bigape;75238]Hello gumby Nice to be talking to you. You said......I studied these Scriptures said:
Psalms 89:28-34[/B]V.28 My mercy will I keep for him for evermore, and my covenant shall stand fast with him. V.29 His seed also will I make [to endure] for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven. V.30 If his children forsake my law, and walk not in my judgments; V.31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments; V.32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes. V.33 Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail. V.34 My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.-------------------------------------------------- And because of this promise, God is not able to condemn them, when they rejected Christ......Romans 11:7“What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded” Sure enough, “the election” are those believing Jews, who trusted and continue to trust Christ;But look at what happened to the rest....”and the rest were blinded”. They weren’t condemned to hell, and they weren’t made the same as the gentiles, but they were blinded.And later on in this chapter we find out way....Romans 11:25-26V.25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. V.26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: And why would God do this.......Romans 11:29“For the gifts and calling of God [are] without repentance.” And what if we don’t understand this; Big deal........Romans 11:33“O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable [are] his judgments, and his ways past finding out!”-------------------------------------------------- So the unbelieving Jews, are being blinded for a season, so that God does not have to judge them.
