No Excuse—Romans 2:1

No Excuse—Romans 2:1

"You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things" (Romans 2:1)

Recently, my cousin commented that she had a hard time believing I struggle with the same sins she does because I have been a Christian for a long time. In her mind, my relationship with God somehow makes me more holy and less likely to sin. Sometimes, the longer we are believers, the easier it is to adopt this attitude and start judging others by comparing them to ourselves.


When we judge others, we prove that we have awareness of right from wrong and this knowledge makes us liable for our actions.
 

At the end of Romans 1, Paul is building a case to prove the Gentiles (those outside of God’s Covenant people) were guilty before God because of their refusal to acknowledge Him. In this chapter, he turns the table and focuses on the Jews. The Jews were God’s special people, and because of this relationship, they thought had the right to judge and condemn others. Paul is showing them that they are just as guilty, if not guiltier, than the Gentiles. Paul’s assertion is that the Jews had no right to pass judgment on others because they were just as guilty of exactly the same things.

Guilty By Association—Romans 1:32

Guilty By Association—Romans 1:32

"Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them" (Romans 1:32)

Have you ever been guilty by association? I remember in high school our teacher gave us a work day but warned that talking during class would get us kicked out for the next two periods. So for the next two days, while I was sitting in the library, I remembered evaluating my choice of who I sat with, and I thought to myself, perhaps I haven’t chosen very wisely.


Humanity blatantly does things that go against God.
 

Although I wasn’t the instigator, I participated and by that gave my approval to it. When the teacher followed through with the punishment, I was both guilty of disobedience and guilty by association. One could debate that giving approval to sin is just as contemptible as participating in it.
