In Romans 10 we read about needing the gospel.
Especially Israel, while they have a zeal for God, it is not according to God’s righteousness which is established in Christ Jesus, but according to their own righteousness. This is the same for spiritual Israel. Those who try to earn their way into heaven instead of depending on what God has already done for them.
The blessing of salvation is for every soul. Nothing but our own choice can prevent any one person from becoming a partaker of the promise in Christ by the gospel.
This is what the scripture says: ” Anyone who believes in Him (Christ Jesus) will never be disappointed.” [ v. 11] There is no difference between Jews and Gentiles. The same God is Lord of all and responds to anyone who calls on Him for help. The Word also says whoever calls on the Lord will be saved. [v.13]
God does not compel us to give up unbelief, no this is a free will decision and before us are light and darkness, truth and error.
It is for us to decide which we will accept. The human mind has the ability to know right from wrong – we were created in this way.
Which means the evidence and free will given will be how an individual chooses to call upon Christ, abiding in the way, the truth and life or not calling upon Christ and thus denying Him.
The Lord says: ” All day long I have stretched out My hands to a disobedient and contrary people..”
Today you can call out and He will hear you.
Heavenly Father~I pray You will forgive us for sinning against You. I pray that whomever is reading this will look to You for the answers and trust in Your outstretched hands towards them through Christ Jesus the Lord. That they would ask You to give them the ability to weigh out the evidence of Your Words and compare scripture with scripture, and that the truth stand out to them and set them free from the lies of the enemy. and when we doubt and create within us a heart that desires trust more fully in You to know Your truth, empowering us to walk in obedience to it. May all this be in accordance to Your will. In Christ Name, Amen
