Romans:10
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Brothers ,
truly my heart '
s desire and prayer to God for Israel is for [
it ]
to be saved .
*
For I bear record to them that they have a zeal of God ,
but not according to knowledge .
*
For they ,
being ignorant of God '
s righteousness and going about to establish their own righteousness ,
have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God .
*
For Christ [
is ]
the end of the law for righteousness for everyone who believes .
*
For Moses writes [
of ]
the righteousness [
which ]
is of the Law ,
The man who does those things shall live by them .
*
But the righteousness of faith says this :
Do not say in your heart ,
Who shall ascend into Heaven ?
that is ,
to bring Christ down ;
*
or Who shall descend into the deep ?;
that is ,
to bring up Christ again from [
the ]
dead .
*
But what does it say ?
The word is near you , [
even ]
in your mouth and in your heart ;
that is ,
the word of faith which we proclaim ;
*
Because if you confess the Lord Jesus ,
and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from [
the ]
dead ,
you shall be saved .
*
For with [
the ]
heart [
one ]
believes unto righteousness ,
and with [
the ]
mouth [
one ]
confesses unto salvation .
*
For the Scripture says ,
Everyone believing on Him shall not be put to shame .
*
For there is no difference both of Jew and of Greek ,
for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call on Him .
*
For everyone ,
whoever shall call on the name of [
the ]
Lord will be saved .
*
How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed ?
And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard ?
And how shall they hear without preaching ?
*
And how shall they preach unless they are sent ?
As it is written ,
How beautiful [
are ]
the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace and bring glad tidings of good things !
*
But [
they have ]
not all obeyed the gospel .
For Isaiah says ,
Lord ,
who has believed our report ?
*
Then faith [
is ]
of hearing ,
and hearing by the Word of God .
*
But I say ,
Have they not heard ?
Yes indeed ,
their voice went out into all the earth ,
and their words to the end of the world .
*
But I say ,
Did not Israel know ?
First Moses says ,
I will provoke you to jealousy by [
those who are ]
no people ,
and by a foolish nation I will anger you .
*
But Isaiah [
is ]
very bold and says ,
I was found by those who did not seek Me ,
I became known to those who did not ask after Me .
*
But to Israel He says ,
All day long I have stretched forth My hands to a disobeying and gainsaying people .
