Confidence In Our Religious Performance Only Further Reveals Our Sinful Hearts. - Romans 2:17-3:8

"How do you know you are saved?" Whatever you say, the question reveals what gives you confidence in your salvation. The Apostle Paul recognizes that the Jews might be tempted to find false confidence in their identity as God's chosen people. He reminds them that confidence in religious performance only reveals how far their hearts are from God. Our hearts are prone to the same false confidence.
