Colin Cook dives into the complexities of Romans 9-11 in this episode of 'How it Happens'. With a focus on Israel's salvation, Colin unpacks Paul's heartfelt concern for his fellow Israelites. Paul, deeply troubled by Israel's current state, wonders why they haven't embraced salvation despite God's promises. He passionately expresses his sorrow and wish to sacrifice himself if it would save his brethren.
This episode explores the concept of literal versus spiritual Israel, emphasising that God's promises extend to those with faith, not just the literal descendants of Abraham. Colin stresses the importance of understanding Scripture as a whole, cautioning against cherry-picking verses to support personal opinions. He illustrates this with Paul's logical argument that literal Israel will ultimately become spiritual Israel, highlighting the need to study Romans 9, 10, and 11 together.
Colin's insights encourage listeners to submit to God's Word and recognise its authority over personal interpretations. This episode is a deep dive into faith, grace, and the transformative power of God's promises. If you're seeking a thoughtful exploration of Scripture with practical applications for overcoming addiction through faith, this episode is a must-listen.
