    Paul wants his readers to see one another the way God sees them. There is no room for arrogance on either side! Ours is to simply respond to who God is and let Him change us into who He wants us to be. That is what honors Him! It’s all about Him, not me!

    Life from the Dead! Romans 11:13-24 Intro: One of the main reasons Paul is writing to the church or ekklesia at Rome (the called out ones who are assembled together for a specific purpose) is to help them resolve some of the tension between the Jews and Gentiles.
