Romans 2:1 - 2:10
RomansSteve Gregg
The second chapter of Romans continues the previous chapter's description of a sinful society, establishing universal guilt for both Jews and Gentiles. The concept of Gentile guilt is controversial, and instead, Paul focuses on establishing Jewish guilt, bringing Jewish listeners to the realization that they are no better than Gentiles. God's justice and judgment are emphasized, with the understanding that God gives people the opportunity to repent before judging them. Believing in Jesus is important, but faith without works is dead.
