The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: uncircumcision.
ROM 2:26 Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the
law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
ROM 2:27 And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil
the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress
the law?
ROM 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that
circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
ROM 2:29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is
that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is
not of men, but of God.
