Most of Israel only accepted You through the teaching in the Old Testament but rejected Christ. When the Gospel has been preached to all nations and the full number of Gentiles who believe in Christ have come in, then Christ will come again to save the people of Israel. This is the moment when the Israelites will be saved and believe in Christ, thus fulfilling Your promise to Abraham and to Israel, as prophesied in the Holy Scriptures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Dear God, I understand verses 28 to 30 as follows: Because the Israelites oppose the faith of those who believe in the Gospel, they are enemies of the Church. I understand that Your grace of salvation for humanity remains unchanged. However, after people have believed in the redemptive death of Jesus Christ, they cannot continue to live in sin and transgress Your commandments. Those who do so have despised Your mercy and will lose their share of grace and salvation because of their disobedience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Dear God, I understand verses 31 to 33 as follows: Because all have sinned and disobeyed You, You have shown mercy and given redemption to humanity. After the Gospel was preached, some believed while others did not, and people still wander in sin, even the Israelites. The Israelites also need Your mercy, just like other nations. Although they grew up with knowledge of You and read the Old Testament, they did not believe in Christ and became opposed to You. You showed mercy and gave redemption to all, whether Israelites or other nations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Dear God, I understand verses 34 to 36 as follows: You are the Almighty and All-knowing God. Your infinite wisdom is beyond human understanding, and no one can know Your mind. Your mercy is abundant, and Your judgment is righteous. As You are God, You do not need anyone&#8217;s advice, reminder, or help. For You have created all things, You understand all things, and You are present everywhere. Everything You do for all of creation reflects Your love, holiness, and righteousness. All that You do is complete and in accordance with Your good and holy will. You desire for humanity to accept Your salvation and enjoy Your love. We should only honor and worship You, for all glory belongs to You forever and ever!<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">I am grateful to You. May love and grace from the Triune God always cover me.
