Romans 11:16-18

16For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.

17And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,

18do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.
