Bible Question: Is this verse saying that regardless of the religion of the person, whoever does what is written in it will be saved? (For the complete idea maybe the preceding verse should be added:Romans 2:6-7 6 He will render to each one according to his works: 7 to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; ). |
Bible Answer: The conscience is a gift from God, to stop us from causing damage to ourselves. It does not cause salvation, which is in none other than Jesus Christ. The Bible explains that our conscience can bring conviction to us in John 8: 9 “And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience ...” It is able to bear witness: Romans 2: 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.” Romans 9: 1 “My conscience also bearing me witness ...” And also used in persuasion. 2 Corinthians 5: 11 “Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.” Our conscience has been called a synonym for the Holy Spirit in our lives, (this point is very debatable, but that is a whole new thread) but Jesus says that He is the Door, and anyone who tries to enter any other way is considered a thief and a robber Once again, 2Tim 3:16 rings true. May God richly bless your study of His Word |
