The Elect of God, Chosen Vessels of Salvation Filled With The Oil of Grace

Summary

The sermon explores the biblical account of the widow of a prophet whose small pot of oil was miraculously multiplied by Elisha to meet her needs, using this as a metaphor for the grace of God filling the elect, who are likened to empty vessels. It explains the nature of this grace as holy, durable, and multifaceted, symbolized by the anointing oil, and discusses how believers are chosen vessels filled with the Spirit to be made fit for God's use. The sermon concludes that grace will continue to be dispensed until all the elect are filled, encouraging trust in God's provision and care, especially for vulnerable groups like widows.
