In this episode, Scott walks listeners through the opening chapter of Romans, offering insights into the character and nature of God. He reminds us about the inherent righteousness and justice at the foundation of God's throne, and how this contrasts with human unrighteousness. By dissecting the text, Scott explores the reasons behind the current state of the world, linking them to humanity’s tendency to suppress the truth and engage in sin. He emphasizes that, despite mankind's willful rejection and habitual sins, God's standards remain unchanged.

Scott also tackles the controversial subject of sexual immorality, explicitly focusing on unnatural relations as an example of humanity's descent into deeper sin. He explains how God's wrath manifests as a consequence of human willful rebellion and how this is part of a larger pattern of degradation that begins with idolatry and ends in a plethora of sinful behaviors. Throughout the discussion, Scott underscores the importance of recognizing these truths to understand both human nature and God's justice.
