The Natural World The natural world was formed by God through his words. He spoke the universe and everything in it into existence, we know this because it says it in the beginning of Genesis. “For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – His eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.” Paul wrote this in Romans 1:20.

Man is born sinful because of Adam and we need God and Jesus so we can repent for our sins. Jesus died on the cross so that we could repent and be able to not sin. When we go against him like this, it makes it seem like we do not care. Culture From looking at the human relationships and all the violence you can tell the culture was going downhill very fast. The culture had become full of people who were full of envy, strife, deceit and malice. They were gossips, slanderers, haters of God, arrogant, insolent, and boastful (Romans 1:26-32). They truly wanted to live a life without God and God made that happen. He did not want to deal with the behavior they were doing. They knew they were rebelling against God and they did not care, they just
