Romans 9:18-23 (MSG):
18. All we’re saying is that God has the first word, initiating the action in which we play our part for good or ill.
19. Are you going to object, “So how can God blame us for anything since he’s in charge of everything? If the big decisions are already made, what say do we have in it?”
20. Who in the world do you think you are to second-guess God? Do you for one moment suppose any of us knows enough to call God into question? Clay doesn’t talk back to the fingers that mold it, saying, “Why did you shape me like this?”
21. Isn’t it obvious that a potter has a perfect right to shape one lump of clay into a vase for holding flowers and another into a pot for cooking beans?
22. If God needs one style of pottery especially designed to show his angry displeasure
23. and another style carefully crafted to show his glorious goodness, isn’t that all right?
