Romans 2: 12 The Gentiles do not have the
law of Moses; they sin and are lost apart from the
law. The Jews have the law; they sin and are
judged by the Law. For it is not by hearing the
Law that people are put right with God, but by
doing what the Law commands. The Gentiles do not
have the Law; but whenever they do by instinct
what the Law commands, they are their own law..

since their thoughts sometimes accuse them and
sometimes defend them.
