day no. 16,293: slippery slopes and that damned plus sign (+)

Romans 1:18

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness

The wrath of God is not always fire falling from heaven; sometimes, and seemingly more often, it is God giving people over to their own desires.

Romans 1:28

And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper

When people willfully ignore His presence and passionately rebel against every principle He has put in place, there comes a point where He simply let’s go and hands them over.

Slopes don’t get less slippery the further down you slide... and once you get going, it's all downhill from there.

It should not shock us, therefore, to see pornography in classrooms, men in women's locker rooms, pedophilia being promoted, or even human sacrifice suggested. The naysayers assume some sort of secular order will save us from going too far, but their hope is in a basic human decency that doesn't exist. There is no decency where God is dishonored.

The woke will go for broke and that + will grow to include every vile sexual practice imaginable. That damned + can be anything precisely because it is damned and has no brakes.

Some will scoff and say, "Come on, that plus sign cannot be aaaaaneeeeething. Don't be so dramatic. There are things that even they would consider too far.”

We have bought the lie that basic morality exists on its own and can hold a society in place while giving way to immorality at its edges. It's just gay marriage (i.e. mirage). It's just sex reassignment surgery. It's just polygamy. It's just pedophilia. It's just +. That God-awful + just hovers there waiting to grow up into whatever someone is willing to say or do next. There is no reason it could not be anything. There is nothing to limit it or depth to which it will not consider going since God has taken His hands off.

Romans 1:28-30

God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper... inventors of evil.

Our only hope is God getting more hands on. 🙏🏼
