Romans 11:1-10 | A Remnant of Grace

Harvest OPC

If you are a Christian, one of the most painful issues you will face is the reality of loved ones who do not believe in Christ. You know how Paul feels when he says, in 9:1-2, “I speak the truth in Christ, I am not lying, I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, those of my own race, the people of Israel.”
“Brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved.”
That’s how every child of God feels about loved ones who are not walking in faith. We want them to turn and believe and be saved. But sometimes, that doesn’t happen. Sometimes, loved ones refuse to turn and walk resolutely to their eternal death.
