Romans 11:1-6 (Weymouth New Testament)
View In My Bible
1
I ask then, Has God cast off His People? No, indeed. Why, I myself am an Israelite, of the posterity of Abraham and of the tribe of Benjamin.
2
God has not cast off His People whom He knew beforehand. Or are you ignorant of what Scripture says in speaking of Elijah--how he pleaded with God against Israel, saying,
3
"Lord, they have put Thy Prophets to death, and have overthrown Thy altars; and, now that I alone remain, they are thirsting for my blood"?
4
But what did God say to him in reply? "I have reserved for Myself 7,000 men who have never bent the knee to Baal."
5
In the same way also at the present time there has come to be a remnant whom God in His grace has selected.
6
But if it is in His grace that He has selected them, then His choice is no longer determined by human actions. Otherwise grace would be grace no longer.
