Consigned All To Disobedience


Romans 11:32-33 (ESV Strong's)

32 For God has consigned all to disobedience, that he may have mercy on all.

33 Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways!

Why did God place the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden? For mercy’s sake. Verse 33 tells us that His judgments and ways are beyond our understanding, but consider this. Disobedience brings the need for God’s mercy for mankind to be forgiven. Mercy is a choice of the one asking and for the other to grant. Both choose each other in the seeking and giving. The door to that bridge over troubled waters is the cross of Christ. It is open to all who would come.
