The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: ROM 9:32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were
by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
ROM 9:33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and
rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
ROM 10:1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is,
that they might be saved.
ROM 10:2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not
according to knowledge.
ROM 10:3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going
about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted
themselves unto the righteousness of God.
