Romans 11

[bonita]

Romans 11

1. I ask then; Did God reject his people? By no means! I am an Isralite myself, a descendant of  Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.
2. God did not reject his people, whom he foreknew. Don't you know what the Scripture says in the passage about Elijah- how he appealed to God against Israel.
3. "Lord they have killed your prophets and torn down your altars; I  killed your prophets and torn down your altars; I am the only one left, and they are trying to kill me"?
4. And what was God's answer to him?"I have reserbed for myself seven thousand by grace.
5. So too at the present time there is a remnant chosen byg race.
6. And if by grace, then of os no longer by works; if it were grace would no longer be grace.
7. What then? What Israel sought so earnestly it did not dbtain, but the elect did. The others were handened.
8. as it is written;"God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes so that they could not see and ears so that they could not see and ears so that they could not hear to this very day."
9. And David says: "May their table become a snare and a trap, a stumbing block and a retribution for tjhem.
10. May theiur eues be darknened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever."
11. Again I ask; Did they stubble so as to fall beyond recovery? Not at all! Rather, because of their transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make Israel envious,
12. But if their transgression means riches for the world, and their loss means riches for the Gentiles, how much greater riches will their fullness bring!
13. I am talking to you Gentiles, Inasmuch as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I make much of my ministry
14. in the hope that I may somehow arouse my own people to envy and save some of them.
15. For if their rejestionis the reconcilation of the world, what will their acceptance he but life from the dead?
16. If the part of the dough offered as firstfruits is holy. then the whole batch is holy; if the root is holy, so are the branches
17. If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root.
18. do not boast over those branches. If you di, consider this; You do not support the root, but the root supports you.
19. You will say then,"Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in."
20. Granted , But they were broken off because of unbelief, and you stand by faith, Do not be arrogant, but be afraid.
21. For if God did not Spare the natural branches, he will not spare you either.
22.  Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God; sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in his kindness, Otherwise, yoi also will be cut off.
23. And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again
24. After all, if you were cut out of an olive tree that is wild by nature , and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how muc more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!
25. I do  who has been his counselor>:not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not beconceited; Israel has experienced a hardening in poart until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.
26. And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written "The delivere will come from Zion. he will turn godlessness away from Jacob; he will turn godlessness from Jacob.
27. And this is my convenant with them when I take away their sins."
28. As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies on your account , but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the petriachs,
29. For God;s gifts and his call afe irrevocable.
30. Just as you who were ar one time disobedien to God have now received mercy as a resuilt of their disobedience
31. so they too have now become disobediem in order that they too may now receive mercy as a result of God;s mercy to you,
32. For God has bound all men over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all
33. Oh, the depth of te riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgements and his paths  beyound tracing out!
34. "Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or.who has been his counselor?"
35. "Who has ever given to God. that God should repay him?"
36. For from him and through him and to him are all things, To hnim be the glory forever! A men.

Romans 12

1. Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God- this is your spiritual act of worship.
2. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of the world, but be trasformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is- his good, pleasing and perfect will.
3. For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgement, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.
4. Just as each of us has one body with many members and these members do not all have the same funccction.
5. so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.
6. We have different figts, according to the grace given us, If a man's gift is prophesying let him use it in proportion to his faith.
7. If it is serving let him serve if it is teaching ,let him teach;
8. if is encouraging, let him encourge if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously, if it is showing mercy. let him do it cheerfully.
9. Love must be sincere, Hate what is evilcling to what is good.
10. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves.
11. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fevor,s erving  the Lord,
12. Be joyful in hope patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
13. Share with God's people whoa re in need , Practice hospitality,
14. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse,
15. Rejoice with those who rejoice, morn with those who mourn.
16. Live in harmony with one another, Do not be proud, but be willing to assocoate with people of low position, Do not be conceited.
17. Do not repay anyone evil for evil . Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody,
18. If it is possibkle, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
19.  Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath , for it is written;"It is mine to avenge, I will repay; says the Lord.
20. On the contrary,"If your enemy is hungry, feed him! if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head."
21. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome by evil, butr overcome evil with good.
