Romans 2:1-29

• There is no defense against judging others.
• God is kind, tolerant and patient with us.
• We are storing up terrible punishment for ourselves when we judge others.
• Dear friends, if we deliberately continue sinning after we have received a full knowledge of the truth, there is no other sacrifice that will cover these  sins.  There will be   nothing to look   forward to but the terrible expectation of God's judgment and  the raging  fire that will consume His  enemies. Hebrews 10:29-30
• God shows no partiality  to anyone.
