The Chain of Salvation

 (ID: 2768)

The Bible tells us that God works “in all things” to accomplish His purposes. In this sermon, Alistair Begg reminds us to keep the context of this promise in mind: God’s purpose is to call to Himself a people, and “all things” may include suffering and hardship. Salvation, meanwhile, isn’t a matter of our own efforts or knowledge. Instead, it results from a chain of actions God has done—actions initiated by His love and grace.

28And we know that for those who love God all things work together hfor good,8 for ithose who are called according to his purpose. 29For those whom he jforeknew he also kpredestined lto be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be mthe firstborn among many brothers. 30And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also njustified, and those whom he justified he also oglorified.
