<\/a>I think it is important not to confuse ungodliness<\/em> here with sinful acts.\u00a0 The word is \u1f00\u03c3\u1f73\u03b2\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd<\/a>\u00a0(a form of \u1f00\u03c3\u03ad\u03b2\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1<\/a>) in Greek from \u1f00\u03c3\u03b5\u03b2\u03ae\u03c2<\/a>, a compound word, the negation of \u03c3\u03ad\u03b2\u03bf\u03bc\u03b1\u03b9<\/a> (a form of \u03c3\u03ad\u03b2\u03c9<\/a>; \u201cto worship, honour, revere\u201d).\u00a0 This \u1f00\u03c3\u03ad\u03b2\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1 is something in people that causes them not to revere God in truth.\u00a0 What I am calling the religious mind<\/em> is surely part of this \u1f00\u03c3\u03ad\u03b2\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1 (ungodliness<\/em>).\u00a0 Because of this \u1f00\u03c3\u03ad\u03b2\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1\u00a0people either ignored or denied the obvious truths that were made plain to them <\/em>by the creation itself, because what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. \u00a0For since the creation of the world his invisible attributes \u2013 his eternal power <\/em>(\u03b4\u03cd\u03bd\u03b1\u03bc\u03b9\u03c2<\/a>) and divine nature \u2013 have been clearly seen, because they are understood through what has been made.\u00a0 So people are without excuse<\/em>.3<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n

So people are culpable for their failure to worship Him in truth, and his wrath was visited upon them as they worshiped after their own inclinations (not unlike Nadab and Abihu<\/a> in some cases).\u00a0 For although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or give him thanks,<\/em>4<\/sup><\/a> but they became futile in their thoughts and their senseless hearts were darkened. \u00a0Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for an image resembling mortal human beings or birds or four-footed animals or reptiles<\/em>.5<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n

In other words both people and the rest of creation were made in such a way by God that it should have been plain to <\/em>us that no human being, bird, mammal or reptile made everything that had been made.\u00a0 But this \u1f00\u03c3\u03ad\u03b2\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1\u00a0in human beings makes our thoughts futile, our hearts senseless, and though it may flatter us that we are wise, ultimately it makes fools of us before God.\u00a0 And so God\u2019s wrath against our \u1f00\u03c3\u1f73\u03b2\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd\u00a0(a form of \u1f00\u03c3\u03ad\u03b2\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1) and our unrighteous worship was revealed <\/em>(\u1f08\u03c0\u03bf\u03ba\u03b1\u03bb\u1f7b\u03c0\u03c4\u03b5\u03c4\u03b1\u03b9<\/a>, a form of \u1f00\u03c0\u03bf\u03ba\u03b1\u03bb\u03cd\u03c0\u03c4\u03c9<\/a>) from heaven<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

The desires of their hearts<\/em> were not necessarily evil because of the Greek word \u1f10\u03c0\u03b9\u03b8\u03c5\u03bc\u1f77\u03b1\u03b9\u03c2\u00a0(a form of \u1f10\u03c0\u03b9\u03b8\u03c5\u03bc\u03af\u03b1).\u00a0 Jesus said, I have earnestly<\/em> (\u1f10\u03c0\u03b9\u03b8\u03c5\u03bc\u1f77\u1fb3, another form of \u1f10\u03c0\u03b9\u03b8\u03c5\u03bc\u03af\u03b1) desired <\/em>(\u1f10\u03c0\u03b5\u03b8\u1f7b\u03bc\u03b7\u03c3\u03b1<\/a>, a form of \u1f10\u03c0\u03b9\u03b8\u03c5\u03bc\u03ad\u03c9<\/a>) to eat this Passover with you before I suffer<\/em>.7<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 But \u1f00\u03c3\u03ad\u03b2\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1 (ungodliness<\/em>) even in religious people nudges those desires toward evil.\u00a0 You people are from your father<\/a> the devil<\/em>, Jesus said to those who were trying to kill him,8<\/sup><\/a> and you want to do what your father desires <\/em>(\u1f10\u03c0\u03b9\u03b8\u03c5\u03bc\u1f77\u03b1\u03c2, a form of \u1f10\u03c0\u03b9\u03b8\u03c5\u03bc\u03af\u03b1).\u00a0 He was a murderer from the beginning<\/em>\u20269<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n

So I say this, and insist in the Lord, that you no longer live as the Gentiles10<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>do, in the futility of their thinking. \u00a0They are darkened<\/a> in their understanding, being alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardness of their hearts [Table<\/a>]<\/em>. \u00a0Because they are callous, they have given themselves over (\u03c0\u03b1\u03c1\u1f73\u03b4\u03c9\u03ba\u03b1\u03bd<\/em>, a form of \u03c0\u03b1\u03c1\u03b1\u03b4\u03af\u03b4\u03c9\u03bc\u03b9)<\/em> to indecency for the practice of every kind of impurity (\u1f00\u03ba\u03b1\u03b8\u03b1\u03c1\u03c3\u1f77\u03b1\u03c2<\/em>, a form of \u1f00\u03ba\u03b1\u03b8\u03b1\u03c1\u03c3\u03af\u03b1)<\/em> with greediness.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
