Heart Condition

Romans 1:21
From the beginning of time we see that even though people knew God- and especially  at this point when Paul writes, people had seen Christ , interacted, witnessed miracles, knew of the resurrection – and still they turned their backs and made bad choices.   God allowed them to make the choices to follow their sinful hearts.  They traded;Immortal for mortalTruth for liesPurity for impurityCreator for createdIntangible to tangible Paul follows a thread here  when he writes the Corinthian church.  II Corinthian 4:18  “So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary and what is unseen is eternal.”  Paul is so awestruck at his own delineation here that he is forced to pause with reverence deserved of his heavenly Father and Creator and offers praise and closure with an..”Amen”.In verse 26 Paul  lists with great fervor and disgust the things that ungodly hearts pursue….wickedness, gossip, lies, disobedience, immorality, faithless, ruthless, heartless.  Our recent school shootings bring to mind this condition of the heart and evidence of a depraved mind.  A complacency of onlookers who say, “what is this world coming too” and go on with their day.  Where is the shock, the remorse?  Are we approving of the actions of today of the wicked and ungodly?  Are we allowing ungodly TV shows, movies, games, books, clothing and behavior into our homes?  Where does it end and what are YOU doing to make a difference?
