G1510–εἰμί–eimi

You, however, are not devoted to earthly, but to spiritual things, if the Spirit of God is really dwelling in you; whereas if any man has not the Spirit of Christ, such a one does not belong to Him.

ἐστὲ este “are”ἔστιν estin “is”

Therefore, brethren, it is not to our lower natures that we are under obligation that we should live by their rule.

ἐσμὲν esmen “we are”

For those who are led by God's Spirit are, all of them, God's sons.

εἰσιν. eisin “are.”

The Spirit Himself bears witness, along with our own spirits, to the fact that we are children of God;

ἐσμὲν esmen “we are”

It is *in hope* that we have been saved. But an object of hope is such no longer when it is present to view; for when a man has a thing before his eyes, how can he be said to hope for it?

ἔστιν estin “is”

Now we know that for those who love God all things are working together for good--for those, I mean, whom with deliberate purpose He has called.

οὖσιν. ousin “being.”

Who is there to condemn them? Christ Jesus died, or rather has risen to life again. He is also at the right hand of God, and is interceding for us.

ἐστιν estin “is”

when I declare that I have deep grief and unceasing anguish of heart.

ἐστιν estin “is”

To them belongs recognition as God's sons, and they have His glorious Presence and the Covenants, and the giving of the Law, and the Temple service, and the ancient Promises.

εἰσιν eisin “are”

To them the Patriarchs belong, and from them in respect of His human lineage came the Christ, who is exalted above all, God blessed throughout the Ages. Amen.

nor because they are Abraham's true children. But the promise was "Through Isaac shall your posterity be reckoned."

εἰσὶν eisin “they are”

In other words, it is not the children by natural descent who count as God's children, but the children made such by the promise are regarded as Abraham's posterity.

ἔστιν, estin “is”

For the words are the language of promise and run thus, "About this time next year I will come, and Sarah shall have a son."

ἔσται estai “there will be”

Nay, but who are you, a mere man, that you should cavil against GOD? Shall the thing moulded say to him who moulded it, "Why have you made me thus?"

εἶ ei “are”

And in the place where it was said to them, `No people of Mine are you,' there shall they be called sons of the everliving God."

ἔσται estai “It will happen that”

And Isaiah cries aloud concerning Israel, "Though the number of the sons of Israel be like the sands of the sea, only a remnant of them shall be saved;

ᾖ ē “shall be”

Brethren, the longing of my heart, and my prayer to God, on behalf of my countrymen is for their salvation.

ἐστιν estin “is”

But the righteousness which is based on faith speaks in a different tone. "Say not in your heart," it declares, "`Who shall ascend to Heaven?'" --that is, to bring Christ down;

ἔστιν estin “is”

"nor `Who shall go down into the abyss?'" --that is, to bring Christ up again from the grave.

ἔστιν estin “is”

But what does it say? "The Message is close to you, in your mouth and in your heart;" that is, the Message which we are publishing about the faith--

ἐστιν estin “is”ἔστιν estin “is”

Jew and Gentile are on precisely the same footing; for the same Lord is Lord over all, and is infinitely kind to all who call upon Him for deliverance.

ἐστιν estin “there is”

I ask then, Has God cast off His People? No, indeed. Why, I myself am an Israelite, of the posterity of Abraham and of the tribe of Benjamin.

εἰμί, eimi “am,”

But if it is in His grace that He has selected them, then His choice is no longer determined by human actions. Otherwise grace would be grace no longer.

ἐστὶν estin “is”ἐστὶν estin “is”

But to you Gentiles I say that, since I am an Apostle specially sent to the Gentiles, I take pride in my ministry,

εἰμι eimi “am”

And if some of the branches have been pruned away, and you, although you were but a wild olive, have been grafted in among them and have become a sharer with others in the rich sap of the root of the olive tree,
