Romans:2:17-29
lont@Romans:2:17 @ If, now, you are called a Jew, and rest in the law, and boast in God,
lont@Romans:2:18 @ and know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed by the law;
lont@Romans:2:19 @ and boast that you yourselves are a guide of the blind, a light of them who are in darkness,
lont@Romans:2:20 @ and instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, having the representation of knowledge and of truth in the law:
lont@Romans:2:21 @ you, then, who teach another; do you not teach yourself? You who proclaim, Do not steal; do you steal?
lont@Romans:2:22 @ You who command, Do not commit adultery; do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols; do you rob temples?
lont@Romans:2:23 @ You who boast in the law; by the breaking of the law, do you dishonor God?
lont@Romans:2:24 @ «For it is written,» 'The name of God is evil spoken of among the Gentiles, through you.'
lont@Romans:2:25 @ Now circumcision indeed profits, if you practice law; but if you be a transgressor of law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
lont@Romans:2:26 @ And if the uncircumcision keep the precepts of the law, will not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
lont@Romans:2:27 @ And will not the uncircumcision which by nature fulfills the law, condemn you, a transgressor of law, though in possession of the scriptures and circumcision?
lont@Romans:2:28 @ For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh:
lont@Romans:2:29 @ but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
