ROMANS 1.18-32
1.18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against
all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in
unrighteousness;
1.19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in
them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
1.20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of
the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even
his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
1.21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him
not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and
their foolish heart was darkened.
1.22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
1.23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an
image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and
creeping things.
1.24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through
the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between
themselves:
1.25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped
and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
1.26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections:
for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against
nature:
1.27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of
the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that
which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error
which was meet.
1.28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their
knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are
not convenient;
1.29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication,
wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit,
malignity; whisperers,
1.30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters,
inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
1.31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without
natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
1.32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit
such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in
them that do them.
