What Does it Mean that God Hardened Pharaoh’s Heart?

Episode 981 Show Notes 

From the Show

The Apostle Paul anticipates our questions. Is there injustice on God’s part? “By no means,” Paul says. God raised up Pharaoh for his own purposes and his purposes are never cruel or unfair.

What Does it Mean that God Hardened Pharaoh’s Heart?

Questions in this Episode

  1. In John 1, John said, “behold the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.” I know election is true, but this seems to be describing the whole world, as in everyone in the world. What do you think?
  2.  How does God discipline us when we sin?
  3. I am wrestling with the verse that says the Lord “hardened Pharaoh’s heart.” This seems to contradict free will. What do you think?
  4. What does Revelation 12:13-17 mean?
  5. Did David lose the Holy SPirit in Psalm 51? Can we lose the Holy Spirit?
