Do you know someone who lives in rebellion against God? Luke 15:1-3 Jesus ate with people who lived in sinful rebellion against God and He told them parables. In Luke 15:11-12 What did the son ask for? To go his own way. How did the father respond? The father gave him over to go his own way. Romans 1:18-23 describes a people who choose to go their own way. This is false worship. God gives them over to: Defile themselves . Romans 1:24-25 Defile others . Romans 1:26-27 Destroy themselves . Romans 1:28-32 God gave His Son to: Demonstrate His love ! Romans 5:8
