Hiya Wayne GBU yes i see that but keep in mind that natural Israel will have to be bornagain there is no other way for them or the Gentiles to be Saved. Keep in mind that all the DISCIPLES were JEWS but they ALL had to be Bornagain of an Incorruptible SEED no EXCEPTIONS. Thats y there is no more jew or gentile all men carry the STAIN and the SPOT of Adam THUS ALL MEN WILL HAVE TO BE BORNAGAIN
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 fullness of the Gentiles be come in. Gentiles who believe in Jesus Christ are not Israel's replacement! The neighboring countries presumed to usurp the holy land when Israel went into captivity. Instead of mourning they rejoiced!
God provided thru faith the Jews first and the gentiles(he is no respect of persons) a way to eternal life .He has not forgotten the Jews, that well he deal with later. Until all the gentiles come in then all will be saved
Romans is our doctrine for today , we are in the But Now. For those that are looking for doctrine in the time past ,acts, or ages to come, are missing what God is doing today. Romans through Philemon have very different language than the rest of the bible, his writing were given to him from the Risen Lord, its for the Gentile the Body of Christ. Romans 2-16, Marinotha
Eternal truths- 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? For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever.
Romans 11:13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office: God gave Paul an OFFICE. Paul speaks to the Gentiles, hear what he has to say...
Bruce, John 6:44"draw"is a call, high calling of God. Romans 11:29 "For the gifts and calling of God, are without repentance." Apparently God called you with a"tug of the heart", but you cannot go around saying that it would happen to everyone that he calls.If this is what you are saying you are in breach of Ro.11:29, you are implying that one should repent/not saved; if they did not feel a tug.
Those that were grafted in where the little flock not the gentles. Romans 21 sayest For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. verse 22 if thou continue in his goodness. Our salvation is a gift in the grace disposition. Believe in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus for the payment of your sins for and have eternal life. Trust in what Jesus did.
Sentinel God,s gift of salvation is a gift you cannot work to get it.
You become born again you are changed this will produce in you a desire to serve God and do works. Works come as a result of a relationship with God not the other way around.
Jesus death on the cross paid our debt no work we can ever do can equal His sacrifice
Exodus 15:3 "The LORD is a man of war; the LORD is his name" V.18. The LORD shall reign for ever and ever."V.26 (It was true then, it is true now). He is a "man of war." Romans 11:36 "For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things; to whom be glory forever."
Mindy; Romans 11:36 "For of him, through him and to him are all things, to whom be glory for ever." This is not directed at you specifically but most people do not see the magnitude of; "ALL THINGS."
Proverbs 16:1,2,3-4; V1"The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue is from the Lord. V.4"The Lord made all things for himself,yea even the wicked for the day of evil."Here we learn that God causes the spiritual condition of the heart, and what we speak. "day of evil" is the Day of the Lord. Romans 11:36"For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things." Free will;NOT
Child of God - We, the Gentiles, were grafted in. God DOES NOT think like we think. He has provided FULL salvation for us , just as He did for Israel in the O.T. When we are saved we are granted the FULL benefits of that salvation. God is NO respecter of persons, Rom. 2:11; Jas, 2:9; Pro 24:3. No, we are indeed NOT 'step-children'. He wants all to be saved and come to the KNOWLEDGE of the truth.
Sentinel:Read John 6:44:called,if you feel a tug on your Heart ask Forgiveness! You will be Washed, Revelation 1:5 and Baptized with The Holy Ghost, Mark 1:8 / You will be changed 2Corinthians 5:17, You will know, Impossible not too! If Saved. You will tell everyone, just like the ones Jesus Healed. It was WOW, Amazing. I thought everyone would get Saved! Soon found out they didn't want to hear it.
What is this about the remnant, the foreknown, and what does it have to do with us. How do you know then if we are known by God for salvation or damnation. There is still work to be done if you are aware. If I claim salvation based on Paul's teaching, is that it. Sittin' round waiting to die? There's study to find yourself approved. There's the inner life of prayer and inspection. Much todo
Fredscanlan,You ask"where is this love he speaks of?" answer is in His Word. Romans 11:36"For of him, and through him, and to him are all things, to whom be glory forever." ALL THINGS. Ecc.8:5, Ecc.9:3, Luke 6:45, etc.Seek God He is Love!
After he saved me this is one of the 1st verse that he gave me understanding of, Romans 11:36. And Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Amen
Bruce, I live in Christ, I abide in Him. Romans 11:36"For of him and through him and to him are all things" I already said that the date that the Lord saved me is not the most important day of my life. Why do you try to convince me otherwise? I would say the most important day of my life is the day He let's me enter His Kingdom. Those that endure(remain in the faith) to the end will be saved.
Child of God, 1 John 3:1-3, Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called THE SONS OF GOD. Beloved, now are we the sons of God.GBU
"child of God" Statements concerning being step children would make God unfair, he would have to chose who he would give his inheritance to. Romans 2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God. Rev. 21:7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God and he shall be my son. Rewards will be given to every man according to his work Rev 22:12 NO STEP CHILDREN
Child:For ye we have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received The Spirit of adoption whereby we cry Abba,Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with Our Spirit,that we are The Children of God:(17:And if children, then Heirs;Heirs of God and Joint Heirs with Christ if so be that we suffer with Him that we may be also glorified together. Romans 8:15-17 /Full Blessing
My friends, did you know that Jesus (God) gave Apostle Paul secrets (mysteries ). If we read Romans 11:25, Paul tells us that if we don't believe the mysteries of his , that we are blind. We must understand the mystery that God (Jesus ) gave Paul, Colossians 2:2 . To ignore the writings of Paul with be foolish and ignorance. The mystery was kept a secret until Paul got it, share the Mystery. God
A disciple, all of the Bible is and always will be Gods Word. Romans 11:13 Paul state that he is an Apostle for the Gentiles, are you a Gentile? If we took out the books of Romans through Philemon, we would have to follow the Law in order for Salvation. You see, Jesus has chosen Paul for this dispensation of grace. Please read Romans through Philemon and find the truth. God bless you. ....
Jesus is coming soon like a Thief Jesus is a good Shepherd We the Sheep's who followed Jesus can only HEAR HIS VOICE God sent Jesus to us to hear his words so that you and me must have life in Abundance. By God's grace we are saved Our OBEDIENCE TO GOD'S WORDS ARE IMPORTANT THAN SACRIFICE . WE MUST PRAISE AND WORSHIP JESUS UNTIL RAPTURE JESUS WILL COME AGAIN TO TAKE HIS CHURCH AND FOR HIS PEOPLE
Kathie Ellis; "The Fullness of the Gentiles" will be when the last sheep is gathered into the fold, and the door is shut, for this present age. The Father alone knows when that day is; and that will be the day that He tells the Lord Jesus, "Now go down, and finish the age, to completely fill up the vision!" Then, at the Day of the LORD, Jesus will make Himself known in power and glory to Israel.
Romans 2-16, Marinotha
