45:009:032 Wherefore? Because they sought it
not by faith, but as it were
by
the works of the law. For they stumbled at that
stumblingstone;
45:009:033 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion
a stumblingstone and
rock
of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall
not be
ashamed.
45:010:001 Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer
to God for Israel is,
that
they might be saved.
45:010:002 For I bear them record that they have a
zeal of God, but not
according
to knowledge.
45:010:003 For they being ignorant of God’s
righteousness, and going
about
to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted
themselves
unto the righteousness of God.
45:010:004 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness
to every
one
that believeth.
45:010:005 For Moses describeth the righteousness
which is of the law,
That
the man which doeth those things shall live by them.
45:010:006 But the righteousness which is of faith
speaketh on this wise,
Say
not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that
is,
to bring Christ down from above:)
45:010:007 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that
is, to bring up
Christ
again from the dead.)
45:010:008 But what saith it? The word is nigh
thee, even in thy mouth,
and
in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which
we preach;
45:010:009 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth
the Lord Jesus, and
shalt
believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from
the
dead,
thou shalt be saved.
45:010:010 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness;
and with
the
mouth confession is made unto salvation.
45:010:011 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth
on him shall not
be
ashamed.
45:010:012 For there is no difference between the
Jew and the Greek: for
the
same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon
him.
45:010:013 For whosoever shall call upon the name
of the Lord shall be
saved.
45:010:014 How then shall they call on him in whom
they have not
believed?
and how shall they believe in him of whom they have
not
heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
45:010:015 And how shall they preach, except they
be sent? as it is
written,
How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the
gospel
of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
45:010:016 But they have not all obeyed the gospel.
For Esaias saith,
Lord,
who hath believed our report?
45:010:017 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing
by the word of
God.
