Romans 2 : 25 - 29
Chapter 2
| 25 | For circumcision is indeed profitable if you keep the law; but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
|
| 26 | Therefore, if an uncircumcised man keeps the righteous requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision?
|
| 27 | And will not the physically uncircumcised, if he fulfills the law, judge you who, even with your written code and circumcision, are a transgressor of the law?
|
| 28 | For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh;
|
| 29 | but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God.
|
The grace of God the Father be with you all.
Amen.
