Without Excuse

Wrath poured out on ungodly men suppressing truth by their actions. Makes himself known, clearly perceived in things plain seen: His strength, nature. Not thanking Him, we ascribe worth, praise the creature. Without excuse, we understand praise and honor are required but misdirected. We create gods, glorify them: things created with our own hands. Therefore, our God hands us over to our own lusts: “Give chase!” He says. Though you may seek, you will not find. Emptiness and despair await. Even worse still, though we full know practicing such does deserve death, we not only do all these things but also give approval to those who likewise do so as well. ---------- Really, just musing on, and a recasting of, Romans 1:18-32
