What then? ro 3

What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that what is sacrificed to an idol is in itself any thing to stumble at?

What then? yet every way, whether in pretence or in truth, Christ is preached: and in this I rejoice, yea and I will rejoice;

Israel

but Israel, who followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness: why?

For being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they have not submitted themselves to the righteousness which is of God.

But He said unto them, Strive to enter in at the strait gate; for I tell you, many will desire to enter in, and shall not be able.

For ye know that, when he would afterwards have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no room for repentance, though he sought it earnestly even with tears.

But the election

And so in the present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

And we know that all things co-operate for good to them that love God, to them that are called according to his purpose;

and that He might make known the riches of his glory in the vessels of mercy, which He hath prepared for glory?

according as he hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and unblameable before Him in love:

But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord; because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation, through sanctification of the Spirit, and belief of the truth:

Asia, and Bithynia, chosen according to the fore-knowledge of God, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience, and to the sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ,---may grace and peace be multiplied unto you.

And the rest

And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which saith, Ye shall hear by the hearing of the ear, and not understand; and in seeing ye shall see, and not perceive: for the heart of this people is grown stupid,

He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they might not see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

for unto this day the same veil remaineth unremoved in the reading of the old testament, which veil is taken away in Christ.

among whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of the unbelieving, so that the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, doth not shine unto them:

and wonders, and with all iniquitous fraud, among those that shall perish; because they received not the love of the truth, by which they might be saved.

Blinded

So then He hath mercy on whom He pleaseth, and whom He will, He hardeneth.
