The Book of Romans, Part 75: Loving Jacob, Hating Esau II (Rom. 9:9-13)

Summary

Pastor Chris McCoo expounds on Romans 9:9-13, explaining that God's statement of loving Jacob and hating Esau reflects a divine, moral hatred rather than an emotional one. This hatred is directed at the wicked and is perfectly just, contrasting with God's sovereign love for His elect, grounded in Christ's righteousness. The sermon emphasizes that God's love and hatred are rooted in His holiness and justice, highlighting the doctrine of election and the grace extended to believers through Christ's sacrifice.
