February 15th 2026 – Glory or Wrath – Romans 2:1-11 by Exchange Church Shepparton
On this episode of Day by Day our Journey Through Romans, Dr. Clif emphasizes that having spiritual privileges increases our responsibility to live out our faith, warning that simply being close to spiritual truth without genuine repentance and action can actually become a spiritual liability.

In this episode, Pastor Daniel and Pastor Ben discuss the sermon on Romans 2:6-11, "The Impartial Judge, Part 1".
Pastor Daniel teaches that as the storm of God's wrath and the peace of His salvation approach, let each of us ensure we are sheltered in Christ.
Romans 2 is a sobering reminder of the reality of God's judgment and our inability to keep God's Law perfectly. God's judgment is not like a human courtroom or judge. God knows everything, even our thoughts. God judges perfectly and He will not give preference or deference to anyone. These truths are humbling and they should grab our attention but they should also remind us of Jesus. Jesus is the only person in the history of mankind to actually keep God's Law. Jesus said in Matthew 5:17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.” Jesus Christ and His perfect righteousness is the only way anyone will escape God's coming judgment.Take-Home Question: What will be your defense on Judgment Day?”- Things that will not save you: - “Who you are” will not save you (11) - Your track record will not save you (12-13) - Ignorance will not save you (14-15) - Hiding your sin will not save you (16)- God takes sin seriously — some history- God's wrath is avoidable - 2 Peter 3:9 - Romans 10:13 - 1 Thessalonians 1:10 - Revelation 20:12
In Romans 2, the Apostle Paul asks a confronting question: based on what does God judge a person? In this message, we explore God's objective moral standard and why both religious and irreligious people are accountable before Him. Paul shows that while some have the written law, others have the law written on their hearts through conscience, and yet no one lives up to the standard they know. This passage exposes the danger of moral hypocrisy and false confidence in religious symbols, and it dismantles the idea that outward performance can save us. Romans 2 leads us to a clear verdict and points us to our only real hope: not moral effort, but redemption through Jesus Christ. In this message, you'll learn: - What standard God actually uses to judge every person - Why conscience means no one is without moral knowledge - How religious effort can create false confidence and hypocrisy - Why outward signs and performance can't save - Where real hope and redemption are found

After describing the condition of humanity outside those who we would consider believers, Paul will now address the problems with us–people who consider themselves His. In verses 1-16 he will address critical moralizers and in verses 17-29 he will address self-confident Jews.
This sermon was preached by Tom Wilkins on February 8th, 2026.
Pastor Eric Zellner continues preaching through the book of Romans. In this section, we see the gospel dismantle spiritual pride built on moralism, which opens the door to good news--the "Critical Moralizer" needs a Savior.
Jon Paul, Senior Pastor
The Gospel is OFFENSIVE. Why? It's equal. It's honest. It's definitive. In this world and generation, none of these words are comfortable but convicting. God did not bring His Word to please us but to give us TRUTH.

Pastor Daniel preaches that the moralist judges by a standard he cannot meet and then falls under a condemnation he cannot escape.
We love it when people speak the truth about what we align with. Whether it be our favorite sports team, political affiliations, our take on pop culture drama—when someone says something we align and agree with, we love to champion that. In the study of Romans so far, there have been many truths preached that many people in our church align and identify with, therefore, love and feel great about what is being preached. The danger is this: there are some who sit in this church week after week and think only about how horrible the world is, how awful other people are, or how depraved our culture is, all the while thinking that they are absolutely fine, in no danger at all, and no need of self-evaluation. If you are that person—this message is for you. Coming off the heels of seeing how the wrath of God is revealed against all unrighteousness, Paul now turns his attention to the individual: “Therefore, you have no excuse, O man” (Romans 2:1). These verses expose how we are all under the righteous judgment of God outside of Christ. May we take heed of the exposing nature of these verses and “not neglect so great a salvation” (Hebrews 2:3). BIG IDEA: I can't fool God.- How I Try to Fool God (1-5)- Hypocrisy (1-3)- Presuming on God's Kindness (4)- Hardness of Heart (5)- Two Eternal Paths (6-11)Luke 5:32 : “I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance.”

This week's message reminded us that the greatest battles we face aren't always external. Often, the battlefield is the mind. Romans 12:1–2 calls us to resist conforming to the patterns of this world and instead be transformed by the renewing of our minds. We were challenged to recognize that not every thought deserves agreement, that we are not defined by our strongest thoughts. Through Christ, we can take thoughts captive, identify lies, and replace them with truth. God desires dominion over every area of our lives, including how we think. When we invite Him into the process, we begin to walk in clarity, freedom, and victory. Proving what is the good, acceptable, and the perfect will of God. What's the loudest thought in your head right now? And what does God say about that? Missed last night's message?

Pastor Mac provides an expositional style teaching of Romans CH 2:17-24 looking into what the word of God expresses as it pertains to being a Jew. This teaching will expound on each verse utilizing the text in order to see how many of the Jews perceived themselves in the eyes of God that correlates to the Church today. We will see how being overconfident in self-righteousness leads to spiritual delusion that causes blind spots to sin, in the hopes to expose potential symptoms while providing spiritual solutions to prevent the pride of religion from becoming a reality.

Pastor Mac provides an expositional style teaching of Romans CH 2:25-29 by expounding on each verse as we continue to witness the Apostle Paul challenge his Jewish brethren, now in the area of circumcision. We will look into the history of circumcision from a biblical perspective in order to see the true meaning behind being circumcised, and how spiritual aspects of this relate to being baptized. In addition, we will examine a few ways to guard ourselves against the pride of religion, in the hopes to embrace a transformative belief by being circumcised in the heart.Social MediaProphecy Website: http://JDFarag.orgMobile & TV Apps: https://subsplash.com/calvarychapelkaneohe/appChurch Website: http://www.calvarychapelkaneohe.comX: https://x.com/JDFaragFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/JDFaragInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/JDFarag

Pastor Mac provides an expositional style teaching of Romans CH 2:4-11 looking into how the deeds of man no matter how moral or law abiding will never measure up to the righteousness of God. This teaching will take a close look at verse 7 in order to refute a works-based salvation, as well examine two common views that remove potential contradictions. In addition, we will show how the Apostle Paul continues to build a case that will demonstrate that the deeds of man lead to condemnation, absent acknowledging and accepting the ultimate deed of the Son of Man, Jesus Christ.

Pastor Marshall Ochs | January 11, 2026In this message, Pastor Marshall teaches from Romans 2. In this chapter, Paul uses a toll called a diatribe to confront religious self-righteousness, showing that moral superiority, possession of the law, or outward signs like circumcision do not exempt anyone from God's judgment. He argues that God shows no partiality. Our relationship with God is not based on ceremonies, activities, or lineage. It is rooted in faith and proved with Spirit-led obedience. Ultimately, Romans 2 levels everyone, revealing equal need for God and emphasizing that faith is proven by a transformed heart and life.

Pastor Mac provides an expositional style teaching of Romans CH 2:1-4 by expounding on each verse looking into the impartiality of God as it pertains to the judgment between those considered barbarians, and those considered intellectuals. In addition, we will examine how we as Christians are to judge righteous judgment without becoming judgmental in a non-biblical way. Also, we will see how within the just judgment of God, it ultimately displays the amazing goodness of God, that brings one to repentance in order to accept the amazing love of God.
