What does the Bible say about election in Romans 9?

Answered in 2 sources

Romans 9 emphasizes God's sovereign choice in election and reprobation, stating that He will have mercy on whom He wills.

Romans 9 presents a clear understanding of election, highlighting that not all who are of Israel are the true children of God. Paul illustrates this by referencing Isaac and Jacob, confirming that God's purpose operates outside human merit or effort ('not of works, but of him that calleth'). This chapter reassures believers that God's elect shall be saved according to His divine decree, reflecting His righteousness and mercy.
