Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If a man walk in the day he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. But if a man walk in the night he stumbleth, because there is no light in him."
Then Jesus said unto them, "Yet a little while is the light with you: walk while ye have light, lest the darkness come on you. He that walketh in the dark, knoweth not whither he goeth. While ye have light, believe on the light that ye may be the children of light." These things spake Jesus, and departed, and hid himself from them.
But the way of the ungodly is as the darkness, wherein men fall, or they be aware.

I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For even I verily am an Israelite of the seed of Abraham, and of the tribe of Benjamin; God hath not cast away his people which he knew before.

But what saith the answer of God to him again? "I have reserved unto me seven thousand men which have not bowed their knees to Baal." Even so at this time is there a remnant left through the election of grace. If it be of grace, then is it not of works. For then were grace no more grace. If it be by the deserving of works, then is it no more grace. For then were deserving no longer deserving. What then? Israel hath not obtained that that he sought. No but yet the election hath obtained it. The remnant are blinded, according as it is written, "God hath given them the spirit of unquietness: eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, even unto this day." And David saith, "Let their table be made a snare to take them withal, and an occasion to fall, and a reward unto them. Let their eyes be blinded that they see not: and ever bow down their backs." I say then, Have they therefore stumbled that they should but fall only? God forbid: but through their fall is salvation happened unto the gentiles for to provoke them withal.

"For our rock is not as their rock; no, though our enemies be judge. But their vines are of the vines of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah. Their grapes are grapes of gall, and their clusters be bitter. Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel gall of asps. read more.
Are not such things laid in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures? "'Vengeance is mine, and I will reward! Their feet shall slide, when the time cometh. For the time of their destruction is at hand, and the time that shall come upon them maketh haste.'
