A
Remnant Shall Be Saved
Rom 9:27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the
children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
Rom 9:28 For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness:
because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.
Rom
9:29 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord
of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto
Gomorrha.
