Here is the Stand on the Word reading for today:

Romans 9 ESV | NKJV | AUDIO

Reflection Questions:

1) Heartbroken over his fellow Jews who had rejected Christ, what advantages did they enjoy that ultimately proved to make them even more accountable (see 9:1-5)?

1. The adoption and glory
2. The covenants and giving of the law
3. The worship and the promises
4. The patriarchs, and, according to the flesh, the Christ
5. All of the above

2) What did Paul mean when he said: "For not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel, and not all are children of Abraham because they are his offspring..." (see 9:6-7; 27)?
