>>Romans 11:20 Well : because of unbelief they were broken off. But thou standest by faith : be not highminded, but fear.<<
If someone doesn't believe God and take Him at His word, IOW that He is going to deliver on His promises, that person does not have faith.
Please dont ping me again. I will return the favor.

Yes, since it's impossible for some folks to keep their word, by all means let's do highlight some of what what they left out:
Romans 11:20 Thou standest by faith : be not highminded, but fear. We see here that he who standeth by faith may fall from it ; and therefore must live in fear, and not in the vain presumption and security of modern sectaries.
Romans 11:21 For if God hath not spared the natural branches, fear lest perhaps he also spare not thee.
Romans 11:22 See then the goodness and the severity of God : towards them indeed that are fallen, the severity ; but towards thee, the goodness of God, if thou abide in goodness, otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
As always, the trash talking sort of folks try to ignore the portions of Scripture that don't fit their personal heresy and agenda.
