YOU DID NOT CHOOSE TO BE SAVED : SPIRITUAL CORPSES AND A NEW HEART

In today’s sermon, we return to the piercing, God-exalting preaching of *Jonathan Edwards* to confront one of the most pervasive errors of modern Christianity: the heresy of **human autonomy in salvation**. Edwards reminds us that the Gospel was never intended to soothe us in our spiritual deadness or affirm our self-confidence. It came to **raise the dead**, overthrow the tyranny of the fallen will, and magnify the sovereign grace of God. True Christianity is not moral improvement—it is **divine resurrection**. Through Scripture and Edwards’s theological precision, this message exposes the bondage of the human will and proclaims the only hope for sinners: **God’s unilateral work of regeneration**. Salvation does not originate in man’s decision, effort, or desire, but in the merciful purpose of God alone. This sermon is a call away from shallow faith and toward a Gospel that humbles the sinner, exalts Christ, and produces genuine transformation. 🔥 *Subscribe* for sermons that recover the pure Gospel and confront false confidence. 🔔 *Turn on notifications* so you don’t miss the next message. 📖 *Key Scripture Texts:* • *Ephesians 2:1–5* — Humanity’s true condition: spiritually dead, made alive only by sovereign grace • *Ezekiel 36:26* — God does not repair the old heart; He replaces it with a new one • *John 6:44* — No one comes to Christ unless the Father draws him Romans 9:16* — Salvation depends not on human will or effort, but on God who shows mercy 📚 *Sermon Source & Theological Foundation:* This message is inspired by the sermons and writings of *Jonathan Edwards**, particularly his teaching on the **bondage of the will* and the absolute necessity of sovereign grace in regeneration. Edwards dismantles the myth of human “free will” in fallen man, demonstrating that the will is enslaved to sin and utterly incapable of choosing God apart from a divine act of new creation.
