*GOD’S ATTITUDE TOWARD ISRAEL.*
* *
*1-20-08---SPM*
*ROMANS 9-11*
*TBC*

*INTRO: *I hope that you have been blessed by this quick tour of Romans.
We have tonight and next week left.
It is difficult to study, preach, and teach on large sections of scriptures, however, it is also a blessing to cover this fertile ground this fast.
We can get a favor of what it was like for the Romans as they heard the letter read.
There is a flow to reading large sections.
Verse by Verse preaching is a good for our hearts, but at times we can get bogged down, and not catch the rhythm of Paul’s writing.
Tonight, we come to some difficult chapters in Paul’s epistle.
There have been more debates on the various theological stances presented in these chapters, than we can probably record.
My aim tonight is not to try to answer all your questions, or to present every single argument.
I want to give you a broad outline of Romans 9-11 so that you can grasp the point of Paul’s argument for us.
I am not going to waste a lot of time giving a defense of my position simply because it would take to long.
I am just going to preach what I think these chapters mean.
The theme of Romans 9-11 is to give a record of Israel’s spiritual history.
Just keep that in mind, and that will help you grasped much of what Paul is talking about.
The major story line here is Israel.
Chapter 9 will focus on the past.
Chapter 10 will focus on the present.
Chapter 11 will focus on the future.
Paul is going to show how God could set aside His chosen people and save the Gentiles and how He will restore the nation at some future date.
\\ Friends, if you keep that in mind---you will have a good understanding of what Paul’s is writing about.
*-I.
ISRAEL’S PAST.
(9)*
* *
* *-A.
Chapter 9 can be divided into two major headings.
-1.
Israel’s Election Manifested.
(9:1-13)
-2.
Israel’s Election Defended.
(9:14-33)
-B.
Let’s look at how Paul’s describes Israel’s election
-1.
Paul’s burden for the Israel.
(1-3) Pray to God that we would have that burden for the lost.
-2.
Lets discover the blessings of their election in verses 1-5
-a.
Do I believe in election?
That’s the wrong question.
Is election taught in the Bible?
If so what does the Bible teach about election?
-b.
God’s work of election does not do away with the will of man.
-1) we are not robots.
-2) we are not keyboards.
-c. the blessings.
-1) The adoption chosen by God because of his love.
-2) The glory—speaks of the glory of God.
-3) The covenants
-a) Abraham.
-b) Moses.
-c) David
-d) God gave unchanging covenants to his people.
-4) The Giving of the Law was a blessing.
-5) The Service to God via the priestly service in the tabernacle.
-6) The Promises from God.
-a) Many promises already fulfilled from OT.
-b) More to come for the Jews.
-7) The Fathers of the Faith.
Abraham
Isaac
Jacob
-8) The Messiah.
-d.
No other nation enjoy these blessings.
None had it so good.
Now if we didn’t know better what would we expect from such blessed people.
-1) Obedience.
-2) Disobedience.
-3) Comment on the blessings we have in Christ NOW!
-3.
The Basis for God’s election of Israel.
(6-13)
-a.
In election God exercises His Sovereign will to accomplish His perfect plan.
-b.
One thing you must know about this chapter is God is speaking of nations, not individuals.
-B. Israel’s election defended.
(9:14-33)
*-II.
ISRAEL’S PRESENT.
(Romans 10)*
* *
-A.
They are lost.
They are not saved!
They rejected the Messiah, and they need a savior at this point in God’s redemptive history.
-1.
The important word in this chapter is righteousness.
-2.
We can applaud the Jews for knowing that righteousness is needed, but we should pity them and pray for them that they are deceived about the means of obtaining righteousness.
-3.
Read Romans 10:1-13.
-a.
We have two types of righteousness described here.
-b.
God’s
-c.
Man’s
-d.
This is history of the Jews, and really of all mankind.
-e.
For the Jew they had the law of God, but they never accepted the end of the law which is Jesus Christ.
-f.
Notice Paul’s heavy quotation of the O.T.
-1) Friends Paul was saying to the Jews the Scripture you cherish tell you the same message that of the New Testament.
-2.
Salvation is by Faith alone.
-4.
Talk about many today will not trust in Jesus.
