In this lesson, the Apostle Paul presents a devastating list of sins that reflect the moral collapse of those who have rejected God. These verses outline the characteristics of a culture and individual lives that have been given over to depravity. Paul catalogs twenty-one distinct sins, including envy, murder, deceit, gossip, pride, disobedience to parents, and lack of love or mercy. These are not isolated acts but evidence of a corrupt heart and mind—proof that humanity, when left to itself, becomes enslaved to sin. The point is not merely to condemn others but to underscore the universal need for the gospel. Paul’s intent is to hold up a mirror to the human heart and show why God’s wrath is justified and His grace is necessary.
