web Romans:9:30-10:21

web@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn't follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;

web@Romans:9:31 @ but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, didn't arrive at the law of righteousness.

web@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they didn't seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone;

web@Romans:9:33 @ even as it is written, "Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and a rock of offense; and no one who believes in him will be disappointed." {Isaiah strkjv@8:14; strkjv@28:16}

web@Romans:10:1 @ Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved.

web@Romans:10:2 @ For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.

web@Romans:10:3 @ For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn't subject themselves to the righteousness of God.

web@Romans:10:4 @ For Christ is the fulfillment {or, completion, or end} of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

web@Romans:10:5 @ For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, "The one who does them will live by them." {Leviticus strkjv@18:5}

web@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness which is of faith says this, "Don't say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?' {Deuteronomy strkjv@30:12} (that is, to bring Christ down);

web@Romans:10:7 @ or, 'Who will descend into the abyss?' {Deuteronomy strkjv@30:13} (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)"

web@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart"; {Deuteronomy strkjv@30:14} that is, the word of faith, which we preach:

web@Romans:10:9 @ that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

web@Romans:10:10 @ For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

web@Romans:10:11 @ For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed." {Isaiah strkjv@28:16}

web@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him.

web@Romans:10:13 @ For, "Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved." {Joel strkjv@2:32}

web@Romans:10:14 @ How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher?

web@Romans:10:15 @ And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!" {Isaiah strkjv@52:7}

web@Romans:10:16 @ But they didn't all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our report?" {Isaiah strkjv@53:1}

web@Romans:10:17 @ So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

web@Romans:10:18 @ But I say, didn't they hear? Yes, most certainly, "Their sound went out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world." {Psalm strkjv@19:4}

web@Romans:10:19 @ But I ask, didn't Israel know? First Moses says, "I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, with a nation void of understanding I will make you angry." {Deuteronomy strkjv@32:31}

web@Romans:10:20 @ Isaiah is very bold, and says, "I was found by those who didn't seek me. I was revealed to those who didn't ask for me." {Isaiah strkjv@65:1}

web@Romans:10:21 @ But as to Israel he says, "All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people." {Isaiah strkjv@65:2}
