Romans 9:14-30 - God Hardens Hearts?
Im confused about these verses, it says that God hardens peoples heart and has mercy on people... why would God harden someosn heart? this sounds to me like God makes someone then in essence do evil, He makes it so that person cannot turn to God and continues to sin and do evil... which doesnt make...

i dont truely believe there is a way to console someone from this... you can be there for them and try to show your love, but it is such a painful thing, nothing can help but faith in God really... and often times when such things happen that is the first thing to go, or it is severely attacked.......

This was not meant to be addressed to all women, th...
