Romans 11:4 in Context — Romans 11

2 Deus não rejeitou seu povo, o qual desde antes conhecia. Ou não sabeis o que a Escritura diz de Elias? Como ele fala a Deus, contra Israel, dizendo:

3 “Senhor, mataram os teus profetas, e derrubaram os teus altares; só eu fiquei, e buscam tirar-me a vida.”

4 Mas o que lhe disse a divina resposta? “Reservei para mim sete mil homens que não dobraram os joelhos a Baal.”

5 Portanto, também agora no presente tempo ficou um remanescente, escolhido pela graça.

6 E, se é pela graça, logo não é pelas obras; de outra maneira, a graça já não é graça. E se é pelas obras, logo não é [pela] graça; de outra maneira a obra já não é obra.
