Romans

Unit 1, Choice 1 #3
-          A list of peoples sins in Romans 1:21-32
Glorified not God, ingratitude, vain, darkened heart, professing to be wise, changed that image of God into something ordinary, uncleanly, dishonorable, lied, vile affections, homosexuality, adultery, unable to stand test, unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity, backbiters, hate, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobey parents, covenantbreakers, implacable, unmerciful, pleasure in sin
-          Highlighted are the ones that are still a problem today
-          Reason for these sins:
They thought not of God even when they knew Him and just focused on their own carnal needs
its seems in these verses that the further that these people got into sin and the forgot about God, the further “God gave them up to a retrobate.” God is bound by the law and will not give us blessings when we are going against God and so these people were just doing more and more sin because they were searching for pleasure and happiness.
-          In verse 25 when it says that the people “worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator,” this means that the people worshiped Things and items because they no longer looked to God for guidance or direction, but instead they looked to their own knowledge and carnal senses to determine happiness for themselves.
Unit 2 Choice 1 # 2
What did Paul teach in each verse that would lead that people to Salvation?

21- overcome evil with good
13:1- lift up others by the powers of God
