Verse
Romans - ch 2 v 21 - 29
- You therefore who teach another, don't you teach yourself? You who preach that a man shouldn't steal, do you steal?
- You who say a man shouldn't commit adultery. Do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?
- You who glory in the law, through your disobedience of the law do you dishonor God?
- For "the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,"1 just as it is written.
- For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
- If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won't his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision?
- Won't the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfills the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law?
- For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh;
- but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
- Isaiah 52:5; Ezekiel 36:22
