21For when they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God, nor were thankful, but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and to birds and fourfooted beasts and creeping things.
24Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies among themselves.
25They changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

Psalm 106:19-22 "They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image. Thus they changed their glory[God] Into the similtude of an ox that eateth grass.They forgot God their Saviour which had done great things in Eygpt; Wonderous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red Sea" And "Israel" has continued to do "this" ever since Christ has delivered us from the bondage[like Eygpt] of our sins. Because when they "knew" God. Check out that word knew in a Strong's Concordance Greek dictionary. ginosko means more than a surface knowledge, it's intimate, a close and personal relationship. Same word in Matt 1:25 Joseph knew her not until she(mary) had brought forth her firstborn son. And the same word in Matt 7:21-23 ........ and then will I profess unto them, I never Knew you [we never had that close personal relationship] depart from me......Do you think that there are people like that today? Doing something in the name of Jesus, but really worshipping and serving the creation more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

Who are you referring to? Paul wrote that about a certain people about 2000 years ago. And you are placing it upon people today? Well, maybe there are such a people today, but the thing to look for is this:
21 For when they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God, nor were thankful, but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Many Christians would put this on the homosexuals. But according to my Bible, homosexuality is a savable condition, provided that God wants them.
So abandoning the Gospel for the message of condemnation is presumptuous. Jesus told us to preach the Gospel, and whosoever wills may come to him. If Christians continue to distrust the Gospel as a means for communication with homosexuals, then they are outside of God's will and applying their own will.

22Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, this is the answer to your question, People have become so smart, they now think we came from an ape, a creature, and to think these words were written about 2000 years ago and they are dead on today. God Bless YOU!!!!

It is clear that those that follow the Gay lifestyle have already in their own hearts forsaken the Law of God and the natural use of sexuality. They claim they are wiser than God by their actions, but in doing that they heap up their own Destruction. I wish they would see the truth and come to Jesus for forgiveness, and repent of their perversions, so that thye might receive Salvation through Jesus Christ.

They begin leaning on there own understandings and not the holy spirit which is right here within us ready to answer any question to help in any situation all that call on the name of the lord will not be saved .only those who do my fathers will. will make it to heaven said Jesus.so we Must ask of the spirit to know what Gods will is for us.since our own minds and emotions will lead us astray
Peace
