How Does Romans 8:30 Fit With John 3:16?

Summary

The sermon explores how Romans 8:30 aligns with John 3:16, emphasizing that salvation is by predestination rather than invitation. It argues that being born again precedes belief, with faith as a fruit of the Spirit, not the cause of salvation. The preacher explains that God's elect are given to Jesus before the foundation of the world, and all whom God predestines are called, justified, and glorified, ensuring eternal security. John 3:16 is presented not as an invitation but as assurance of salvation for those already born again and given eternal life by God.
