The Message
Israel Reduced to Religion
10 1-3 Believe me, friends, all I want for Israel is what’s best for Israel: salvation, nothing less. I want it with all my heart and pray to God for it all the time.

They don’t seem to realize that this comprehensive setting-things-right that is salvation is God’s business, and a most flourishing business it is.

After all these years of refusing to really deal with God on his terms, insisting instead on making their own deals, they have nothing to show for it.
