Romans 2:21-22. Today's topic is "Practice What You Preach." Jesus often criticized the Pharisees for not practicing what they preached, a lesson still relevant today. In Romans 2:21-22, Paul questions the Jewish people, emphasizing that being Jewish doesn't exempt one from needing a savior. He asks, "Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? Thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?
