About this listen

Romans 9:1-8

Though a Jew himself, Paul was heartbroken that so many of his Israelite brethren had not accepted Jesus as the Messiah despite all the privileges and promises that God had given them. In our text this morning, Paul builds a case that God's promises have not failed, but rather given to all those who respond to Christ in faith, no matter their nationality.

Coming from a place of privilege? The Jews certainly were. God had provided them with all the blessings He could promise. They received God's adoption as sons, His divine glory, the covenants, the law, all promises, temple worship, the patriarchs, and the Messiah and yet their abuse of these privileges caused them to be proud and unaware of their role in sharing the promises to the world. Even though their rejections, God worked His sovereign plan to bring about the fulfillment of these promises to all, those Jews who accepted Christ along with the Gentiles who were grafted into the promises through their belief in Christ.
