Bible Reading: Romans 1:16-31
Special Verse: Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord
Romans 1:32 is a scripture that reflects the depraved condition of most societies. When I was a child growing up in Nigeria, public officers were applauded for their selfless service. Today, you are insulted for not getting rich and making others rich with public funds. The corrupt ones are given chieftaincy titles and honorary degrees.
In the western hemisphere, immorality is bragged about and honored, while chastity is degraded. Is it any wonder the society is so sick and messed up. Psychological explanations have been used to excuse blatant disregard for Biblical instructions. Parents are no longer advised to use the Biblical standards for discipline, instead they are encouraged to medicate their children or get psychological help rebellion. One thing I know is that medication or psychology will not help you if you ignore the word of God and do your own thing. Although Jesus Christ has paid for sin, it is not an excuse to live in it. Whether you are born again or an unbeliever, living in sin will destroy you and keep your earthly life miserable. Don't practice or encourage sin. This is my word for you today.
