The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: Baal.
ROM 11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant
according to the election of grace.
ROM 11:6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace
is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace:
otherwise work is no more work.
ROM 11:7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for;
but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
ROM 11:8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of
slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not
hear;) unto this day.
