Top Highlights

“What, according to this interpretation, Paul is saying is that rendering wholehearted devotion is the only logical or reasonable worship of God.” (Page 402)

“The term ‘All Israel’ means the total number of elect Jews, the sum of all Israel’s ‘remnants.’ ‘All Israel’ parallels ‘the fullness of the Gentiles.’” (Page 381)

“What has been said earlier (see on 9:4, pp. 312, 313) about this word worship applies here also. Paul is thinking about the action of worshiping, the wholehearted consecration of heart, mind, will, words, and deeds, in fact of all one is, has, and does, to God. Nothing less!” (Page 402)

“When the Holy Spirit leads believers he becomes the controlling influence in their lives, bringing them at last to glory.” (Page 257)

“To be baptized ‘into Christ Jesus’ implies to be brought into personal relation to the Savior.” (Page 195)
