    Romans 9:30-33

    Romans 9:30-33 Romans 9:30-33 What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith; 31but Israel, who pursued a law of righteousness, has not attained it. 32Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but as if it were ...read more

    The Choice Of Gentiles In The Scriptural Prophesies Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Dec 30, 2019
     | 2,334 views

    Paul finishes his argument that Israel’s unbelief is not inconsistent with God’s plan of redemption by using the Old Testament to show that her unbelief reflects exactly what the prophets recorded and that it is consistent with God’s prerequisite of faith.

    (33) The Choice of Gentiles in the Scriptural Prophesies Romans 9:25-33 25 As He says also in Hosea: “I will call them My people, who were not My people, And her beloved, who was not beloved.” 26 “And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ There ...read more

    The Wrath & Righteousness Of God Revealed

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Dec 8, 2002
    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,325 views

    Our study through the book of Romans 1 shows us a God who loves humans, but must reveal His wrath on anything that is not like Him. It is one of the best chapters in the Bible to clearly understand God’s righteous character, and our fallibility.

    Why is there evil in the world? How can a loving God condemn anyone to hell? Does God condemn me when I do wrong? How can I be a Christian and yet still sin? How do law and faith work together? Where do I find help and hope? What happens to the Jews after they rejected Jesus? How am I supposed to ...read more

    Our relationship with God is a relationship that finds its beginning and its end totally in HIM. Our verses today, Romans 1:16 & 17, explain in very simple terms how we need to let God maintain our relationship with Him, and with others as well.

    Title: Righteousness, the Revelation of God in Me Scripture: Romans 1:16-17 16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a ...read more

    Dramatic monologue as if it were from Micah himself, summarizing the entire book around the contrast between practicing ritual in order to avoid judgment vs. living God’s requirements of justice, mercy, and the humble walk.

    [Outside the sanctuary] Justice, O God! Justice! We must have your justice! And righteousness! Without that we are lost! Oh, Lord God, the Temple and the city – what I see there sickens me. That ripe and rotten ritual, those empty gestures, those paid and padded priests! O God, ...read more
