Paul's Response

Summary

The sermon explores Paul's response in Romans 10:16, addressing various theological views on salvation, including salvation by works, faith alone, and lordship salvation. It critiques these views for imposing human conditions on salvation and emphasizes God's sovereign perseverance in preserving the elect. The message highlights the distinction between sincere faith and outward obedience, affirming that not all who believe perfectly obey the Gospel, yet salvation assurance rests in God's faithfulness, not human effort. Ultimately, it upholds the internal testimony of faith as the true assurance of salvation over external works or legalistic measures.
