Speaking of Arminians. Here's something from my favorite Arminian.... WESLEY's Explanatory Notes. Verse 25 [25] For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness...

I can see partial quoting, but not cutting off a quote in the middle of a paragraph. That's just me, though. That's cool. You can do what you want.

Thanks Brother You may be surprised with how much we agree on. My views are much different now than they were years ago when I used to post here formerly, if you are thinking about my posts from back then.

I do not agree with Calvin on everything, but he was spot on on Romans 11. So was the RC Sproul. So was Gill So was Jamieson , Faucett, and Brown Probably a lot of others too.

Paul is not merely repeating himself over and over again. His argument in Romans 9-11 is progressing towards the mystery in Romans 11:25. The best bible exegetes are with me on the interpretation of Romans 11 as being a future restoration of Israel.

1689 as in 1689 Baptist confession of faith? My position is fully compatible with Calvinism. Calvin's commentary on Romans 11 That blindness in part, etc. “In part,” I think, refers not simply to time, nor to the number, but means, in a manner, or in a measure; by which expression he intended...

Calvin's commentary on Romans 11 That blindness in part, etc. “In part,” I think, refers not simply to time, nor to the number, but means, in a manner, or in a measure; by which expression he intended, as it seems to me, only to qualify a declaration which in itself was severe. Until does not...

Romans 11:25 and verses following is the scripture that we have.

This explanation, which includes elements of what I have said and elements of what others have said, (I think) is a good interpretation of the text.; Not every ethnic jew will be saved, but the Holy Spirit will be poured on Israel as a corporate body. SEE also Zechariah 12:10 As we have noted...

The message of Romans 11 is clear to everyone who reads it without "tradition goggles" on. That would include Calvin, Gill, and others. I was SURPRISED that Calvin had basically the same view on Romans 11 as I do, I thought he would have had a different view, so I went online to see what his...

. So you put part of Gill's commentary and leave the part out you disagree with? I wouldn't do that personally.

I did not come to my position reading commentaries, but by reading scripture. But it appears that Calvin and Gill (two quite different traditions) came to the same conclusion I did.

WHY did you exclude THIS PART of Gill's commentary?!You cut it off before it got to this part. which in the latter day will be very great; when the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea; when the kingdoms of this world shall become the kingdoms of...

I like this simple and concise explanation better... {13} For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your {b} own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be {c} come in. (13) The blindness...

Calvin's commentary on Romans 11 That blindness in part, etc. “In part,” I think, refers not simply to time, nor to the number, but means, in a manner, or in a measure; by which expression he intended, as it seems to me, only to qualify a declaration which in itself was severe. Until does not...

sorry, the second coming is not mentioned in the text. The fulness of the Gentiles has to do with when the full number of Gentile elect are gathered. It does not say when the fulness of the elect, which would be at the second coming. It says Israel’s blindness will be removed when the fulness...

not me, Paul. Read Romans 11:28 and tell me who he is talking about. also, who is the question in Romans 11:11and who is Romans 11:15 talking about?

paul stated clearly what the mystery was. Romans 11:25 to 27. And verses 28 and following tell us who this mystery is about. The ones who are enemies on account of the Gospel but are beloved on account of election due to the promises made to the patriarchs and God used their blindness to...

Romans 11:25-27 is speaking of the same Israel that Romans 11:28-29 I can tell that you are kept from exegesis by your traditions,because you said the period of blindness only referred to those who lived back then, and had passed long ago. That is not only incoherant, it flies in the face of...

They will not be saved by DNA, they will be saved by faith. Same as always. Therefore, what Romans 11:25-27 says about the Israelites of Romans 11:28-29 is not based on DNA. Rather it is based on the covenant God made with the Fathers
