1 Samuel 12:22
22 aFor the Lord will not forsake his people, bfor his great name’s sake, because cit has pleased the Lord to make you a people for himself.Psalms 94:14
14 dFor the Lord will not forsake his epeople;he will not abandon his fheritage;
Jeremiah 33:25-26
25Thus says the Lord: gIf I have not established my covenant with day and night and the fixed order of heaven and earth, 26then I will reject the offspring of Jacob and David my servant and will not choose one of his offspring to rule over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. hFor I will restore their fortunes and will have mercy on them.”Romans 11:1-2
The Remnant of Israel
1I ask, then, ihas God rejected his people? By no means! For jI myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, ▼▼Or one of the offspring of Abraham
a member of the tribe of Benjamin. 2 lGod has not rejected his people whom he mforeknew. Do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he appeals to God against Israel?
