Paul's Epistle to the Romans, Remainder of Israel Blinded, Romans 11:7-10

Paul's Epistle to the Romans, Remainder of Israel Blinded, Romans 11:7-10  FREE BIBLE STUDY!
Israel was zealous in their efforts to obtain righteousness, but they went about it in the wrong way. They thought they were righteous because they kept the Law. But the truth is, they never kept it, they did not obey God, and they rejected Christ. They were self-righteous, but they were not righteous in God’s eyes. Therefore, God blinded them to the understanding of His Word and hardened their hearts. The blessings they received at the hand of God became a stumblingblock, because they took that as proof that God was satisfied with their outward religious acts of worship. Finally, God gave the Gospel to the Gentiles, who would believe. To this day, the Jews hearts are hardened, except for a remnant who have accepted Jesus as their Savior.
