  • Romans: Live by Faith - Trapped | Romans | Todd Malone

    Paul has shown that neither Jews nor Gentiles can achieve righteousness through their own efforts. In the process, he removes the main ways we downplay our sin or overstate our righteousness. In today’s passage, Paul takes the last step: showing that every individual is by nature under the power of sin.

  • Romans: Live by Faith | Romans 2:1-16 | Todd Malone

    Paul established in chapter 1 that our idolatry deserves God's wrath. Chapter 2 opens by building on that theme. God will impartially judge every person for their unrighteousness.

    1. The Coming Judgment [1-6]
    2. The Impartial Judge [7-11]
    3. The Universal Standard [12-16]
    4. The Point: Cultural religion does not save from God's impartial judgment.
