

Summary

The sermon explores the cosmic conflict between good and evil as depicted in Genesis 3 and Revelation 12, connecting it to the story of Esther and the spiritual warfare underlying the conflict between Mordecai and Haman. It emphasizes that God's providence preserves His people despite opposition and that true identity as God's people is determined by His promise and mercy, not by fleshly descent. The message culminates in the teaching from Romans 9 that God's election is based on His sovereign mercy and purpose, offering hope that those once not His people can become children of the living God through Christ.
