"All Israel Shall Be Saved": Part 6: The Fullness of Israel (Rom. 11:1-15)

In Part 6: If Romans 9 illustrates the sovereignty of God over individuals and nations, and Romans 10 explains how Israel's hardness of heart and unbelief caused them to reject the message and their Messiah, the next logical question is: has God fully and finally REJECTED His people Israel to focus on the Gentiles, as some claim?

Absolutely not! In Romans 11, the Apostle Paul sets out to show from the Scriptures how this was God's plan from the beginning to save a "remnant" of Israel, yet at the same time "all Israel shall be saved" because man's unbelief cannot stop the power and promises of Almighty God!
Romans 11 is one of the most important chapters in the New Testament to understanding God's unfolding plan of salvation for both Jew and Gentile. This is foundational stuff! How we understand the sovereignty and purposes of God will affect how we understand the issue of Israel at the end of the age.

Maranatha!
