Contributed by Joshua Blackmon on Feb 28, 2026

Not By Might But By My Spirit

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Nov 8, 2025

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).

Romans 2:1–5. Therefore, you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. 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
