Spiritual Advantages, Not Saving Ordinances


A sermon on Romans 2:25-3:4.  In this text Paul deals with people's tendency to overreact.  Is there an advantage to Paul's readers being Jewish?  Does our unfaithfulness call into question the power and purpose of God's Word and His faithfulness?  How can God condemn sinners if their sin (by contrast) helps people see His holiness all the more clearly?  Should we do evil if good is the result? Psalm 51:1-12 Galatians 2:17-21
