Romans was written to the Saints which were Jews and God fearing Greeks (Gentiles) and Paul wanted them to be doers of the law and not just hearers. Loving others would fulfill the law.

@@ladyjoy6868Amen!! A good thing to understand is what group of gentiles were sent salvation in Acts 28:28. Were the Ephesians heirs according to the promise??? Nope. Ephesians 2 says otherwise. If we aren't God fearing Jews or Greeks that blessed Israel and worked righteousness, then Mid Acts doctrine is off and we have been lied to. We can't be Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise, but strangers like Ephesians says. So we need to ask ourselves, where do we fit into the Bible?

@@homemakercalling1217 Thank you for your reply, but I now have another question: What do you mean saved gentiles are not heirs to the promise? Paul wrote: Galatians 3:26-29 King James Version 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. 👇It seems to me Ephesians 2:13-19 confirms what Paul taught in Galatians 3. That as members of the BOC we are heirs just like believing Jews.... Where I am seeing this wrong? Ephesians 2:11-21 King James Version 11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: 13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. 14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. 18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. 19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; 21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

@@joelpelton7027 And thank you for your reply... Galatians said their is neither Jew nor Greek. Do you believe that Paul's is talking to the same group of gentiles in Ephesians and Galatians? The Galatians are heirs according to the promise and Abraham's seed. Ephesians says we are strangers from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise. This would mean we can't be Abraham's seed.

@@homemakercalling1217 Interesting... are you saying their are different kinds of gentile believers in the BOC? Some being heirs to the promise and some being strangers from the covenants?
