Romans 2:
Do not judge others because
we are all guilty of something, but God's judgment against those who ignore his
existence and ways are based on truth. Humans are intentionally stubborn
and unrepentant. They do not know that God's patience for them is for their time to
repent. All those who keep doing what is right by God's laws will be glorified,
honored, and have immortality. Those under the law will be judged under
the law, but those outside of the law will not be judged by the law. The
Gentiles will be judge outside of the law by their faith in God in their hearts.
Those who have the law (the Jews), but break a law are still law breakers and
are uncircumcised, even if they are. Those without the law, but act as if
they have the law, will be justified as if they had the law and will be
considered circumcised, even if there were not. So the law was just to
guide, but it is totally insignificant to the faith and justification in God. A
man is not a Jew just because he is circumcised physically or has the Law of
Moses, but rather, because he is circumcised in the heart and has the Spirit to
follow God. This is the deference between the old Jew (Judaism) and the
new Jew (Christianity).

Romans 3:
There is no advantage of
being a Jew to God. Circumcision and the Laws of Moses are meaningless
(one filled with God's Spirit lives out the law automatically in God's grace and
forgiveness). The
condemnation for those who believe that their waywardness justifies the
existence of God and so therefore should not be judge by God is totally
deserved. No Jew or Gentile is righteous because all have turned away from God
with their eyes, mouth, minds, actions, hands, and justification for war.
The law only justifies us as sinful and as guilty. The only righteousness
that is from God is through faith in Jesus Christ facilitated by God's Spirit. God
presented Jesus as a sacrifice of atonement to show his justice and to
justify those who have faith in his blood (resurrection of the dead). Faith
through the guidance of God's Spirit is superior to observing the law as a
lawbreaker (imperfect). The Law of Moses is not nullified, but the Spirit
of God that dwells in those that have faith in the resurrection of the dead of
Jesus uphold the law automatically. Those who still break the law
freely do not have the Spirit of God (godly conscience).
Romans 4:
Abraham was righteous not
by the works of following the law, but by faith in believing God. Even
David talked about blessed people who are justified by God without their works
and their sins are ignored by God. Abrahams was credited as righteous
before circumcision (even before Moses). Judaism is dead; God is the
father of the faithful and believers in Jesus Christ - Christians are the NEW
Jews ONLY by faith in the resurrection of the dead.
