Apart from God’s “saving grace” (found only in Christ), all people have embraced their own rebellion by casting off the righteous rule of God and his Law. Therefore, on one level, Romans 1:24-32 applies to each and every individual who has been born. However, on another level, Romans 1:24-32 also applies to collective societies and cultures down through human history. At the Tower of Babel, arrogant sinners defied God and incurred his just judgment. At Sodom and Gomorrah, the people were so corrupt that God rained down fire and consumed their cities. Furthermore, when God told Moses and Joshua to utterly destroy the Canaanites, it was because these wicked and godless people had filled up the full measure of God’s wrath by committing heinous acts of rebellion for over 400 years (Genesis 15:13-16). In short, when a society abandons God, God will abandon them.

0:00.0 | All right, listen, guys, I get it. Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry |
0:04.7 | because you're spending your cash in your lives on raising young children in the fear and |
0:09.6 | admonition of the Lord. Praise God for you and that endeavor. However, algorithms are a thing. |
0:16.3 | Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing. And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and effectiveness |
0:23.2 | of this ministry that doesn't cost you a dime is by spending just a few moments leaving us a five-star |
0:30.2 | review. Also, perhaps even more effective than that, you can share our podcast with a friend. |
0:36.5 | We hope you'll take the time to do so. Thank you so much. God bless. |
0:42.3 | Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. |
0:48.1 | You're listening to Daily Truth. |
0:52.2 | I especially want us to think about this in terms of society as a whole. |
0:59.3 | How a whole society can be placed underneath God's judgment. |
1:04.9 | And if they do not repent of their sin, how that society is progressively handed over further and further to their |
1:14.8 | sin. And remember, sin is its own consequence. Sin is its own judgment. It's not the end-all, |
1:24.5 | be-all, the exclusive and final judgment. There is an eternal judgment for sin, |
1:29.7 | but sin, it carries with it natural consequences that are destructive and harmful. And in that sense, |
1:37.7 | sin is its own punishment. Let me read a little bit further now. Apart from God's saving grace, |
1:43.8 | which is found only in Christ Jesus, |
1:47.1 | all people have embraced their own rebellion by casting off the righteous rule of God and his law. |
1:55.2 | Therefore, on one level, Romans chapter 1, verse 24 through 32, applies to each and every individual who has ever been |
