1. What good is it to be a Jew? What good is it to be circumcised?
2. It is good in a lot of ways! First of all, God's messages were spoken to the Jews.
3. It is true that some of them did not believe the message. But does this mean that God cannot be trusted, just because they did not have faith?
4. No, indeed! God tells the truth, even if everyone else is a liar. The Scriptures say about God,“Your wordswill be proved true,and in courtyou will win your case.”
5. If our evil deeds show how right God is, then what can we say? Is it wrong for God to become angry and punish us? What a foolish thing to ask.
6. But the answer is, “No.” Otherwise, how could God judge the world?
7. Since your lies bring great honour to God by showing how truthful he is, you may ask why God still says you are a sinner.
