   Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved.
   For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
   For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God.
   For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

   For Moses writes about the righteousness which is of the law, “The man who does those things shall live by them.”
   But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ down from above) or, “ ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ ” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).
   But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
   For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
   For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”
   For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.
   For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

   Isaiah 28:16
   Therefore thus says the Lord God:

   “Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation,
   A tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation;
   Whoever believes will not act hastily.

   Jeremiah 17:7
   “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
   And whose hope is the Lord.

   How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed?
   How shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard?
   How shall they hear without a preacher?
   How shall they preach unless they are sent?

   Send => Preach => Hear => Believe => Call on Him

   As it is written:

   “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace,
   Who bring glad tidings of good things!”

   Isaiah 52:7
   How beautiful upon the mountains
   Are the feet of him who brings good news,
   Who proclaims peace,
   Who brings glad tidings of good things,
   Who proclaims salvation,
   Who says to Zion,
   “Your God reigns!”

   But they have not all obeyed the gospel.
   For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”
   So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

   Isaiah 53:1
   Who has believed our report?
   And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?

   But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed:

   “Their sound has gone out to all the earth,
   And their words to the ends of the world.”

   But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says:

   “I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation,
   I will move you to anger by a foolish nation.”

   Deuteronomy 32:21
   They have provoked Me to jealousy by what is not God;
   They have moved Me to anger by their [f]foolish idols.
   But I will provoke them to jealousy by those who are not a nation;

   But Isaiah is very bold and says:

   “I was found by those who did not seek Me;
   I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me.”

   Isaiah 65:1
   “I was sought by those who did not ask for Me;
   I was found by those who did not seek Me.
   I said, ‘Here I am, here I am,’
   To a nation that was not called by My name.

   But to Israel he says:

   “All day long I have stretched out My hands
   To a disobedient and contrary people.”

   Isaiah 65:2
   I have stretched out My hands all day long to a rebellious people,
   Who walk in a way that is not good,
   According to their own thoughts;
