Romans

Romans 2:4–7

⁴Or do you disregard the riches of His kindness, tolerance, and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness leads you to repentance?

⁵But because of your hard and unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed. ⁶God “will repay each one according to his deeds.”^a ⁷To those who by perseverance in doing good seek glory, honor, and immortality, He will give eternal life.
