The second main reason why no one is excusable before God

         


 2. God’s creation

The second main reason why no one is excusable before God it is because of  God's creation and His impartial laws of nature as we have been clearly instructed saying; “What may be known of God have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse” Romans 1: 20)

.For example:

Only the fool [one who misuses true wisdom] says in his heart, “There is no God.” (Psalms 14:1). “They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds,. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man or birds or animals or reptiles. Therefore; God gave them over in the sinful desires of their heart to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another.

Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and are inflamed with lust for one another. Men committing indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion” (Romans 1:24-27). 

Regardless what terminology is used to justify this act, such as, Sexual preference” it is unnatural and inexcusable. Although we are not to be judgmental as we have been duly instructed saying; " Who are you to judge another's servant? To his own master he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.." Nevertheless, we must also bear in mind the fact that; "who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them" (Romans14:4; 1:32).







From the beginning God created male and female, then He blessed them, and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it.” It is impossible for two men, or two women to multiply and be fruitful. And the reason for the two becoming one it is for companionship, and to raise godly offspring unto the Lord. (Genesis  1:27-28; Mark. 10:6-8; Malachi 2:15).

 From the beginning God made mankind male and female, and for this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife and the two shall become one flesh; so they are no longer two, but one flesh (Genesis 2;24; Mathew 19:5;Ephesians 5:31)

We have also been given the responsibility to; " Judge among ourselves. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered? Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him? But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering. But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor do the churches of God" (1Corinthians 11:13-16). 

Again the conclusion and the crux of the matter is, even though an individual does not commit the unlawful acts themselves but the fact that they approve of the one who does it is as guilty as the offender.
