Book 45 : ROMANS - Chapter 011

011:001

God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel saying

011:002

Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life

011:003

But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal

011:004

Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace

011:005

And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work

011:006

What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded

011:007

(According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day

011:008

And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them

011:009

Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back alway

011:010

I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy

011:011

Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness

011:012

For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office

011:013

If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them

011:014

For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead

011:015

For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches

011:016

And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree

011:017

Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee

011:018

Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in

011:019

Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear

011:020

For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee

011:021

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

011:022

And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again

011:023

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

011:024

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

011:025

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

011:026

For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins

011:027

As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the father's sakes

011:028

For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance

011:029

For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief

011:030

Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy

011:031

For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all

011:032

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

011:033

For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor

011:034

Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again

011:035

For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen
