Lesson 2013

(Lesson 2013)(05-07-17) Romans 10:22-26

"What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory, Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles? As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved. And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God."

Today's lesson again reaffirms that, from the beginning, God's promise was to the Gentiles as well as to those Jews who have already, and may come to believe on our Lord Jesus Christ.

The last part of this lesson relates that, although the Gentiles were at first called "not loved", upon the completion of the ministry of Jesus and their acceptance of Him, they were called "Children of the living God".~
