All Mankind Guilty before God

inful, corrupt mankind has deliberately and willfully turned against God, the maker of heaven and earth, and has instead worshiped the creation. All have become idolators by nature. Nevertheless, the true knowledge of God's existence continues to shine in and throughout all creation—and all men plainly see this and know it! Therefore, our willful rejection of God renders us guilty in sin, and we are without excuse. Exchanging the glory of God for base creatures, we have become foolish and arrogant, all the while thinking that we are wiser than God. All mankind is corrupted, and needs redemption. Our Redeemer is the Lord Jesus Christ, who is given to deliver us out of our ignorance and darkness, and to bring us into His marvelous light. Believe this good news and live!
