Send us a textEpisode Title: Will Being Religious Make You Right with God?Scripture: Romans 2:17-29Episode Summary:When people confront the reality that they will one day stand before God, they often seek justification through their religious identity. Many assume that participating in religious practices—such as baptism, communion, or church attendance—earns them a special standing before God. But does outward religiosity truly make someone right with Him?In Romans 2:17-29, Paul directly challenges the false security of religious privilege. He speaks to the Jews of his day, but his words extend to anyone who believes religious identity or external rituals guarantee righteousness. Paul dismantles this assumption in three key ways:The Privileges of the Jewish People (Romans 2:17-20) – They had the law, knowledge of God's will, and saw themselves as guides and teachers of the blind.The Reality of Their Actions (Romans 2:21-24) – They taught others but failed to obey the law themselves, leading to hypocrisy and dishonoring God.A Challenge to Their Assumptions About Circumcision and True Identity (Romans 2:25-29) – Paul declares that true righteousness is a matter of the heart, not external rituals.Paul's message is clear: it is not religious rituals, ceremonies, or outward symbols that make one right with God—it is a transformed heart and genuine faith that count.Key Takeaways:Outward religious practices do not justify a person before God.True righteousness is an inward transformation by the Spirit.Religious hypocrisy leads to dishonoring God rather than glorifying Him.Faith and obedience from the heart matter more than external religious labels.Join us as we explore how Paul's message applies not only to the first-century but to all who seek to understand what it truly means to be right with God.Support the showFor an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com
Send us a textPlease Note: This is a continuation of yesterdays longer two part episode. Episode Title: Self-Righteousness and The Wrath of God - Part Two Scripture: Romans 2:1-16In this episode, I continue my deep dive into Paul's teachings on divine judgment and wrath. I explore the distinction between present and future wrath and the impartiality of God's judgment. The role of works—not as a means of salvation, but as evidence of true faith.Paul makes it clear that God's judgment is based on truth, reality, and our response to the light we've received. No one will escape His justice, but through Christ, there is hope. The kindness of God leads us to repentance, and true faith in Him transforms how we live.Join us as we unpack this amazing but difficult passage and its implications for our daily walk with God.
Send us a textWelcome'Welcome back to our ongoing series exploring the Book of Romans. In this episode, we turn our attention to Romans 2:1-16, where Paul shifts his focus from the obvious sins of the Gentile world to a more insidious problem—self-righteousness. Paul directly challenges those who consider themselves morally superior, warning that no one escapes God's judgment by comparing themselves to others. Instead, divine judgment is based on truth, works, and knowledge, leaving no room for excuses.Key Themes DiscussedThe Universal Nature of SinIn Romans 1, Paul established that all people are unrighteous before God.Romans 2 confronts those who assume they are exempt from judgment because of their religious or moral standing.The self-righteous individual, who looks down on others, is still without excuse.God's Judgment is Based on Truth (Romans 2:2-5)God does not judge based on appearances or reputation but on reality.Many people assume they are safe because of their perceived moral superiority.Paul warns against taking God's patience as a sign of His approval.God's Judgment is According to Works (Romans 2:6-11)Paul affirms that God “will repay each person according to what they have done.”Those who persist in good will receive eternal life, while those who reject truth will face wrath.This judgment is impartial—both Jews and Gentiles are accountable.God's Judgment is According to Knowledge (Romans 2:12-16)Those who sin without the Law will perish apart from it; those who sin under the Law will be judged by it.Paul highlights that even those without direct revelation have an internal moral compass, evidenced by their conscience.Ultimately, God will judge all people through Jesus Christ.The Wrath of GodPaul's teaching on divine wrath emphasizes that judgment is not arbitrary but the inevitable outcome of a life lived in rebellion against God. Throughout Scripture, God's wrath is seen as a necessary consequence of rejecting His holiness and righteousness.Old Testament Context: God's wrath was often tied to covenant violations and the oppression of Israel.Prophetic Warnings: The Day of the Lord was seen as a climactic moment of divine judgment.New Testament Perspective: Paul speaks of God's wrath as both a present reality and a future certainty.ConclusionSelf-righteousness blinds people to their need for God's grace. Paul dismantles the false security of those who judge others while ignoring their own sin. The message of Romans 2 is clear: no one is exempt from judgment, and all must seek repentance.Thank you for joining us for this episode.

Pastor Travis McGowen preached from Romans 2:1-16 in our series “Saved.”” He said the weight of our problems pulls us towards a unified center. Lector: Barbara Carr
True faith extends far beyond religious symbols and rituals, focusing instead on genuine heart transformation. While physical markers of faith can serve as meaningful reminders, they should never replace authentic belief and a living relationship with God. The path to salvation comes through grace rather than human works, requiring only sincere repentance and faith in Christ. This internal transformation, powered by the Holy Spirit, naturally produces external evidence of faith while keeping the focus on God's approval rather than human praise.
God's Word holds transformative power when approached with genuine humility and submission. It serves as our guide for truth, wisdom, and understanding God's will. However, this knowledge comes with great responsibility - we must live what we learn with integrity. When we fail to align our actions with biblical truth, we risk becoming hypocritical and diminishing our witness. The key is maintaining consistency between our knowledge of Scripture and our daily lives.
Pastor Gabriel Hughes preaches from Romans 2:6-11 where we hear that if we keep the law, we will live; the trouble is that we cannot keep the law, which is why we need a Savior. Visit providencecasagrande.com for more info about our church!

Pastor Josiah Graves continues our Romans sermon series with a message titled "God is After Your Heart" (Romans 2:17-29).
Pastor Ed Rea Romans 2:1-16 | God Leads Us to Repentance God's kindness, patience, and mercy are meant to lead us to repentance, not judgment. In Romans 2, Paul warns against hypocrisy and self-righteousness, reminding us that no one is without sin—not even the most moral or religious among us. True transformation comes not from external actions but from a heart surrendered to God. Trusting in our own goodness will always fall short, instead, we need God's grace and forgiveness. His invitation to repentance and salvation is open to all. Outline 1) Hypocritical Judgement: verses 1-4 2) No Partiality: verses 5-11 3) Guilt With or Without Law: verses 12-16 Packinghouse's Sunday morning worship service from March 2, 2025.

Dr. David B. McWilliams - March 2, 2025
What does it mean when your pastor opens a sermon with "This church is full of hypocrites"? In this powerful exploration of Romans 2:1-11, we confront the uncomfortable reality that hypocrisy lurks in all our hearts – but what happens when that hypocrisy evolves into dangerous self-righteousness?The message delivers a sobering wake-up call about the ways we might be trusting in our own goodness rather than Christ's finished work. A shocking statistic reveals that while 65% of American adults claim Christianity, only 33% believe salvation comes through confession of sin and faith in Jesus as Savior. This gap exposes a critical truth: many who consider themselves Christians are actually trusting in something other than Christ."You can be lost in your badness, but you can also be lost in your goodness," the pastor declares, challenging listeners to examine what they're truly relying on for salvation. Are we counting on church attendance, moral behavior, or family heritage rather than the cross? The sermon tackles the seeming contradiction between salvation by grace and judgment according to works with theological clarity that points to Christ's righteousness as our only hope.Using the vivid metaphor of spiritual scaffolding – our attempts to build our way to God through good works – the message concludes with Paul's sledgehammer of truth demolishing our self-righteous structures. When our efforts crumble, we discover the cross of Christ amid the rubble, offering the only path to true salvation. This sermon will challenge your assumptions, confront your religious self-deception, and lead you back to the freeing truth that salvation comes entirely through Christ's work, not your own.
