How do we know that God is the one who makes us differ?
Answered in 1 source
We know this because Scripture explicitly states that God distinguishes us according to His purpose, as shown in Romans 9:15-16.
The distinction made by God among individuals is a theme prevalent in Scripture, illustrated in Romans 9:15-16, where God explicitly states that He has mercy on whom He wills. This notion of divine distinction is foundational to understanding sovereign grace. Throughout the Bible, God’s sovereignty is depicted as paramount, shaping not just the environment of our existence but the very fabric of our beings. By recognizing that God is the one who makes us differ, believers are called to humility, acknowledging that apart from God's mercy, none of us would be distinguished from others, leaving little room for pride in our own achievements.
