Gleanings from Romans 2

"The character of the works shows the amount of faith in Christ. 

A simple profession will not do. "

Thinkest thou, O man, that judgest them which do such things,

and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?" God does not respect our person or profession. 

We may call ourselves Christians, and pretend to kept the law, and pity the poor heathen, but God classes all together, who fail to have good works. 

As many as have sinned without law shall also perish without the law; and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law." Romans 2:12. 

This with the verses following shows that the law is the standard by which every man in the world will be judged." 

E.J. Waggoner
