Pero si tù, que llevas el nombre de judìo y te apoyas en la ley; que te glorìas en Dios,
Romans 2:17 - The Message
If youre brought up Jewish, dont assume that you can lean back in the arms of your religion and take it easy, feeling smug because youre an insider to Gods revelation, a connoisseur of the best things of God, informed on the latest doctrines! I have a special word of caution for you who are sure that you have it all together yourselves and, because you know Gods revealed Word inside and out, feel qualified to guide others through their blind alleys and dark nights and confused emotions to God. While you are guiding others, who is going to guide you? Im quite serious. While preaching "Dont steal!" are you going to rob people blind? Who would suspect you? The same with adultery. The same with idolatry. You can get by with almost anything if you front it with eloquent talk about God and his law. The line from Scripture, "Its because of you Jews that the outsiders are down on God," shows its an old problem that isnt going to go away.
