web - Romans:11:1-10

web@Romans:11:1 @ I ask then, did God reject his people? May it never be! For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

web@Romans:11:2 @ God didn't reject his people, which he foreknew. Or don't you know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:

web@Romans:11:3 @ "Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have broken down your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life." {1 Kings strkjv@19:10,14}

web@Romans:11:4 @ But how does God answer him? "I have reserved for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal." {1 Kings strkjv@19:18}

web@Romans:11:5 @ Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

web@Romans:11:6 @ And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.

web@Romans:11:7 @ What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he didn't obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.

web@Romans:11:8 @ According as it is written, "God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day." {Deuteronomy strkjv@29:4; Isaiah strkjv@29:10}

web@Romans:11:9 @ David says, "Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, a stumbling block, and a retribution to them.

web@Romans:11:10 @ Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see. Bow down their back always." {Psalm strkjv@69:22,23}
