Romans 11 - Israel & Jesus Messiah

In spite of what is perceived by history and the Jews' rejection of Jesus as their Messiah, God has always had a remnant of Jewish Believers, starting with Abraham. These Jews who are recognized as True Israel will be manifest when Christ Returns and also martyrs in the Tribulation. God’s grace alone gives us ears that can hear and eyes that can see and understand that we might turn from our sin and follow Jesus Our Savior. Our hearts must be softened so that we might truly know Jesus and live lives that reflect His mercy and grace in our daily lives. This is the focus of chapter 11 of Romans; it’s an amazing plan God has established for His Remnant, made up of both Jews and Gentiles. Are you grafted in the branch that bears the fruit of repentance that Glorifies God? Or are we dead, spiritually lifeless branches that are to be cut off and burned in the fire of judgment?
