Romans 11:19-21

New Century Version

¹⁹ You will say, “Branches were broken off so that I could be joined to their tree.” ²⁰ That is true. But those branches were broken off because they did not believe, and you continue to be part of the tree only because you believe. Do not be proud, but be afraid. ²¹ If God did not let the natural branches of that tree stay, then he will not let you stay if you don’t believe.
