And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: . Romans 1:28-31

Sin is a dangerous game people like to play, but the reality is you can get so deep into your sin, that there is no point of return for you! Alot of people don’t like to hear this , alot people like to believe they can “dance with the devil” their entire life and then turn back to God later. Consider what the Apostle Paul says under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit “God gave them over to a reprobate or depraved mind” Many people love their sin more than they love God, so eventually God will just give them over to their sin, and allow them to destroy themselves. 

If you look at the original Greek word “adokimon” it means to fail the test, unapproved or worthless. This is why God has given them up over to Satan, they become dead branches, fruitless, as Jesus said “Every tree that doesn’t produce good fruit is thrown into the fire” (Matthew 7:19) This is why some people are impossible to reach with the gospel, their hearts and minds are hardened and deaf. And you probably experienced this also, interacting with people who are so far into their sin, they are unreasonable or totally incapable of logic.

Consider what the author of Hebrews says under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit “If we sin willfully or deliberately after we have received the knowledge of truth (gospel), there remains no longer a sacrifice for our sins (Hebrews 10:26) Again another difficult text for us to swallow. But this is the Word of God, and the truth is some people will reject Christ and embrace their sin more. Eventually God will give them over to their first love, their sins, and there remains no more possibility of salvation for them

Man has made false doctrines , such as purgatory, the idea we can remain in our sin and deal with it later, to get to Heaven. No the author of Hebrews also said “its appointed to us , once to die, then to judgement” (Hebrews 9:27) There are no second chances in Hell, you must be Born Again (John 3:3) 

I understand this concept is difficult for us to grasp, because the Church has taught a “cheap grace” theology for many year. Consider what the Apostle Jude said “The angels, who did not keep their  proper domain, left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgement of the great day (Jude 1:6) Is their any hope left for the fallen angels? No, they rejected the knowledge of Christ and were given over to their sins which results into judgement from God. 

I would like to just end by this scripture “Fear of The Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding” (Proverbs 9:10) Turn to Jesus Christ for salvation and remain on the Narrow Path that leads to life, the Broad Road leads to destruction, and many will enter through it (Matthew 7:13) Amen
