Romans 2:13 KJV “(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.”
• Justified, made righteous
• DOERS of the law SHALL BE righteous.
V25 "For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law:"
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE between a man who gets saved, never lives by it, doesn’t read of it, never learns more, and so spends his life in sin, yet we say he goes to heaven (some say, some believe salvation is flimsy), and a man who believes in the Law, walks faithfully to it, worships Hashem and trusts Him, yet he does not go to heaven? YOU DO NOT KNOW GOD if you believe this. And these are the words of Paul, who made sure readers of his letters knew how Jewish he was (Romans 11:1). He said followers of the Law must follow all the Law. And some do, such as it remains.
Jesus followed the Law. Jesus reached out to convict and rescue Paul, a man who misused the Law. Paul said you can be justified by the Law.
What thought goes here next? A history lesson? We’ll summarize it to say we don’t have the Second Century Jewish or Gentile mindset, even if we study hard and try to come up with it. In short, God did not want the Gentiles to replace the Jews. Paul said this, too.
“Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.” (Romans 11:18)
We support Israel, yet we send Jews to hell. We don’t know anything.
What Paul said in his letters was the Law is fulfilled. There’s no need to live by the Law. Then he pointed out evil is on both sides – Gentile and Jew. Gentiles including all others who aren’t Jewish. He gave the freedom of having trust in Jesus Christ, pointed to Him as their Messiah and our Savior, then made the Romans 2:3 remark.
God is mercy. Jesus is a Jew, even greater, THE KING OF THE JEWS. Would the King of the Jews condemn His own people? Or honor their trust? Which is it? I’ll tell you the answer, but most will shoot darts. So I’ll leave you here with this.
