A Proper Attitude – Rom 11:19-21
Vs 19 – You will say that some of the branches were broken off that we may be grafted in. In other words it is the grace of God that others rejected Christ so I could be grafted in.
Vs 20 – It was their unbelief that caused them to be broken off and now you have been grafted in by faith. Paul then says that they should not become arrogant but afraid. Spiritual life is given because of grace, so rejoice and be glad but never cocky or arrogant.
Vs 21 – If God did not spare the natural branches because of their arrogance and unbelief, He will not spare you either. With the proper attitude we should possess thanksgiving and praise for the grace of God that has been extended to us. Thanksgiving and gratitude are expression of our true appreciation for what God has done.
