Rom 1:18-20 KJV For
the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and
unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; (19)
Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath
shewed it unto them. (20) For the invisible things of him from the
creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are
made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Tares without excuse
Holiness of Creator known to man
made in His image
From a forum post:
B:- Many put their faith in their religion and have never read the bible.
They are being misled, but they don't know it. What happens to them? }}
J:- Thanks for correcting me. I should have written "conscience and /
or scripture". The universal guilt of man is indicated in Romans 1-3 by an
enumeration of all of the sources of knowledge of God, his power and his
holiness and his intolerance toward moral evil, that are available to them.
The only "faith" that is of value to God is that which
accompanies His giving of righteousness to the begotten again. Individuals may
be misled but they are guilty, having obeyed man rather than God. They know
better. The power and deity and holiness and intolerance toward evil of the
Creator are known to the heart and soul of a creature created in His image.
They are without excuse. Unless they obey the Gospel, their foot will slide in
due time.
B was responding to a portion of a prior post by J:
One. Ignoring conscience and scripture, "their foot will slide in due
time": Deu 32:35 KJV To me
belongeth vengeance, and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for
the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them
make haste. A classic exposition of the text was given by Jonathan Edwards in
Enfield, Mass., on July 8, 1741 (Select Sermons - Christian Classics Ethereal
