Romans 10
1 Brothers, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved.

3 For being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn’t subject themselves to the righteousness of God.

8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart;” that is, the word of faith which we preach:

14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher?
