The
Wrath of God is being Revealed from Heaven
Against
all the godlessness and Wickedness of men [and women]
Who
Suppress the Truth by their Wickedness,
Since
what may be known about God is Plain to them,
BECAUSE
GOD HAS MADE IT PLAIN TO THEM
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.
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
Although
they claimed to be wise,
They
became Fools and Exchanged the Glory of the Immortal God
For
Images [and all manner of substitutes for God]
Made
to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
THEREFORE
GOD GAVE THEM OVER
IN
THE SINFUL DESIRES OF THEIR HEARTS
TO
SEXUAL IMPURITY
For
the degrading of their bodies with one another.
THEY
EXCHANGED THE TRUTH OF GOD FOR A LIE
And
Worshiped and Served Created Things
Rather
than the Creator--Who is forever praised. Amen.
Because
of this,
GOD
GAVE THEM OVER TO SHAMEFUL LUSTS.
Even
their Women Exchanged Natural Relations,
FOR
UNNATURAL ONES.
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.
Furthermore,
since they did not think it worthwhile
To
retain the knowledge of God,
HE
GAVE THEM OVER TO A DEPRAVED MIND,
TO
DO WHAT OUGHT NOT TO BE DONE.
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, SLANDERERS, GOD-HATERS,
INSOLENT,
ARROGANT AND BOASTFUL;
THEY
INVENT WAYS OF DOING EVIL;
They
are disobey their parents;
THEY
ARE SENSELESS, FAITHLESS, HEARTLESS, RUTHLESS.
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 practice them.
(Romans
1:18-32)
Here,
the apostle Paul here defines
The
time we are living in.
It
is what we see everyday, all around us,
In
every Part of our Culture.
God's Wrath is Revealed Everyday agaisnt this Depravity
And it goes Unheeded.
Is
it any wonder that God has limited “TIME.”
God
has Limited “TIME” in His Mercy.
Think
about it.
What
kind of God would let this Depravity go on Forever?
God,
through Christ Jesus and His Word
Has
Proscribed a WAY
A
NARROW WAY, THAT IS OBVIOUS TO EVERYONE.
But
Most People Ignore this WAY and Chose Instead,
THE
BROAD ROAD THAT LEADS TO DESTRUCTION. (Matthew 7:13)
THERE
ARE ONLY TWO CHOICES
For
every person and every Nation in this World.
They
either Fall upon the Stone (Christ) and are broken to pieces,
In
Repentance and Humility, Surrendering to His love;
Or
the Stone (Christ) Falls upon them (the proud)
And
they are Crushed to Powder. (Matthew 21:44)
Nevertheless,
the wonder of God is,
That
Everyone has this Choice,
And
God visits Every Person and makes this Choice clear to them.
He
Knocks on Every Door of Every Person.
However,
the Person Must Open the Door and let Him in.
Christ Jesus warned us:
Be
always on the Watch,
And pray that you
will be able to Escape All that is about to happen,
And that you may be
able TO STAND before the Son of Man.
(Luke 21:36)
Today,
the World is Raging Against God,
Rushing
toward Oblivion. (Psalm 2)
This
World in it's Present Form is Passing Away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)
America
is being Ground to Powder because of her SIN against God.
Save
yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As
God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father,
Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on Earth as in Heaven!
