Hosea 6:6

Everything God the Father desired, He found in His Son. Christ truly is the faithful covenant Son that Adam failed to be and Israel never became.

Romans 1:28-32

Sin never stands alone. Rebellion against God is never static. It always moves downward. It always progresses. It always carries the sinner further than he intended to go and further away from God. The darkness of the mind is not the cause of the rebellion. It's the consequence of the rebellion.

Hosea 6

It is possible to experience religious emotion without true conversion. It is possible to feel conviction without genuine repentance. The Lord has never been satisfied with religion that never reaches the heart.

Romans 1:26-27

Sin always follows the same tragic progression. It begins always in worship, and it moves into desires and then it appears in our behavior, but it always ends in destruction.

Is your love for the Lord like the morning cloud that disappears as the day continues? Is your love for the Lord like the dew, that once the sun rises is burned off the grass quickly and is gone for the rest of that day?

Romans 1:22-32

Man is not basically good but evil. When men persistently abandon God, God will abandon them. Only the Triune God can graciously redeem sinners. remove sin, and produce righteousness.

Romans 1:16-23

We again look at the clarity of general revelation, the culpability of suppression, and the necessity of special revelation in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Romans 1:16-25

Because of the noetic effects of sin, fallen humanity clearly perceives God's eternal power and divine nature in creation, yet willfully suppresses this truth in unrighteousness, leaving all people without excuse before the Holy God. Therefore, it drives us to our only hope, which is the righteousness of God, revealed in the gospel.
