Where does the justification for The New Testament doers of the law in Romans 2:13 originate from?

No hurt feelings. It's an online forum. There are no "feelings."
Sock puppets don't bother me.
We need better trolls around here.

call me punch lol, but don't worry I'll come back with judy later 😋

Which means that you do not really want the truth.

Is James talking about being justified by being a doer of the Word? Grabbing verses from here and there without really knowing what justification is all about means going into error.

Are you a troll? I’m beginning to think you must be.

Funny!.... When the video finished, Oliver Anthony was suggested. Rich men north of Richmond. Good song! But there is a line in his song which is very relatable.

Liven in a new world with an old soul.

Obey the words of God is justified.
Obedience.

Paul said we do not void out the law through faith, but we establish the law which means live up to the law.

Which the law is spiritual, holy, just, and good, which are the laws of love, moral laws.

Which the 2 greatest laws are love God, and love people, which love is the fulfilling of the law.

The 10 commandments are laws of love towards God, and people, so they are always to be obeyed, and of course because we confess our sin, and turn away from sin.

The people who obey the laws of love towards people are the people who are right for salvation.

That is why Jesus told the rich man to obey the laws concerning loving people, and he said he did that but He said he lacked one thing which is to sell all he has and give to the poor and then he can inherit salvation.

There are millions of people that are not doers of the law but hold on to worldliness loving the things of the world, and money, and material things which is not love, but they say they are saved by faith so they slack and hold on to sin believing they cannot fall.

I'm surprised y'all are still entertaining this troll.

Good reply.. But those who are fixated on preaching works salvation will lock onto one verse and base their whole theology on that one verse that to them backs up their works salvation mindset and their rejection of the Atonement of the LORD Jesus..

Under the Mosaic Covenant, we should love ourselves as God loves us, so that is also how we should love our neighbors, and that is not different under the New Covenant.

"As a wage" is connected to "earn" and the point is that it was never the case that we are the way to become righteous is the result of having first done works, but rather the only way to become righteous that is testified about in the Law and the Prophets is through faith in Christ (Romans 3:21-22).

I don't see any grounds for interpreting Romans 2:13 as referring to something other than the Law of Moses.

I denied that we can earn our justification even as the result of perfect obedience to the Law and Acts 13:39 denies that we can earn our justification as the result of obedience to the Law of Moses, so I'm not seeing what you think needs to be reconciled.


All throughout the Bible, God wanted His people to repent and to return to obedience to the Mosaic Law and even Christ began his ministry with that Gospel message, so it would be absurd to interpret Galatians 5:4 as Paul warning against doing that and saying that we will be cut off from Christ if we follow Christ. In Psalms 119:29-30, he wanted to put false ways far from him, for God to be gracious to him by teaching him to obey the Mosaic Law, and he chose the way of faith by setting it before him, so this has always been the one and only way of salvation by grace through faith, and it would be also be absurd to interpret this as him wanting God to be gracious to him by teaching him how to fall from grace.

There can be any number of a reason for obeying the Mosaic Law other than in order to earn our justification as the result, especially because it was never given as a means of doing that, so that was never the reason why we should obey it. When someone obeys the Mosaic Law, the significance is not that is part of something that they are required to have done first in order to become justified, but that they are expressing their faith, and it is by that faith that we are justified. The Mosaic Law is God's word and Jesus is God's word made flesh, so he the embodiment of the Mosaic Law expressed by setting a sinless example for us to follow of how to walk in obedience to it, so it is contradictory to think that we should have faith in God's word made flesh, but not in God's word.

Why is the truth so too easily distorted. I mean, so many people make a living out of that capability. Nonetheless, the common denominator that is employed to distort it is also very easily distinguished, and that is fear. So, wherever fear is present, buyer beware.

Fear separated the Israelites from God's presence, a fear masquerading as the fear of God, the one legitimate fear. I'd have to speculate awhile upon exactly what illegitimate fear separated them from His presence, in order to define it correctly, but I just know, call it intuitively, that it was not the actual fear of God.

Why did they not fear God so much as to say, when He said, 'come up,' to obey him but rather said, "we will not come up.'?
