So when you, O man, pass judgment on others, yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God’s judgment? Don’t you see how wonderfully kind, tolerant, and patient God is with you? Does this mean nothing to you? Can’t you see that his kindness is intended to turn you from your sin? Romans 2

My brothers and sisters in Christ, Scripture reminds us in Romans chapter two, that, if we are stubborn and refuse to turn from our sins, we are storing up terrible punishment for ourselves, for a day of anger is coming, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed. God will repay each person according to what they have done. He will give eternal life to those who keep on doing good, seeking after the glory and honor and immortality that God offers. But he will pour out his anger and wrath on those who live for themselves, who refuse to obey the truth and instead live lives of wickedness.
