There is a Remnant

I’m sure if I lived in Chicago, New York, or Seattle I would feel like Elijah when he appealed to God against Israel. Speaking from Elijah’s perspective Paul said, “Lord, they have killed your prophets and torn down your altars; I am the only one left, and they are trying to kill me”? And what was God’s answer to him? “I have reserved for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal.” So too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace. And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace. What then? What Israel sought so earnestly it did not obtain, but the elect did. The others were hardened…” (Ro 11:3-8a NIV). It’s too bad the media doesn’t report on the actions of the remnant that exists in Chicago, New York and Seattle.
