Romans 11:4-6
Living Bible
4 And do you remember how God replied? God said, “No, you are not the only one left. I have seven thousand others besides you who still love me and have not bowed down to idols!”[a]
5 It is the same today. Not all the Jews have turned away from God; there are a few being saved as a result of God’s kindness in choosing them. 6 And if it is by God’s kindness, then it is not by their being good enough. For in that case the free gift would no longer be free—it isn’t free when it is earned.

4 And what was God’s answer to him? “I have reserved for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”[a](A) 5 So too, at the present time there is a remnant(B) chosen by grace.(C) 6 And if by grace, then it cannot be based on works;(D) if it were, grace would no longer be grace.
