Romans 11:22-36

In Conclusion

All Israel will be saved. What does that mean? I hope it means that every Jews who ever lived will be saved. It at the very least means that a portion of Israel will be saved. They have not fallen away forever. In fact, bringing them back to salvation is apparently an easier thing than bringing the Gentiles to salvation was in the first place.

The Gentiles were outside of salvation. We were disobedient to God. But God showed us mercy by sending His Son to die for us so that through faith in Him we could be saved. Now the Jews have become disobedient because they refused Messiah and the Gospel. Ah, but God has already sent His Son to die for them as well. He doesn’t have to do that again. Furthermore, He will show them mercy by causing them to turn and receive salvation through the Gospel.

Are you confused? Don’t be. These are some of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God. His judgements are unsearchable. Just know this: He is all wise, He is good, He does what is right and what is best, and He love us all. Then let Him take it from there.
