Romans 10:17-21

So faith comes from hearing the Good News, and people hear the Good News when someone tells them about Christ. But I ask: Didn’t people hear the Good News? Yes, they heard—as the Scripture says: “Their message went out through all the world; their words go everywhere on earth.” Again I ask: Didn’t the people of Israel understand? Yes, they did understand. First, Moses says: “I will use those who are not a nation to make you jealous. I will use a nation that does not understand to make you angry.” Then Isaiah is bold enough to say: “I was found by those who were not asking me for help. I made myself known to people who were not looking for me.” But about Israel God says, “All day long I stood ready to accept people who disobey and are stubborn.”
