Election and
Predestination - 3
Romans 10:1-17
Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel
is, that they might be saved. 2 For I bear them record
that they have a zeal of God, but not according to
knowledge. 3 For they being ignorant of God's
righteousness, and going about to establish their own
righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the
righteousness of God.
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to
every one that believeth.
5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the
law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by
them.
6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this
wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into
heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring
up Christ again from the dead.)
8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy
mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which
we preach;
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath
raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
•10 For with the heart man believeth unto
righteousness; and with the mouth confession is
made unto salvation.
•11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on
him shall not be ashamed.
•12 For there is no difference between the Jew and
the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto
all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the
Lord shall be saved.
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they
have not believed? and how shall they believe in
him of whom they have not heard? and how shall
they hear without a preacher?
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the
Lord shall be saved.
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they
have not believed? and how shall they believe in
him of whom they have not heard? and how shall
they hear without a preacher?
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent?
as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them
that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad
tidings of good things!
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For
Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?
17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by
the word of God.
Chapter 9: The Selection of the Nation of Israel.
Deuteronomy 7:6
For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God:
the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special
people unto himself, above all people that are
upon the face of the earth.
Romans 3:1-2
1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what
profit is there of circumcision?
2 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them
were committed the oracles of God.
Chapter 10: The Rejection of the Nation of Israel.
Chapter 11: The Future Restoration of the Nation
of Israel.
1. A Rejection of the Nation of Israel.
Romans 9:22-23
22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make
his power known, endured with much longsuffering the
vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: 23 And that he
might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels
of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
2. A Remnant of the Nation of Israel Saved
Romans 9:27
Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the
number of the children of Israel be as the sand of
the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
3. A Requirement for Salvation.
Romans 10:4-17
1. Romans 10: 4-5
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness
to every one that believeth.
5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is
of the law, That the man which doeth those things
shall live by them.
Matthew 5:17
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the
prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
Colossians 2:13-14
13 And you, being dead in your sins and the
uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened
together with him, having forgiven you all
trespasses;
14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that
was against us, which was contrary to us, and took
it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
Galatians 3:24
Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring
us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
2. Romans 10:6-7
6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh
on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall
ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down
from above:)
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to
bring up Christ again from the dead.)
Hebrews 6:1
Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of
Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying
again the foundation of repentance from dead
works, and of faith toward God,
3. Romans 10:8
8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in
thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of
faith, which we preach;
Galatians 3:10-14
10 For as many as are of the works of the law are
under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every
one that continueth not in all things which are
written in the book of the law to do them.
11 But that no man is justified by the law in the
sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by
faith.
12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that
doeth them shall live in them.
13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the
law, being made a curse for us: for it is written,
Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on
the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might
receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that
not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
4. Romans 10:9-10
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God
hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be
saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto
righteousness; and with the mouth confession is
made unto salvation.
a. Believing in the heart
1 Corinthians 15:17-20
17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye
are yet in your sins. 18 Then they also which are
fallen asleep in Christ are perished. 19 If in this life
only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men
most miserable. 20 But now is Christ risen from the
dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
b. Believing has always been the
way of salvation
c. The perfect example was the
Ethiopian Eunuch
Acts 8:36-37
36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a
certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is
water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine
heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I
believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God
1) His salvation:
“If thou believest with all thine heart.”
2) His confession:
“I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God!”
5. Romans 10:11
For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on
him shall not be ashamed.
a. Christ bore our shame
Hebrews 12:2
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of
our faith; who for the joy that was set before
him endured the cross, despising the shame,
and is set down at the right hand of the throne
of God.
b. Christ is not ashamed of us
Hebrews 2:11
For both he that sanctifieth and they who are
sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not
ashamed to call them brethren,
c. We should never be ashamed of
Christ
2 Timothy 1:8
Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of
our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou
partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according
to the power of God;
6. Romans 10:12-13
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and
the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto
all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call
upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Revelation 22:17
And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let
him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is
athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the
water of life freely.
