God’s Word Justified - Part 2

Israel’s rejection of Christ does not diminish Christ’s glory. The problem is not with Him but them. This leads to Paul’s next defense of the God of grace. Most of Israel has not received the promises made to them. Here too, the problem is not with God but with them. Though unexpected, Israel’s failure is not God’s failure. His Word and promises to Israel stand. Paul’s defense of God’s integrity and the trustworthiness of His Word focuses on the means and nature of the recipients of God’s promises. Paul advances a powerful argument that brings clarity where there is often confusion. It is a passage that renders God’s Word justified. The first part addressed Paul’s thesis that God’s Word is infallible. It then began to address Paul’s approach to interpreting an infallible text. This second part will deal more specifically with Paul’s exposition found in verses 7 and 8.
