Proverbs 21:29 (a) This person shows in his face that he is an enemy of GOD. His countenance is fierce, angry and hateful.

Proverbs 28:14 (a) The man who refuses GOD's Word, and rejects His commandments is warned by the Lord. GOD is telling him he will be punished for his rebellion. (See Proverbs 29:1).

Romans 9:18 (a) The truth of this passage is denied by many. We should note, however, that wax in the sun gets soft and clay in the sun gets hard. We should note, also, that the rain falls on one piece of ground and weeds grow. The same kind of rain falls on another piece of ground, and flowers grow, and also grain and vegetables. Men harden their hearts, they turn against GOD, they refuse GOD's leadership and His right to rule over them. After these tendencies are revealed in the soul and life, then GOD takes these men at their word and seals their decisions upon themselves. Pharaoh had lived many years as a rebel idolator before we read that GOD had hardened his heart. Jacob and Esau had lived their lives, and2000 years had passed by before GOD said, "Jacob have I loved, and Esau have I hated." GOD is not unjust, nor unrighteous. He is always kind to those who seek for Him.
