This lesson from Romans 2:5–8 confronts the moral person who believes they are exempt from judgment. Paul warns that stubbornness and an unrepentant heart store up God's wrath, like a volcano waiting to erupt. The moral person may appear upright outwardly but harbors a hardened heart resistant to God’s grace. Judgment is based not on outward appearance but on the true condition of the heart and life. In contrast, believers are marked by perseverance in doing good, seeking God’s glory, honor, and eternal reward—not earning salvation but revealing it through transformed lives. The lesson urges self-examination, repentance, and wholehearted devotion to Christ.
