That Which May be Known of God Romans 1:19

Paul the apostle told the church members in Rome, “ the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness”, and in chapter one and verse nineteen of Romans, Paul shared with the church members concerning, “that which may be known of God” where we read:

Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has showed it unto them.

The verse begins, “Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them;” Paul began with the word, “because” or “for and on account of” “that which may be known” or “that which is well-known and notable” “of God” which refers to “the Godhead bodily and trinity which is comprised of God the Father, Christ the Son and the Holy Spirit” “is manifest” which means “is apparent, evident and plainly recognized” “in them” which means “people who live”. Paul declared how God revealed anything that may be known to people who lived.

The verse goes on to say, “for God has showed it unto them.” Paul added the words, “for God” which means “because and since the Godhead bodily and trinity which is comprised of God the Father, Christ the Son and the Holy Spirit” “has showed it” which refers to “has made it manifest, visible, known and realized” “unto them” which means “to the people who live.”. “God” “showed” what may be “known” to all who live.

When we think through these words of Paul, we see how God revealed Himself through His creation. God desired for people to know Him through what “may be known”, and Paul exempted no one from His passion. Jesus Christ desires to have a relationship with every person who will believe and trust in Him, and when people observe “that which may be known”, they shall see how God has revealed Himself through these things.

Next time Paul tells the church members about, “the invisible things of him from the creation of the world”, so read ahead, and we shall join together then,

Until tomorrow…there is more…
