A Remnant Reserved

Text: Romans 11:1-6. Some might conclude at this point in the Apostle's argument that God is finished with the nation of Israel and that they've been finally cast away so Paul opens this chapter affirming that God is not finished with Israel and he offers 2 proofs in today's text to substantiate his claim. God never rejects His people whom He foreknew. And, although He rebukes His people gently, it is always for the purpose of repentance and holiness of life. Those who are His true people receive His correction; those who are not, don't. The Lord has a remnant in every age that He reserves for His own worship, and that people will endure to the end because of the work of God, not the work of men. Tune in this week and be encouraged as we learn about the greatness of the LORD our God.
