Let Grace be Grace - Audio
from Calvary Prineville · host Chris Cross
Some people believe that the destruction of the Temple in AD 70 marked the end of Israel as God’s chosen people. Not so. God has not cast away His people but promised a covenant with them forever. Paul’s conversion was a sign that God had not abandoned Israel and today’s Messianic Jews are a living demonstration of His covenant. These Jews are God’s remnant, based upon nothing more than divine grace. It is a free gift from God. Salvation isn’t a contract but a covenant. Having a remnant suggests the majority of Israel is not saved but blinded. Hardened. The majority, the whole, has failed, but the elect have obtained it. Israel’s belief that they’re the chosen people and are secure in this is their downfall. Are we in that condition? Are our hearts hardened? Do we have sensitivity to the things of the Lord? Is our faith built on anything but faith in Jesus alone?
