Deuteronomy 13 presents a rigorous theological framework for confronting idolatry in all its forms, emphasizing that God's exclusive claim on worship demands absolute loyalty.

In this message we move from the grand assurance of Romans 8 into the hard but glorious truths of Romans 9. Paul raises the question: Hath God cast away His people, the Jews? He shows us through Scripture that not all Israel is Israel, that God has always made distinctions — between Ishmael and Isaac, between Esau and Jacob — according to His purpose and election. We see the sovereignty of God in...
