The book of Romans Ch. 11 with J. Vernon McGee. The Future history of Israel. I cut my teeth as a babe in Christ with Thru The Bible Radio. Dr. McGee takes us into the heart of faith! Works vs. Faith. Todays world religions & cults are ALL WORKS driven. What a blessing we have in Christ Jesus!

ROMANS 11: OUR ATTITUDE TOWARD THE JEWS

v. 1-4 God hasn’t cast off Israel. He defended them when Isaiah complained to Him.

v. 5 God has a remnant among the Jews today who believe in Jesus as their Messiah.

v. 6 We’re accepted by God either by our works or by grace; it cannot be both.

Romans Ch. 11 Bible Study The Future of Israel

v. 7-8 God has blinded those who reject His grace.

v. 11 Through the cutting off of the Jews, an opening was made for the Gentiles.

v. 12 When God restores the Jews to His favor, the Kingdom Age will begin.

v. 17 The Gentiles are the wild olive tree grafted into the good olive tree of the Jews, with the blessings of the covenant and the promises.

v. 20-21 God grafted us by our faith in Christ. The Jews were cut off because of their unbelief, not merely to make room for us.

v. 25 The “fullness of the Gentiles” indicates that there are a number of Gentiles who will be saved, after which God will turn back to Israel, drawing His people unto Himself.

v. 28 God calls the Jews His “elect” (Matthew 24).

v. 32 The Jews are now in unbelief of God, so that He can extend His mercy to them.

v. 33 God doesn’t ask us to reconcile the various truths about His relations with man. He only wants us to believe, trusting Him with simple faith.

v. 36 Everything is centered around God.
