Understanding God's Plan for Israel and the Gentiles

I have selected 12 quotes from the transcript that align with the key takeaways provided. Here they are:

"I would not Brethren that ye should be ignorant of this mystery lest you should be wise in your own conceits, that blindness in part is happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles become in and so all Israel shall be saved as it is written there shall come out of Zion the deliverer and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob." [00:20:16]

"The rejection of Israel is not total and in this second section he's been pointing out that it isn't final it's only temporary and that's the way in which he's been working out that great argument now then having done that he leaves argumentation and moves to the realm of direct assertion." [00:37:52]

"The Apostle is anxious to instruct these Gentiles and to show them that what has happened is not in any way inconsistent with the Old Testament teaching they seem to be dismissing the whole of the Old Testament that doesn't matter any longer there are still uninstructed Christian people who tend to say that today." [00:10:04]

"Now this again if I may turn aside for a moment in a digression this to me is helpful once more in the whole question of our method of biblical study the thing to do always with the scripture is to ask it questions and many people I feel don't profit by their reading of the scriptures because they don't ask questions." [00:07:02]

"Christianity is Mystery revealed I'm going to show you says the Apostle not concealing revealing what a contrast it is and this is something I say which is of value to us at the present time even as it was in the times of the great APLE let us ever remember this therefore when people may tell you that they've got something that's superior to the teaching of the church something better something that does more good the reply to make to such people is this if it's so wonderful why you make a secret of it." [00:35:06]

"The Apostle uses their term but shows them what a different thing the Christian faith and the Christian teaching really is in the apostles usage of mystery it means this and this is most important it means a truth which is concealed from the natural understanding of men but which God in his infinite grace has been placed to reveal." [00:26:56]

"Now it is again most important that we should bear in mind that what the Apostle is dealing with in all these statements is the nation of the Jews considered racially he's not dealing with the case of individuals he's dealing with this whole position of this Jewish race in other words as I was trying to show last week and the week before the puzzle is not dealing here with the question of an individual and his salvation." [00:04:35]

"Paul a called Apostle he's done it in this epistle to the Romans but that's what he means by All That the Truth was revealed by the Risen Lord to these chosen men and God in his wisdom saw to it that these men and those in close contact with them should receive and write down this revealed truth and here it is for the church in all subsequent ages." [00:40:08]

"Now someone may put a question at this point and it's a perfectly reasonable question if the Apostle all along was aware of what he's now going to declare in verse 25 why then did he bother with his five arguments now I wonder whether that's occurred to any of you if the Apostle has known all along as he did that it was in the plan and the purpose of God to bring in the Jews rationally considered into to the church and Back Again into his favor well then why is he bothered to take all this time the first 24 verses of this chapter in reasoning about it and arguing about it in the way that we've been considering in the five arguments." [00:06:00]

"Now this is to me a very important matter that's why it's always vital that we should watch the Apostle in his particular method look at the trouble he's taken before he comes to this tremendous statement now then having done that then he comes to the statement he puts before them this great Prophecy with regard to the future of the Jews considered in a racial sense now again let's ask him a question why does he do this why does he tell them this prophecy well he gives us an explicit answer himself on this occasion and here it is I would not Bren that you should be ignorant of this mystery and then he gives a second reason lest you should be wise in your own conceits." [00:14:26]

"Now let me give you some other illustrations or examples from the scriptures of the use of this very term you will get it in the last chapter of this epistle to the Romans in verses 25 and 26 the Apostle says now to him that is of power to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery which was Kept Secret since the world began but now is made manifest and by the scriptures of the prophets according to the Commandment of the Everlasting ing God made known to All Nations for The Obedience of Faith there's a perfect illustration of this very thing." [00:28:59]

"The Apostle here is telling these Romans that he's going to make an utterance that is exactly the same as the utterances of the prophets under the Old Testament dispensation the Romans are to remember that they are to believe this as the revealed truth of God and you and I in our day and generation how to do the same thing this isn't the opinion of of Paul the men this is the prophetic utterance of Paul the called Apostle of Jesus Christ unto whom the Revelation has been given very well that is how he introduces this tremendous statement about the future of Israel in a racial sense which God willing we will proceed to consider next Friday evening." [00:43:13]
