Romans 9:1-11:36
Premises
Premise
Paul testifies in Christ, with his conscience confirming in the Holy Spirit, that he has great sorrow and unceasing pain for his brothers, his relatives according to the flesh.
Premise
The Israelites possess adoption, glory, covenants, the giving of the law, service, promises, and fathers, and from them is Christ according to the flesh.
Premise
Not all Abraham's offspring are children, but his offspring are accounted as from Isaac.
Premise
The promise says that at the appointed time God will come and Sarah will have a son.
Premise
Before Rebekah's twins were born or had done anything good or bad, it was said that the elder will serve the younger, so that God's purpose according to election might stand, not of works but of him who calls.
Premise
Someone objects that if no one withstands God's will, why does he still find fault?
Premise
Hosea says God will call those who were not his people 'my people' and they will be called children of the living God.
Premise
Isaiah says only a remnant of Israel will be saved, and unless the Lord of Armies had left a seed, Israel would have become like Sodom and Gomorrah.
Premise
Paul prays for Israel's salvation, testifying that they have zeal for God but not according to knowledge, being ignorant of God's righteousness and seeking to establish their own.
Premise
Moses writes that the one who does the law's righteousness will live by them, but the righteousness of faith says the word is near, in the mouth and heart, the word of faith preached.
Premise
Israel did hear, as their sound went into all the earth, and God stretched out his hands all day to a disobedient and contrary people, provoking them to jealousy by a nation without understanding.
Premise
Paul's ministry to the Gentiles aims to provoke his own flesh to jealousy and save some, for if their rejection is the reconciling of the world, their acceptance would be life from the dead.
Conditionals
Conditional
If God, willing to show his wrath and make his power known, endured vessels of wrath prepared for destruction, it was to make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, whom he called not from Jews only but also from Gentiles.
Conditional
If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved, for heart belief leads to righteousness and mouth confession to salvation.
Conditional
If no one is sent to preach, then people cannot hear, believe, or call on the Lord.
Conditional
If the first fruit is holy, so is the lump, and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
Conditional
If you stand by faith after being grafted in as a wild olive, do not be conceited but fear, for if God did not spare the natural branches, he will not spare you unless you continue in his goodness.
Conditional
If the natural branches do not continue in unbelief, they will be grafted in again, for God is able, and it is more natural for them to be grafted into their own olive tree.
Conclusions
Conclusion
The children of the flesh are not children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as heirs.
Conclusion
God's mercy is not of him who wills or runs, but of God who has mercy, as he told Moses he will have mercy on whom he has mercy.
Conclusion
Scripture says God raised Pharaoh up to show his power and proclaim his name in all the earth, so God has mercy on whom he desires and hardens whom he desires.
Conclusion
The formed thing has no right to reply against God, and the potter has right over the clay to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor.
Conclusion
Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness attained righteousness by faith, but Israel pursuing a law of righteousness did not arrive at it.
Conclusion
Israel did not arrive because they sought it by works of the law and not by faith, stumbling over the stumbling stone, and no one who believes in him will be disappointed.
Conclusion
Scripture says whoever believes in him will not be disappointed, and there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Conclusion
God did not reject his people whom he foreknew, and Paul himself is an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham from Benjamin.
Conclusion
As in Elijah's time God reserved seven thousand who had not bowed to Baal, so now there is a remnant according to the election of grace, and if by grace it is no longer of works.
Conclusion
Israel did not obtain what it seeks, but the chosen ones obtained it and the rest were hardened, as Scripture says God gave them a spirit of stupor and David describes their table as a snare.
Conclusion
Israel did not stumble so as to fall, but by their fall salvation came to the Gentiles to provoke them to jealousy, and if their fall is the riches of the world, how much more their fullness?
Conclusion
A partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles comes in, and so all Israel will be saved, as Scripture says the Deliverer will come from Zion and take away their sins.
Conclusion
Concerning the Good News they are enemies for your sake, but concerning election they are beloved for the fathers' sake; God's gifts and calling are irrevocable, and he bound all to disobedience that he might have mercy on all.
Conclusion
God's judgments are unsearchable and his ways past tracing out, for of him, through him, and to him are all things; to him be glory forever.
