God's Verdict On Man And His Sin - Romans 1: 21-25
Man thinks He knows God
at the same time they honour Him not
for their hearts fools darkness
reveals their futility in life so sought
They make such lavish claims
of real wisdom but become fools
this God has always known
living their man made rules
So God gave them up to sin
following their lustful willing heart
exchanging God's glory for their own
rejects the gospel in no small part
Man has exchanged God's truth
for lies worshiping the creature
rather than the immortal God
the one and only true creator
God demands true worshippers
those that would turn from their sin
making God their Lord and Saviour
looking to Jesus His favour to win
("For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.")
Romans 1: 21-25 (ESV)
