Intro I’m going to apologize now. I tried to cut this sermon down but Revelation is literally about Salvation and Judgment. G.K.

Summary: Romans 2:1-5 I know what you might be thinking. Paul does too... Most likely he’s talking to the Jew here (vv. 9-13, 17). But it could be an example of any moral person’s mindset.
