## Question: Why does God harden hearts?
### Passage
I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not be conceited: A hardening in part has come to Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written:
- “The Deliverer will come from Zion;
- He will remove godlessness from Jacob.
- And this is My covenant with them
- when I take away their sins.”
[[Romans_11|Romans 11.25-27 (BSB)]]
