I always like to review Romans 1:20-32
Ro. 1:20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities
— his eternal power and divine nature — have been clearly
seen, being understood from what has been made, so that
men are without excuse.
Ro. 1:21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as
God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile
and their foolish hearts were darkened.
Ro. 1:22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools.
Ro. 1:23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images
made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
Ro. 1:24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their
hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another.
Ro. 1:25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped
and served created things rather than the Creator — who is for ever praised. Amen.
Ro. 1:26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even
their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones.
Ro. 1:27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations
with women and were inflamed with lust for one another.
Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in
themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
Ro. 1:28 Furthermore, since they did not think it worth while to retain
the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved
mind, to do what ought not to be done.
Ro. 1:29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil,
greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife,
deceit and malice. They are gossips,
Ro. 1:30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they
invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents;
Ro. 1:31 they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless.
Ro. 1:32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who
do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do
these very things but also approve of those who practise
them.
