Last week, we touched on the elements of a society not glorifying God as He is, the God of the bible. Not the god of our opinion, the god of what we think, or the god of how we feel, but the Creator, the Ruler, the Maker, the one in whose laws we abide by-that’s the God who should be glorified.
Romans 1:18 is God’s manifestation on all who suppress the truth-they know it’s wrong, denying God’s reality in order to live how they please. God has manifested His deepest intent to every soul. They all have equal opportunity to recognize Him. Last week we stated this fact; that as the scripture reveals in order for you to suppress the truth it was once delivered to you in some way.
God’s wrath is revealed because those who know what is right chose to reject this knowledge of who God is for other immoral and pleasurable deeds. The wrath of God is revealed when this type of behavior begins to defy His divine order. This wrath is not a temper tantrum; this wrath is not a fit of rage that is only for a moment; but this wrath is the releasing of the man or woman or that nation that is aware of who God is but are willing to roll the dice and reject His way of doing things.

When God Turns You Over
Romans 1:24-32
There is an imaginative and humanistic force in our world today. A feeling of self-seeking and enjoyment is prevalent, where society is willing to violate Godly principles in order to live as they please. They are attempting to violate God’s divine principles for humanity in order to fulfill their desires. Even when we view the life of those who are professing believers, it makes you wonder sometimes if we use salvation as insurance, just in case heaven is real or for those who truly believe and live holy there is a feeling of assurance, confident of the reality of hell and heaven and the consequences of the life we live. Because far too often there are elements of a spurious life; one that is concerned with self glorification and missing the desire of the mind, soul, and body’s commitment to the cause of Christ. When I read the word in light of how we live, someone is lying.
We advance forward into a very graphic description of society’s declination. A description that is supported by evidence of man’s ills today is simply the statistics. Turn to the news and we can see a nation that lacks moral responsibility because they have rejected the only one who can provide it.
