Romans 11:16-23
For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root
be holy, so are the branches. And if some of the branches be broken off,
and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in among them, and with
them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; Boast not
against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but
the root thee.
Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest HE also spare not thee.
Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in HIS goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
