1 So I ask, |Has God rejected his people Israel?| That's unthinkable! Consider this. I'm an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham from the tribe of Benjamin. 2 God has not rejected his people whom he knew long ago. Don't you know what Elijah says in the Scripture passage when he complains to God about Israel? He says, 3 |Lord, they've killed your prophets and torn down your altars. I'm the only one left, and they're trying to take my life.| 4 But what was God's reply? God said, |I've kept 7,000 people for myself who have not knelt to worship Baal.| Romans 11:1-4, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
