The Day Of Reckoning Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Jul 15, 2022

In Romans 2:1-5, the Apostle Paul presents three principles by which God will judge sinful humanity on The Day of Reckoning. He does so on the basis of: 1) Knowledge (Romans 2:1), 2) Truth (Romans 2:2–3), and 3) Guilt (Romans 2:4–5).

For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. 2 We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. 3 Do you suppose, O ...read more

She did that for the Lord! What an example she is to ...read more
