Proverbs chapter 25 and we'll go to Jeremiah chapter number six This is very important so keep Romans 11 26 in mind Keep that concept in mind that it's not referring to eternal life. We're gonna explain what this means So in Jeremiah chapters 20 chapter 6 in verse number 30, we find the definition of what a reprobate is Okay, often people say well, what is the definition of a reprobate? We take them to Jeremiah chapter 6 because Jeremiah chapter 6 in verse 30 is the first time reprobate is mentioned. Well, there's there's a unwritten rule of the Bible that if you want to know a definition of a word you go to where it's first mentioned in the Bible and often that'll give you the definition of what that word means Well, this is the first time reprobate is mentioned in verse 30 and look what the Bible says here in verse number 30 reprobate Silver shall men call them because the Lord hath rejected them now So what does reprobate mean according to verse 30 means rejected? Okay, they're used synonymously in that one verse now That's a great verse to use it when we're talking about Sodomites and what a reprobate is and we compare it to Romans chapter number one But in context, it's actually talking about something else. Look at verse 28 It says they are all grievous revolters Walking with slanders. There are brass and iron. They are all corruptors Now if you read the chapter, you'll see that he's talking about Israel He's talking about the fact that they have gotten away from God they're not adhering to his commandments they are corruptors They are revolters and look at verse 29 says the bellows are burned The lead is consumed of the fire the founder Melted in vain for the wicked are not plucked away. So what is it saying here in verse number 29? He says look the founder which is God He's trying to burn this silver, okay, you say what comparison is he making there? well, when you're burning silver you do it with the with the with the motive of Relieving it of its impurities taking all the way the impurities from the silver from the treasures from the brass That's why you burn it, but the Bible saying here in verse number 29 That the founder melteth in vain So He's like burning in he's putting it in the fire and guess what the impurities are not being removed Therefore it's in vain and then he come and then he makes the application to the nation of Israel He says for the wicked are not plucked away So the wicked are is is an example of the impurities, right? The that which they're trying to remove and he says look God is melting the in vain He's judging in vain why because the wicked are not plucked away from Israel. They're staying there They're remaining in their ways. Do not adhering to God So he's so they're basically there that the impurities are staying the wicked are staying then we get into verse 30 reprobate silver Shall men call them because the Lord hath rejected them because the founder will look at the silver and said this is no good I can't remove the impurities from this. It's rejected He said why does he call it reprobate silver? Because if you remember in Exodus they were supposed to be a peculiar what treasure unto the Lord Well here we see that because the wicked are not plucked away Right that they are now reprobate now. They're there as a nation. They are become rejected. Does that make sense to everyone? So keep that in mind So we have the comparison that God is this analogy that God is giving of a founder melting in vain He's melting the silver. The silver is referring to Israel, right? Now they are rejected because the wicked are not plucked away now with that in mind go to Proverbs chapter 25 Proverbs chapter number 25 And look at verse number 4 The Bible says here in verse number 4 of Proverbs chapter 25 take away the dross from the silver now What is dross? That's the impurities. That's the the filth That's that's what it's talking about what we see in Jeremiah chapter number 6 take away the dross from the silver and there shall come Forth a vessel for the finer referring to who God now There is a secondary application to this because we can apply this to our personal lives You know, we ought to work at removing the dross from our personal lives so we could be a vessel for the finer Where do we see that? Well, the Bible tells us that a man if a man purged himself therefore from these, you know He shall be sanctified and meet for the master's use and previous to that It says he that name with the name of Christ let him depart from iniquity So as we clean up our lives, we remove the dross from our lives We can be a vessel and to honor meet for the master's use We see that in verse number four says take away the dross from the silver and there shall come forth the vessel for the finer But what is the primary interpretation look at verse number five? Take away the wicked From before the king and his throne shall be established in righteousness So what does it say? The dross is reference to what the wicked and God is saying here when you remove the wicked from before the king Now the kingdom can be established in righteousness Why wasn't the kingdom able to be established in righteousness in Jeremiah chapter 6 because the wicked were not plucked away You see what I'm saying now With that in mind, okay I know we got we're keeping a lot of things in mind, but this is important go back to Romans chapter number 11 Romans chapter number 11 So We see here the salvation is not always in reference to eternal life We see that Jeremiah chapter 6 talking talks about the refiner Melting in vain and therefore because the wicked are not plucked away reprobate silver shall men call them for the Lord has rejected them we see the principle and in Proverbs chapter 25 where it says that if we remove the dross from the silver that shall come forth a Vessel for the finer and that means when you pluck the wicked away Therefore the kingdom can be established in righteousness now Romans chapter 11 verse 26 What does it say? And so all Israel shall be saved as it is written there shall come forth a deliverer out of Zion a deliverer and shall turn away what? ungodliness from Jacob So why is Israel being saved because ungodliness is being removed from Jacob? It's not like they're being removed. Okay, now you guys can get saved You know, all the wicked people are gone now, you know, all your buddies are gone now You can pray this prayer because the wicked are gone from you. That's not what it means It's saying now the kingdom can be established in righteousness, which is in Revelation chapter 19 the millennial reign Why because now the ungodly are being plucked out of Jacob. So how are they being plucked out? We'll get into that but it's called the days of vengeance Okay now Does that make sense to everyone? Okay, because this is important for people to understand because I don't want you to get stumped when people say this to you yeah But all Israel shall be saved It's like that's not what it's talking about So, how do we know what it's exactly being saved is talking about look in verse number two context here The Bible says in verse 2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew What ye not with the scripture saith of Elias how he maketh intercessions to God against Israel There's someone who prayed for Israel right but he prayed against it Verse 3 Lord. They have killed thy prophets This is quoting Elijah and dig down thine altars and I am left alone and they seek my life But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have what reserved to myself 7,000 men who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal even so then at this present time there's also there is a remnant according to the election of Grace so verse number four says God in his response to Elijah says this relax There's still 7,000 who are reserved who have not bowed the knee to Baal That means other than those 7,000 there were people who were bound in a need to bail And if you read the story a lot of them get killed, okay So this is in context of what we see Romans 11 verse 24 to 25 25 to 26 where he says all Israel shall be saved What does that really mean? It means all Israel shall be reserved See saved and reserved are used interchangeably because if I were to say hey mark I know you got that party on Saturday, but I'm gonna be late. So please save me a seat What am I asking him? I'm asking him to reserve me a seat Why is all why shall all Israel be reserved? Why will there be no one who bows the knee to bail because everyone who does in Revelation chapter 19 is being destroyed Because the ungodly are being plucked away. They're being removed It can now be a vessel for the finer So when it says all Israel shall be saved we got to go to where it's talking about as it is written there shall come Forth to deliver out of Zion that shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob. That's referring to the millennial reign And in order for the millennial reign to be established in righteousness the wicked need to be plucked out Well that takes place and we're gonna look at that in just a bit So don't let anyone to stump you on that verse. Okay, and don't let anyone squirm their way out of that You quote Romans to call Romans chapter 4 quote Romans 9 10 and quote Jeremy Galatians chapter 3 and 4 and John chapter 8 and Hebrews 8 quote all those and when they say yeah But Romans 11 you'll say yeah, let me show you where Romans 11 says 2 because that was the next scripture I was going to You
