This sermon unpacks Romans 9–10, focusing on Paul’s deep burden for his kindred in the flesh — the Israelites. The preacher challenges believers to rediscover Christ’s uncompromising compassion: not a sentimental or passive love but a truth‑telling, sacrificial heart that longs for the lost to be saved. We’re urged to see outward sin as the symptom of an inward need, to recognize self‑righteous zeal without knowledge, and to submit wholly to Christ’s righteousness. Practical conviction: if Christ doesn’t mean much to you, share His heart by praying, grieving, and evangelizing the lost around you.
