Romans 1:18
The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness
We often wonder why our world is in such a mess and why things continue to get worse and worse. The second half of this great chapter in the Book of Romans, explains exactly why the world is in a mess and demonstrates why it keeps getting worse.
The keywords in this passage are ‘God gave them over’, and this is as a result of their continued denial and acknowledgement of God. We see a gradual slip of society into ever more degradation which could have been written today, instead of almost two thousand years ago.
The mess our world is in today is a direct result of us turning away from God. We can look for political solutions, but none will ever be found. the only way to stop this decline is for us to turn back to the God we have turned our backs on for so long. Until we do that, our land cannot be healed.
