لأن غضب الله معلن من السماء

[Mary Naeem]

لأن غضب الله معلن من السماء على جميع فجور الناس وإثمهم الذين يحجزون الحق بالإثم. إذ معرفة الله ظاهرة فيهم لأن الله أظهرها لهم لأن منذ خلق العالم ترى أموره غير المنظورة وقدرته السرمدية ولاهوته مدركة بالمصنوعات حتى إنهم بلا عذر. لأنهم لما عرفوا الله لم يمجدوه أو يشكروه كإله بل حمقوا في أفكارهم وأظلم قلبهم الغبي. وبينما هم يزعمون أنهم حكماء صاروا جهلاء وأبدلوا مجد الله الذي لا يفنى بشبه صورة الإنسان الذي يفنى والطيور والدواب والزحافات.
لذلك أسلمهم الله أيضا في شهوات قلوبهم إلى النجاسة لإهانة أجسادهم بين ذواتهم. الذين استبدلوا حق الله بالكذب واتقوا وعبدوا المخلوق دون الخالق الذي هو مبارك إلى الأبد. آمين. لذلك أسلمهم الله إلى أهواء الهوان لأن إناثهم استبدلن الاستعمال الطبيعي بالذي على خلاف الطبيعة وكذلك الذكور أيضا تاركين استعمال الأنثى الطبيعي اشتعلوا بشهوتهم بعضهم لبعض فاعلين الفحشاء ذكورا بذكور ونائلين في أنفسهم جزاء ضلالهم المحق. وكما لم يستحسنوا أن يبقوا الله في معرفتهم أسلمهم الله إلى ذهن مرفوض ليفعلوا ما لا يليق.
رومية 1: 18, 19, 28

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever.
Amen. 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: 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 recompence of their error which was meet. 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;
