*/GOD’S DIVINE STANDARDS/*
*Romans 2:1-16*
The theme of Romans is in */Romans 1:16-17/* – READ
A righteous person continues to live by faith, and in so doing grows from one level of
maturity to another.
In this way, we the believer progress along the path of righteousness
to live a rich and full spiritual life.
Sounds easy don’t it?
Turn to */Romans 2:1-16/*
God will judge us by */3 DIVINE STANDARDS/* (verses 1-16)
*/Divine Standard/*
*/ /*
*/1.
Truthfulness – 2:1-4 READ/*
Who ever we are or what ever denomination we attend.
We will */ALL/* be judged the same.
There are many different beliefs:
Some don’t believe that the Spiritual Gifts are for today.
Some believe we are not to eat meat.
Some believe once saved always saved.
Some believe we are to pray to saints.
Some believe that Saturday is the day to worship the Lord.
Some believe that Sunday is the day to worship the Lord.
Some believe that we can earn or work our way to Heaven.
God will judge us by His */DIVINE STANDARDS/*,
no matter whom we are or what we believe.
God’s */DIVINE STANDARDS/* are absolute and infinite, condemning every person.
The first divine standard of judgment is */TRUTH./*
Nowhere in Scripture is God identified as */“TRUTH.”/*
*/John 4:24/* says, He is as */“SPIRIT” /*
*/I John 1:5/* says, He is as */“LIGHT”/*
And */I John 4:8 and 4:16/* say He is as “*/LOVE”/*
But */Psalm 31:5/* and */Isaiah 65:16/* calls Him */“THE GOD OF TRUTH” /*
*/TRUTH/* – complete, never-ending */TRUTH/*
is undeniably one of God’s important qualities.
As a result when */GOD’S JUDGMENT/*
of people is declared to be based on */TRUTH,/*
*/ /*no escape from that judgment is possible for */ANYONE./*
*/Romans 2:1/* says */ALL/* are without */EXCUSE/* and
and */ALL/* are without */ESCAPE./*
We may be moral and may even judge our equals as totally
trapped in an immoral lifestyle,
but yet we are judged by God because we do the same thing.
By not exacting His divine penalty on sinful humanity immediately,
God is displaying the riches of His kindness,
tolerance,
and patience.
Not realizing God’s purpose, we show contempt for God’s qualities and actions.
We know of God’s Being through natural revelation,
but we do not know the purpose of His kindness,
tolerance,
and patience.
*/Divine Standard /*
*/2.
Impartiality of His Fairness – 2:5-11 READ/*
Why are people ignorant of God’s intention to be kind?
Why do they despise it?
It is because of their stubbornness or hardness and their unrepentant hearts.
God’s anger against people’s sins is being stored up like a great lake
until the day when it will all be poured out
in His righteous judgment.
(Imagine the Nushegak River being damned up for years and years,
than that damn breaking.)
On that day God will give to each of us according to what we have done.
Remember that is from the time we surrender to Jesus and allow Him into our life
and heart.
So, everything I have done since Dec 4, 1996 I will be judged on.
Everything we did before we surrendered to Jesus is forgotten by God,
It is in the sea of Forgetfulness.
God’s judging will be based on His */STANDARD/* of */TRUTH/*
*/ /*and it will be */FAIR./*
God will give */ETERNAL/* life to us who are determined to live by His Word and,
keep seeking */GLORY, HONOR/*, and */EVER LASTING LIFE/*.
On the other hand fury and anger will be the cost of the selfish,
who keep on disobeying the */TRUTH/* and following evil.
Each one who does evil will receive trouble and suffering,
while each one who does lives by His Word will have
*/GLORY, HONOR/* and */PEACE./*
This just reward by God is without regard to nationality, color or cultural background
or any other consideration except what each person has done.
Our ordinary conduct,
whether good or evil,
reveals the condition of our heart.
*/ETERNAL/* life is not rewarded for good living;
that would contradict many others Scriptures which clearly state
that salvation is not by works,
but is by God’s */GRACE/* to those of us that */BELIEVE./*
Our doing good shows that our heart is regenerated.
We will be redeemed by God and have */ETERNAL/* life.
Equally those who continue to do evil and reject the */TRUTH/* shows that they are not
repentant,
and therefore will be an object of God’s anger.
The statement */“first for the Jew, then for the Gentile”/*
does not imply special kindness for Jews.
Instead, in the light of the */DIVINE STANDARD/* of */FAIRNESS/*,
it stresses that the entire human race is dealt with by God.
*/Divine Standard/*
*/3.
Jesus Christ – 2:12-16 READ/*
God’s fairness in judgment is also seen in the fact that
He will deal with us in accordance with the indulgence in which we live.
*/John 1:17 says, “The Law was given through Moses.”/*
This marks the beginning of the dispensation of Laws
