Fear get away from me
Doubt has no place in me
Seduction of death will go
Intermittent thoughts of past life

I do not know that man
Anymore
Nevermore

Weight has lifted
Is broken
That yoke destroyed
I’ve nothing more to do with it

Peace deep within
I’m set free

I have become something else
My spirit breathes freely again
That yoke destroyed
I’ve nothing more to do with it

No longer tormented
No longer

–Living Sacrifice, “No Longer”–

¹¹ Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad—in order that God’s purpose in election might stand: ¹² not by works but by him who calls—she was told, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³ Just as it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

¹⁴ What then shall we say? Is God unjust? Not at all! ¹⁵ For he says to Moses,

“I will have mercy on whom I have mercy,
    and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”

¹⁶ It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy. ¹⁷ For Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.” ¹⁸ Therefore God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens whom he wants to harden. ¹⁹ One of you will say to me: “Then why does God still blame us? For who is able to resist his will?” ²⁰ But who are you, a human being, to talk back to God? “Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, ‘Why did you make me like this?’”
–ROMANS 9:11-20 (NIV)–

You stiff-necked people! 
Your hearts and ears are still uncircumcised.
You are just like your ancestors:
You always resist the Holy Spirit!
–ACTS 7:51 (NIV)–

If serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.
–JOSHUA 24:15 (NIV)–

God does not show favoritism.
–ROMANS 2:11 (NIV)–
