THE EPISTLE                  This epistle is given different emphasis by various

    The topical focus of this newsletter centers upon the contents of the 11th Chapter of Romans. I encourage
    you, as a member of the church of Jesus Christ, to take the time to ponder this specific prophetic
    message that Paul is seeking to impart to Gentile believers like you and me. I print it for your thoughtful
    meditation as a message from Paul to all members of the church pertaining to the importance of Israel in
    God’s future economy:
