Romans 11:21

21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, perhaps he will not spare you.

Romans 11:21 In-Context

19 You will say, "Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in."
20 That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand only through faith. So do not become proud, but stand in awe.
21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, perhaps he will not spare you.
22 Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness toward you, provided you continue in his kindness; otherwise you also will be cut off.
23 And even those of Israel, if they do not persist in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God has the power to graft them in again.
