Romans 2:26, 28-29
Romans 2:26 NIV
So then, if those who are not circumcised keep the law’s requirements, will they not be regarded as though they were circumcised?
Romans 2:28-29 NIV
A person is not a Jew who is one only outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical. No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a person’s praise is not from other people, but from God.
