                        Why did the church become primarily Gentile?

                        Romans 9: 4, 5 Israel had so much going for them

                        Romans 9: 30-31 The answer

                                    30 The Gentiles did not pursue it but obtained it

                                    31 Israel did pursue it but did not obtain it

                                    32 Why not?

                                         a. They did not pursue it by faith but works

                                         b. They stumbled over Jesus
