LESSON FOUR:
“THE WAY OF LIFE AND THE WAY OF DEATH”
The gospel (“good news”) now contrasts “the way of
death” against “the way of life.” Read carefully the
account below depicting Chapter Two of Romans. It
makes a vivid contrast between what leads to
IMMORTALITY vs. IMMORALITY.
Jew and Gentile alike face the wrath of God for God
is not a respecter of persons. The Jew does not
believe that. After all they are “the chosen ones.” So
are the Gentiles chosen by God, but both must
choose their destiny.
THE APOSTLE PAUL
“ETERNAL LIFE Rom. 2:7-10 BUT TO THOSE WHO ARE
TO THOSE WHO BY SELF-SEEKING
AND DO NOT
PATIENT CONTINUANCE OBEY THE TRUTH,
IN DOING GOOD
BUT
SEEK FOR
GLORY, HONOR AND OBEY UNRIGHTEOUSNESS-
IMMORTALITY; INDIGNATION AND WRATH,
TRIBULATION AND ANGUISH,
…GLORY, HONOR AND PEACE
ON EVERY SOUL OF MAN
TO EVERYONE WHO WHO DOES EVIL,
WORKS WHAT IS GOOD,
OF THE JEW FIRST
TO THE JEW FIRST AND ALSO OF THE GENTILE;
AND ALSO TO THE GENTILE.
FOR THERE IS NO PARTIALITY WITH GOD”
