Romans:11:22-36
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God :
on them which fell ,
severity ;
but toward thee ,
goodness ,
if thou continue in his goodness :
otherwise thou also shalt be cut off .
*
And they also ,
if they abide not still in unbelief ,
shall be graffed in :
for God is able to graff them in again .
*
For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature ,
and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree :
how much more shall these ,
which be the natural branches ,
be graffed into their own olive tree ?
*
For I would not ,
brethren ,
that ye should be ignorant of this mystery ,
lest ye should be wise in your own conceits ;
that blindness in part is happened to Israel ,
until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in .
*
And so all Israel shall be saved :
as it is written ,
There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer ,
and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob :
*
For this is my covenant unto them ,
when I shall take away their sins .
*
As concerning the gospel ,
they are enemies for your sakes :
but as touching the election ,
they are beloved for the fathers '
sakes .
*
For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance .
*
For as ye in times past have not believed God ,
yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief :
*
Even so have these also now not believed ,
that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy .
*
For God hath concluded them all in unbelief ,
that he might have mercy upon all .
*
O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God !
how unsearchable are his judgments ,
and his ways past finding out !
*
For who hath known the mind of the Lord ?
or who hath been his counsellor ?
*
Or who hath first given to him ,
and it shall be recompensed unto him again ?
*
For of him ,
and through him ,
and to him ,
are all things :
to whom be glory for ever .
Amen .
