I think one of the saddest verses I have read is Romans 1:25. Paul talks about how people have changed the truth of God into a lie, and worship the creature more than the Creator. This makes me so upset. People act like the Bible is irrelevant and the culture today does the same things that pagan societies got called out for thousands of years ago. Our culture has watered down what God and following Jesus truly means. Paul later tells us that these people are so far gone God gives them over to the unrighteousness they have succumbed to. How heartbreaking for someone to know the truth but still choose to deny the path you are supposed to be on. Truth is guys we can all be guilty. It’s easy to want to follow the things we like and act like we forget the things that convict us. The other scary thought is worshipping the creature and not the Creator. In our culture today this is not hard for people to do. This is Idolatry and anytime we have made something, someone, or an idea so important and detrimental to our lives we have replaced God in our life. It is always a slippery slope, and it always starts as not a big deal. Eventually when you notice you can’t believe the distance you have created between yourself and God. But guys you know what is so great about our wonderful Creator? He from the beginning created the plan of salvation. He gave his only Son to die on a cross to cover the wages of sin for you. You are given a daily opportunity to repent and be reconciled with God. He loves you and wants you to be a part of His family, and all you have to do is ask. I challenge everyone to look inwards and see if there are any stumbling blocks that are distancing you from your Heavenly Father.
