Romans 9:19-21
New Matthew Bible
19 You will say to me then, So why does he still blame us? For who can resist his will? 20 But, O man, what are you to dispute with God? Shall the work say to the workman, Why have you made me this way? 21 Does the potter not have power over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
