There are two main issues that Romans 11 addresses, Israel’s rejection of Christ and the believing Gentiles response to it. Paul asks the question of whether God has cast away the Jews now that Gentiles were responding to the gospel. His response is emphatically no.
1. In what ways was God not rejecting the Jews?
2. How was God using the Jews unbelief?
3. What do you think it means when it says that the great number of Jews were hardened?
4. How can God be involved in the hardening without being the author of sin?
5. What do you think it means when it says that there were a remnant of Jews that were chosen by grace?
6. Why do the believing Gentiles have no reason to boast over the unbelieving Jews?
7. What warning is giving to the believing Gentiles concerning the unbelieving Jews?
8. Speak of how the Jews rejection of Jesus is temporary?
9. What ultimate purpose does will the disobedience of both the Jews and Gentiles serve?
10. How does the fact that you were once disobedience and now have been shown mercy affect your walk as a Christian?
