13. For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.Romans 2:13Paul's letter is to Jews and Gentiles in Rome. There is no partiality of persons with God. Rabbis taught that God would judge Jews differently than Gentiles.All will be judged by their sin, unless they obey Christ.Today's verse is clear: if you hear the word of God but it does not change you, you are headed for destruction.It is those that hear the word of God and do as it says.Matthew 7:21, Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.If we refuse:Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.Help us, Lord Jesus, to obey and live for You. Amen.
