Audio commentary on this verse

Note 12 at Rom. 10:12: The differences between Jew and Gentile do not mean much to the Christian church today. Therefore, many church people may feel that they agree with this verse. However, Paul is speaking of more than just racial differences.

Paul is saying that there is no difference between moral and immoral people. There is no difference in the sight of God between the religious and the non-religious. Everyone is a sinner and in need of the same salvation. This point still aggravates the religious people today as much as it did in the days of Paul.
