Audio commentary on this verse

Note 12 at Ro 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 was speaking of more than just racial differences.

Paul was 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 nonreligious. All people are sinners 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.
