Romans 2:23-29

Living_Oracles(i) 23 You who boast in the law; by the breaking of the law, do you dishonor God? 24 For it is written, "The name of God is evil spoken of among the Gentiles, through you." 25 Now circumcision indeed profits, if you practice law; but if you be a transgressor of law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. 26 And if the uncircumcision keep the precepts of the law, will not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? 27 And will not the uncircumcision which by nature fulfills the law, condemn you, a transgressor of law, though in possession of the scriptures and circumcision? 28 For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh: 29 but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
