Truly, but they are not of different times.

Paul was speaking to out of covenant Hebrews of the dispersion in Italy.

There is absolutely nothing in any part of the Word of Yehova that provides for any other path to the righteousness required for entry to the wedding feast than that which was provided to All of Adam's seed: Torah.

Grace is not in itself a source of righteousness. It is merely the available forgiveness for confessed, repented sins offered only to those that seek righteousness in his Torah.

That is precisely what Paul was presenting in Romans 2.

Romans 2:

[13] (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
[14] For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
[15] Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another

As Yeshua told his disciples: “He that endures to the end, the same shall be saved.”

I find interesting the parts of the word that you carefully omit when you post your tiny sound bites!

Those are the parts of the word that demolish the Grace Lie completely
