1 I ask then, has God rejected his people? Absolutely not. For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. 2 God did not reject his people, which he foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel: 3 |Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have broken down your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.| 4 But how does God answer him? |I have kept for myself seven thousand people, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.| Romans 11:1-4, New Heart English Bible.
