Romans Chapter 1

- For although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God nor did they thank him, but they became empty-headed in their reasonings and their senseless hearts became darkened. Although claiming they were wise, they became foolish and turned the glory of the incorruptible God into something like the image of corruptible man and birds and four-footed creatures and reptiles.

- Going away from God, man became empty-headed! - When we look at today’s situation, we may understand what it means! - And if we don’t, it will be easier as time passes and the situation is worsening faster and faster! - Their senseless hearts became darkened! - Can it be darker! - I doubt it! - But man never understands! - Yes, men claim they are wise! - They don’t look at reality! - They don’t open their eyes! - In fact, they have always been foolish! - And they are obstinate!
