John 12:37-50 The Pain of Unbelief
Does God harden your heart, or does your unbelief harden your heart? This appears to be the question of the ages, and one that is a bit of a paradox, since they both appear true in scripture. Our choices bear responsibility and have grim consequences, but God in His sovereignty uses our choices to accomplish His will. Our will/choices are proximate, while God’s remains ultimate. God does not violate our will, but He is in complete control of the results. This may be the grand mystery of how this all works, but it is the heart of a loving God to save, which He has done to His glory through His Son Jesus Christ.

John 3:1-21 New Beginnings or Transformed Lives?
The most famous of all verses may be the most screwed up. It’s sort of the crown to a conversation that Jesus has had with Nicodemus, teaching him that salvation comes from above. We so often use this verse to talk about us choosing God, whereas this context is clear that it is a lot more about God choosing us, and cleansing us.
