Page 21 - Apostasy

32, we're going to see that apostasy is followed

by judgment. I'm skipping several verses, but

this entire chapter is dealing with the

downward steps in apostasy from being

unthankful and refusing to glorify God to gross

sins that are mentioned in the chapter. Verses

28 through the end of the chapter make

reference to this. Verse 28 says, "And even as

they did not like to retain God in their

knowledge, God gave them over to” — Notice

— “a reprobate mind, to do those things which

are not convenient,” and he begins listing their

sins in verses 29, 30, and 31, and he said in

verse 32 in reference to these people, “Who

knowing the judgment of God, that they which

commit such things are worthy of death, not

only do the same, but have pleasure in them

that do them.”
