David：Whitewashed Walls

经文：罗马书 romans 2:17-29,3:1-8

[Romans 2:17] Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,

[Romans 2:18] And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;

[Romans 2:19] And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,

[Romans 2:20] An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.

[Romans 2:21] Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

[Romans 2:22] Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?

[Romans 2:23] Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?

[Romans 2:24] For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

[Romans 2:25] For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.

[Romans 2:26] Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

[Romans 2:27] And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?

[Romans 2:28] For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

[Romans 2:29] But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

[Romans 3:1] What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?

[Romans 3:2] Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.

[Romans 3:3] For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?

[Romans 3:4] God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

[Romans 3:5] But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)

[Romans 3:6] God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?

[Romans 3:7] For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?

[Romans 3:8] And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
