Romans 2:4-13

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Romans 2:4-13

4Or do you disregard the riches of His kindness, tolerance, and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness leads you to repentance?
5But because of your hard and unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed.
6God “will repay each one according to his deeds.”
7To those who by perseverance in doing good seek glory, honor, and immortality, He will give eternal life.
8But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow wickedness, there will be wrath and anger.
9There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil, first for the Jew, then for the Greek;
10but glory, honor, and peace for everyone who does good, first for the Jew, then for the Greek.
11For God does not show favoritism.
12All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law.
13For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but it is the doers of the law who will be declared righteous.
