Romans 1:25-28 (CWSB)
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
covenant:
An agreement between two parties that specifies requirements for at least one party, and includes blessing and curses for obedience or failure.
Changed the truth of God into a lie
- John 8:44 (CWSB) 44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
this cause God gave them up unto vile affections:
- The term vile affections (pathe atimias) means passions, dishonor, disgrace, infamy, shame, and degradation. It means passions that cannot be controlled or governed, that run loose and wild, no matter how much a person tries to control them.
- Isaiah 32:6 (CWSB) 6 For the vile person will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to practice hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
God gave them over to a reprobate mind,
- “an unfit mind,” i.e. incapable of properly performing its function of moral discrimination, unapproved, that is, rejected; by implication worthless (literally or morally): - castaway, rejected, reprobate.
Titus 1:16
16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
