WILL ALL OF ISRAEL BE SAVED?
Romans 11:26. And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: (KJV)

Note: The assumption of contradiction is that it's clear that not all Israelites will be saved.

It depends on who Paul meant by "Israel".  Did he mean all who live in that land?  Of course not.  In fact, he even said so himself in Romans 9:6 which says, "Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel" (KJV)  Paul is using "Israel" to refer to the body of believers.  Not a contradiction.
