Hey, this is Beth. What we live for at Living Proof is to serve people the word of God. We base our ministry on Hebrews 412 that tells us that the word is alive and active.

We pray this message is going to serve you in some way today and that God is going to speak through it.

Thank you so much for giving us this privilege.

I'm going to go all the way through it from the top right now and then we're going to stop,

slow down and get back to the point that we're on, number three.

Let me read first of all so that we can start with some kind of context.

I want to start at 28, even though our verses are 29 and 30. In many of your Bibles you will see

that it's coupled into a paragraph to continue the thought and to give it some

context so I'll start there and we know everybody say we know that in all things, everybody say all things, God works. He

actually works, expends energy and works for the good of those who love him who have been called

according to his purpose. For those God for knew he also predestined that is a hot

word in our study of Romans, to be conformed to the

likeness of his son that he might be the firstborn among many brothers,

verse 30 and those he predestined he also called those he called he also justified

those he justified glory to God he also glorified

those five verbs have been called by theologians and I'm talking about

which ones I'm talking about four new pre-descent call justified,

called by theologians through the ages at what somebody tell me a golden chain. I also gave you a quote by Linsky that I

absolutely loved. I'll try not to reteach all of this but I do want you to have it

in in context where he says this.

Romans 8, 29 and 30 is an example of how mighty doctrines are incidentally introduced.

Incidentally introduced.
