Worship series:    ROMANS: ‘Not Ashamed of the Gospel’
 
Scripture              Romans 10.4-13

Nothing, Paul says, can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.  And he means ‘nothing!’  Even Israel’s unbelief cannot ultimately separate her from the love of God in Christ.   Incredibly, many later Christian commentators have missed this truth completely.  One of the great church historians, Adolph Harnack, wrote that it was ‘Paul who delivered the Christian religion from Judaism.’   This is a serious misreading of Paul.   Nowhere does Paul see God replacing the people of Israel with the church.  Join us as Claire reflects on this powerful text, yet another example of the radical inclusivity of God’s grace.
