In summary, this verse is saying that God originally established the law to His chosen people, the Jews. However, the Gentiles, who did not have the law, naturally knew what to do. We naturally can distinguish the difference between right and wrong. If we know what right and wrong is, then we can follow and obey God. Even if we do not have an actual Bible, we can still know what to do and what not to do. We would not go out and naturally kill somebody. However, that does not mean we will not do bad things. We were born into a sinful world with a sinful nature. We are not perfect. This verse has taught me that I need to dig deeper and fully understand what God has intended me to do. I will try my best to obey Him everyday, even though I know I will mess up. I will try to shine a light for Jesus through my actions.

Everyone has a conscious and they know when they are doing good. Even non-Christians know what good is without reading the Bible. In life we will run into people who are not Christians, but they are very good people. As Christians we should help show those people that there is a reason we do good. We do good for God's Glory.

If we have law we do things inside of the law but if we do not have law we make and follow our own laws. This is saying that we need to follow laws so we do not do things that come by nature to us(sin).

Even if you don't have law you naturally follow the law so you become your own law. So if you are in situation that you have never been in, your parents havent' told you specifically what to do and the bible says nothing specifically about that you can follow your conscience or general principals.

I think this means that there is a right and wrong for everyone, no matter your religion. God has set up a set of moral laws that should not be broken. Even if you are an atheist, you still feel a pull to do what God has said is right.

God has engraved on us His Law and it does not do you good to know God's Word. You have to follow it. This tells me that I need to not just know the Bible but also obey it.

In these verses I think that it is saying that if we do not have a law that we should fulfill the requirements that are in the law. Also it is saying that we should obey the rules even if it's not what everybody else in our society is doing and following.

I think that Romans 2:14 mean that even people who do not have the law of Christ still have their own sort of law to know what is right and wrong. This applies to us because we all have some sense of right and wrong.

This verse is talking mostly about moral instinct. We know when some things are right and some things are wrong. God has placed this instinct in us to work our way from here and start finding what is really right and wrong.

I think that Romans 2:14 is saying that even those who do not have God's written law (the Bible) in their hands, they still show that they know God's law by obeying it, even without hearing it. I think this verse applies to us today because when we go places our actions are what people see first and how we act has a big part in who's actions we follow. Following God's actions show that we know God's law even without walking around with the Bible in our hands.

• Romans 2:14 means: that the Gentiles were to be judged by God. Even though the Gentiles didn't have possession of the Scripture, their natural instinct carried some form of information about God. There was like a guiding principle found within them. It also means that God judges based on who He is, not the standards of man.

It's saying that unbelievers have their own law but believers follow or should follow God's law. It applies to my life because at times I don't want to follow God's law. Sometimes it's bad instinct and at times it's good instincts.

Romans 2:14 talks about how even people who do not have Jesus Christ still understand right from wrong. They know what is good and what is bad. God has his chosen people and although he has some specific chosen people, he still loves everyone. This applies to my life because it reminds me of teachers. They have chosen their (favorite) people but they still love everyone. (Or atleast pretend to love everyone)

Even though God did not give the law to the Gentiles, they knew right and wrong, and what is not good, from their instincts.Jesus loves us so we should obey his given laws.

Romans 2:14 refers to the Gentiles (non-Jews) not having any writtten or spoken laws (scripture) to go by. But yet they lived by the laws that they had by nature. They knew right from wrong instinctively. I may not know or understand all the laws, but I know consciencely righty from wrong. I should always try to do what's right even if there is no written or spoken laws.

This verse means that non-Christians don't have a law governing over them, because they have not accepted God into their hearts. If they do something required by the law, they are doing it because of their conscience or because they know that it is the right thing, not because God told them to. This verse applies to me because I am a Christian, and I do have the law. This gives me even more reason to follow it and not make excuses. If non-Christians obey it at times, we should follow it even more.
