ROMANS 9-11 SUMMARY
Romans 9: Gods sovereign choice of Israel as the vehicle of salvation
Romans 10: Israels stumbling over Christ and rebelling against God
Romans 11: The prospect of Israels restoration and God being glorified thereby
God has not totally rejected His people because of their unbelief
Gentiles salvation is a result of Israels rejection, so they need to learn from Israels mistakes
Gods rejection of His people is not final, and Gods purposes are too profound for man to understand

2.2 Remnant grace is apart from works
1 I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. 2 God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel, saying, 3 LORD, they have killed Your prophets and torn down Your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life? 4 But what does the divine response say to him? I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal. 5 Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace. 6 And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work. (NKJV)
