Romans
1:18-20 NASB
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and
unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, (19) because that which is known about God is
evident within them; for God made it evident to them. (20) For since the creation of the world His
invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly
seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without
excuse.
The unrighteousness of man brings a rejection of
truth. Paul goes on to tell that truth
is learned from creation. God has
revealed Himself in everything He created.
All one must do is look around to see God.
This is something that David was very aware of in Psalms 19:1 NASB The
heavens are telling of the glory of God; and their expanse is declaring the
work of His hands.
All you need to do is take a drive out into the
country. I mean out where there is no
buildings or street lights to hide the night sky. The heavens are testimony to the glory of
God.
Paul says that man has no excuse for not knowing
that God is God. Man has a built in
instinctive sense of right and wrong.
Every culture, even the ones man has labeled as uncivilized have a list
of right and wrong. But even in their
cultures people choose to reject the truth.
It is simple Jesus said I am the way the truth and
the life. Society wants God to fit into
its mold. I would argue that God is
Alpha and Omega and holds the world in His hands.
Should we be trying to make Him fit our
lifestyle? Or, should we be living a
life dedicated to pleasing Him and keeping His WORD.
