do find it interesting here that there is a correlation between the Jews and a
reprobate though okay though it's not saying that reprobates can be saved
there is a commonality between the Jews found in Romans chapter 2 and the
reprobates in Romans chapter number 1 because verse number 1 in Romans 2 the
latter end says for wherein thou judges another thou condemnest thyself for
thou that judges doest the same things now what is the same thing that the Jew
would do that the reprobate has done now go to Romans chapter 1 and verse 21 look
at the Bible reads here because that when they knew God they glorified him
not as God neither were thankful but became vain in their imagination and
their foolish heart was darkened so that fits perfectly with the Jew who is a
Christ rejecting person right what is that they because the Bible says he came
into his own and his own received them not they rejected the Lord Jesus Christ
and therefore the foolish heart was darkened now go with me if you went to
John chapter 12 John chapter number 12 so there is similarities between the Jew
and the reprobate what is that they both rejected Christ okay and in fact many
Jews who have completely rejected Christ we would say yes they are reprobate and
they can no longer be saved he said why is that look at John 12 verse 39
therefore they could not believe because that Isaiah saith again he have blinded
their eyes and harden their heart that they should not see with their eyes nor
understand with their heart and be converted and I should heal them
referring to the Jews so you know what the commonality is between the
reprobates and the Jews is they both rejected Christ so they're both have a
foolish heart that's darkened they both have rejected the truth they both did
not want to trust Christ as your Savior and they're both are still depending on
their works
