Romans 1 📜 📕 ↷
God's Wrath against Sin
18 For the wrath of God from Heaven is revealed, upon all impiety and injustice of those men that detain the verity of God in injustice:📜💬📚
19 because, that of God which is known, is manifest in them. For God hath manifested it unto them.📜💬📚
20 For his invisible things, from the creation of the world are seen, being understood by those things that are made; his eternal power also and Divinity: so that they are inexcusable.📜💬📚
21 Because, whereas they knew God, they have not glorified him as God, or given thanks: but are become vain in their cogitations, and their foolish heart hath been darkened.📜💬📚
22 For, saying themselves to be wise, they became fools.📜💬📚
23 And they changed the glory of the incorruptible God, into a similitude of the image of a corruptible man, and of fowls and four-footed beasts and of them that creep.📜💬📚
Sexual Sin
24 (For the which cause God hath delivered them up unto the desires of their heart, unto uncleanness, for to abuse their own bodies among themselves ignominiously.)📜💬📚
25 Who have changed the verity of God into lying: and have worshipped & served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.📜💬📚
Homosexuality Called Vile
26 Therefore God hath delivered them into passions of ignominy. For their women have changed the natural use, into that use that is contrary to nature.📜💬📚
27 And in like manner the men also, leaving the natural use of the woman, have burned in their desires one toward another, men upon men working turpitude, & the reward of their error (which they should) receiving in themselves.📜💬📚
28 And as they liked not to have God in knowledge; God delivered them up into a reprobate sense, to do those things that are not convenient:📜💬📚
29 replenished with all iniquity, malice, fornication, avarice, wickedness, full of envy, murder, contention, guile, malignity, whisperers,📜💬📚
30 detractors, odible to God, contumelious, proud, haughty, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,📜💬📚
31 foolish, dissolute, without affection, without fidelity, without mercy.📜💬📚
Worthy of Death
32 Who whereas they knew the justice of God, did not understand that they which do such things, are worthy of death: not only they that do them, but they also that consent to the doers.📜💬📚
