Romans 11:1-15 | Pastor Ed
Paul asks if God has rejected Israel; answer: certainly not. Like in Elijah’s day, God has kept a remnant—today there are Jewish believers chosen by grace, not works—while many are presently hardened, and Gentile salvation is meant to stir Israel to jealousy. Drawing on Romans 11 and Psalm 94:14, he says God has not cast off Israel but preserves a Jewish remnant and plan—Gentile salvation is to provoke Israel to jealousy, not replace them. Through these scriptures we learn that God keeps His promises, salvation is by grace, God loves the Jewish people, and He pursues our hearts—so respond to Him.
