Romans 1:29-32
The Sinful Nature of Sinners

Today, March 7th, 2023, let us together, in the grace of God, rejoice and reflect on the Word of God in Romans 1:29-32

29 having been filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, iniquity, covetousness, malice, being full of envy, murder, quarrels, deceit, evil habits, becoming whisperers,

30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, proud, braggarts, devisers of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 without discernment, covenant breakers, without natural affection, unforgiving, unmerciful,

32 who knowing the righteous order of God, that those practicing such things are worthy of death, not only do them, but also approve those practicing them.

[Literal Translation of the Holy Bible]
