RSV Romans 2:14 When Gentiles...St. Paul says this:<br /><br />RSV Romans 2:14 When Gentiles who have not the law do by nature what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or perhaps excuse them 16 on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.<br /><br />and he said:<br /><br />RSV 1 Corinthians 5:12 For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge?<br /><br />St. Paul (I believe) is saying in these two places that the judgement of those outside the church is up to God and that he is just. He said that those Gentiles will be judged according to their conscience and some will be excused on the day of judgement. But that judgement is not up to us.Daniel Eganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04784129033195345477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4804111164949504716.post-35558549804562519802013-04-25T10:20:48.245-07:002013-04-25T10:20:48.245-07:00Good article.
