Sovereign Grace in the Midst of Brokenness Dr. Stephen Conley

Texts: Genesis 27:1-46; Galatians 3:13-14 Brokenness Displayed in Disregarding God (Gen. 27:1-4) Despite knowing God's plan to bless his younger son Jacob, Isaac disregards God's Word to give the blessing to Esau. Isaac was motivated by his heart's desire instead of obeying God's Word. We must beware of living according to our desires for the things of earth. Brokenness Displayed in Deceiving Others (Gen. 27:5-29) Through her deception, Rebekah sought to deceive Isaac into giving the blessing to Jacob. Through his deception, Jacob repeatedly lies to his father to receive the blessing. We must beware of the following the path of deception to get what we want. Brokenness Displayed in Devastating Consequences (Gen. 27:30-46) Esau does not receive the blessing and vows to kill his brother out of revenge. God's covenant family has been fractured by lies and deception. We must beware of the consequences of sin – it promises gain, but leads to ruin. Grace Displayed in the Death of Christ (Gal. 3:13-14) Christ's death made it possible for us to be redeemed from the curse of the law. Christ became a curse for us so that the blessing of God's covenant could be ours in faith. Our salvation rests upon God's grace, not in our ability.
