The Truth About God
Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.
Romans 1:24-25

The Truth About God
“At least I am not like those sinners over there. They really deserve what is coming to them.” This is our thought process so often when confronted with our own sins. We want to deflect and excuse. We love to condemn the sins of others. We might not have committed some of the acts Paul condemns here, but make no mistake about it, we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. We have exchanged God’s truth for human foolishness. The proper response when confronted with our sin and seeing it, should not be to respond defensively but instead fall to our knees in confession. Because in faith, God has given us the knowledge to know how He responds to sin. We know His response to our sin was that He sent His Son to die for you and me, poor, miserable, sinners. Thanks be to God for His great love and forgiveness. May our Lord continue to have mercy on us sinners and grant us sincere confessions and compassion for other sinners.
