FAMILY THEME: THE CURSE OF SIN

Romans 1:16-32

Many times humankind has tried and failed to create a utopian

society. This lesson explains why the presence of humans 

guarantees the presence of sin.

1.  The Gospel is the Only Solution to Our Sin Problem

     (Romans 1:16-17)

     The gospel reveals God's power and willingness

     to save sinners.

 
2.  Choosing to Reject God Makes People Subject to

     His Wrath

     (Romans 1:18-23)

     Righteousness comes through receiving the

     gospel; wrath comes from rejecting the gospel.

 
3.  Rejecting God Leaves People Abandoned to Their

     Sinful Nature

     (Romans 1:24-32)

     God will allow those who continue to resist and

     reject Him to have their way. Without God's mercy

     and grace, we are left to ourselves and are without

     hope.
