2. Read Romans 10:1 and 11:13-14. From what you know of Paul, how might you describe his evangelistic strategy? How do you think we might want to apply this to our own evangelistic strategy?

4. What might be some reasons that God chose the Israelites to be a particular people? (Consider 1 Samuel 7:23-24; Genesis 12:3; and the last part of Romans 9:5)
