(Sunday Morning March 7th, 2010)

Selected Scriptures

Rom 1:20-23 “20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature,
have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without
excuse. 21 For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks,
but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing
to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image
in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures”
