Called, Not Self-Made
Summary
The sermon explores the concept of divine grace, emphasizing that humans have no inherent rights before God and that all condemnation is just while salvation is purely gracious. Drawing primarily from Romans and Paul's personal testimony, the speaker argues that salvation is an undeserved rescue initiated entirely by God's action, not human effort. The core practical takeaway is that understanding grace begins with recognizing that we deserve nothing from God, and that God's sovereign call and redemption are entirely based on His mercy, not our merit.
