For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile - the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
How, then, can they call
on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe
in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear
without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach
unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"
But not all the Israelites accepted the good news. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our message?" Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.
