LESSON 53
LESSON OF THE
BRANCHES PART 2
Romans
11:22-27 (KJV)
22
Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on
them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his
goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. 23 And
they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for
God is able to graft them in again. 24 For if thou wert cut
out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert grafted contrary to
nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural
branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
25 For I
would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should
be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel,
until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
26 And so
all Israel shall be
saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer,
and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
27 For this is my
covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
Romans
11:22-27 (CEB)
22
So look at God’s kindness and harshness. It’s harshness
toward those who fell, but it’s God’s kindness for you, provided you continue
in his kindness; otherwise, you could be cut off too. 23 And even those who were cut off will be grafted back
in if they don’t continue to be unfaithful, because God is able to graft them
in again. 24 If
you were naturally part of a wild olive tree and you were cut off from it, and
then, contrary to nature, you were grafted into the cultivated olive tree,
won’t these natural branches stand an even better chance of being grafted back
onto their own olive tree? 25 I don’t want you to be unaware
of this secret,
[a] brothers and sisters. That way you won’t
think too highly of yourselves. A part of Israel has become resistant until the
full number of the Gentiles comes in.
26 In this way, all Israel will be saved, as it is written:
The deliverer will come from Zion. He will remove ungodly behavior from
Jacob. 27 This is my covenant with them, when I take
away their sins.

Isaiah
59:20 (CEB) 20 A redeemer will come to Zion and to those in Jacob who stop
rebelling, says the Lord.
