Romans 2:15

Radiate New Testament

They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts. Their consciences are also helping them to know right from wrong. Sometimes they get the feeling that they’ve done wrong, but at other times they recognize that they’ve done right. It’s the ones who have obeyed the law who will be declared right with God.
