24 Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them. 25 For they exchttps://csnbbs.com/newthread.php?fid=970hanged the truth of God for [p]a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed [q]forever. Amen.
26 For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is [r]unnatural, 27 and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing [s]indecent acts and receiving in [t]their own persons the due penalty of their error.
28 And just as they did not see fit [u]to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, 30 slanderers, [v]haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; 32 and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them. Romans 1
Thoughts? Our Government meddling too much into social fabric of morality? Americans are truly ignorant or arrogant? Are we a lost nation Rome2.0 so to speak.
It definitely appears we are headed for the same demise of self implosion as did the Roman Empire.
The last bridge we haven’t crossed is pedophilia but inroads are being made daily.
The lost don't want to see it or admit it, but there is no denying sin, depravity, sexual sin and insanity is growing rapidly across the globe to heights not seen since the days of Noah.
They all use the same excuse and just say evil and sinful practice has always existed which it has. What has not always existed is over 7 billion people all engaging in this globally, and unlike millennia past they are engaging in it when the truth and the Gospel are readily known and has spread across the world. As scripture tells us, God allowed more of this in the past due to ignorance of His law and Word because that is how He executed His eternal plan.
But this is not ages past, we are now 2000 years since Jesus came into the world and showed us how He is the light, how He is the way, the truth and the life. He is no longer willing to turn a blind eyes to this because of ignorance, the world has been exposed to the Gospel and the Truth for 2000 years and have soundly rejected it and Him. At the same time we have seen DRAMATIC increases in world population the last 150 years. In Jesus time there were less that 250 million people on the earth, in 1800 there were only about 900 million. By 2022 we have exploded to nearly 8 BILLION.
They also fail to see the fall of CHRISTIAN nations and people, a dramatic falling away from the faith and a dramatic increase in evil, sin and sexual depravity. Paul knew and understood 2000 years ago that Rome was full of evil and sin, but through the Holy Spirit he also understood that wickedness and sin would wax worse and worse leading up to the end.
And here we are.
Even America has become one of the most evil and sinful nations on the entire planet. Gender and LGBTQ madness, pedophilia, free internet porn for all even small children, and all the other evils Paul listed. And this angers God more that a pagan nations following our path, we KNOW this is evil and sinful, we KNOW the gospel. And its not just America, its Europe as well. Europe has totally turned its back on the faith and the Bible, and we are right behind them.
As Jesus said, it would be like the days of Noah when He returns...sin, deception, wilful ignorance and blindness to God everywhere, and others just in flat out in open rebellion against Him.
