"5 But because of your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed.
6 He will render to each one according to his works: 7to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; 8but for those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will be wrath and fury. 9There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, 10but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. 11For God shows no partiality."
I'm having difficulties with this passage specifically with regard to what seems to be works based salvation. I'am most likely mistaken, i have listened to sermons and read different thing on this passage and i still don't know how to understand this passage. Does anyone possible have some insight that might help me?
