Things are happening so fast today. The societal change in the last 5 years has been breathtaking. What will the next five years bring? Our culture is corrupt and declining. Good is bad and bad is good. Everyone does what is right in their own eyes. The authority of dignified and righteous leaders is scarce. When we look at things, we can come to only one of two conclusions. Either God is not control or it is something else entirely. We know that the one and true living God is supreme in all things. He is sovereign. Nothing happens unless He has ordained it. It stands written! The correct conclusion is that the wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness. The most fundamental sin in our fallen, corrupt nature is the sin of idolatry, the sin of refusing to honor God as he is. How does God respond to idolatry? God gives people over to what they want. What is the effect? The degrading of their bodies with one another. When men refuse to honor God, they begin to dishonor themselves. Wherever the glory of God is attacked, sooner or later the dignity of man suffers. Be afraid: the current culture is prima facie evidence of the wrath of God upon our society. When God judges people according to the standard of his righteousness, he is declaring that he will not strive with mankind forever. The worst thing that can happen to sinners is to be allowed to go on sinning without any divine restraints. We become slaves of the things we want to do, forging our own chains link by link.
