Romans 11:13-24 - Gentile Branches Grafted In
13 For I speak to you, gentiles. Inasmuch as I am an apostle of the gentiles, I glorify my ministry, 14 if perhaps I may excite my flesh [race] to emulation and save some of them. 15 For if their falling away is the reconciling of the world, what will their recovery be but life from the dead? 16 And if the first fruit is holy, the mass is also; and if the root is holy, the branches also are.
17 But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became a partaker of the root and excellence of the olive, 18 boast not against the branches; but if you boast, you bear not the root, but the root you. 19 You will say then, The branches were broken off that I might be grafted in. 20 Well; they were broken off by unbelief, and you stand by faith. Be not high-minded, but fear; 21 for if God spared not the natural branches, perhaps he will not spare you. 22 See then the goodness and severity of God; towards those that fell, severity, but towards you, the goodness of God, if you continue in goodness, for otherwise you also will be cut off. 23 And they, if they continue not in unbelief, will be grafted in; for God is able to graft them in again. 24 For if you have been cut from an olive wild by nature, and grafted contrary to nature into a good olive, how much more shall they according to nature be grafted into their own olive.
