"Although false teaching may in fact produce some good fruit."

Brian, I am aware of Luther's beliefs about the end times. But perhaps the greatest thing he ever did in the name of God was to have the courage of his convictions that we are saved by faith alone. He was brilliant. I admire him for the changes he brought about. To think what the Roman Catholic priests were doing to line their pockets. Selling salvation with the stroke of a pen and even saying that they could save dead relatives.

Hi Brian, you left out a couple of verses.

God will not turn His back on Paul's blood relations.

Romans 11:26 And thus all Israel shall be saved, according as it is written, Arriving out of Zion shall be the Rescuer. He will be turning away irreverence from Jacob.

27 And this is my covenant with them Whenever I should be eliminating their sins.

The truth is that even today most Jews are enemies of Christ but so are all the other cults on this earth - they are no friends to Christ or Christians - just look at the defensive nonsense about the movie "The Passion"

But you of all people Brian should know Who is behind the crucifixion of Christ:

Acts 4:27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,

28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.

God, not the Jews, Gentiles, Herod or Pontius Pilate, was responsible for the death of His Son.
