Thanks for your kind words. I'd like to see you take the next steps to agreeing with Paul. 1) admit that these Gentiles have a faith of a sorts, that though not coming to them by reading the Word, is nonetheless faith. 2) Agree with Paul "that they show the work of the law in their heart" coming about from what Paul calls 'nature' and not coming from that which usually is the Word if and when heard. 3) Agree with Paul that these have a conscience which doesn't condemn them on the day of Judgment. Agree that they are righteous but they haven't attained this righteousness by the means which those who have the Word usually do - obedience to the Gospel.
Plz try to get the general drift of what I say and do not become like others in this thread who seem to ignore my general drift and wish to nit-pick at minor discrepancies instead. These minor discrepancies were never intended to be known as strictly-defined detailed explanations which the nit-pickers blows up out of proportion and rants against wrongly, but should instead be taken as a general broad descriptions which are shortened versions for expediency sake.
