6. Because God's existence and nature are evident in creation, people are **without excuse** for their rebellion against Him. Romans 1:20 states that God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.<br /><br />7. Paul said that sinful people suppress the truth by their **wickedness** (Romans 1:18).<br /><br />8. You become like what you **worship**. This principle is illustrated throughout Scripture, particularly in the Old Testament with the Israelites' tendency to adopt the practices of the surrounding nations. Romans 1:25 also speaks to this, indicating that people exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator.<br /><br />9. Because humankind rejected God, God **gave them over** to their sinful desires (Romans 1:24, 26, 28). This doesn't mean God forced them to sin, but rather that He withdrew His restraining hand and allowed them to experience the consequences of their choices.<br /><br />10. Peter said that Jesus entrusted Himself to **him who judges justly** (1 Peter 2:23). This refers to God the Father.<br />
