Romans 1:21 in Context — Romans 1
19 pois o que se pode conhecer de Deus é evidente a eles, porque Deus lhes manifestou.
20 Pois as suas características invisíveis, inclusive o seu eterno poder e divindade, desde a criação do mundo são entendidas e claramente vistas por meio das coisas criadas, para que não tenham desculpa;
21 Porque, ainda que tenham conhecido Deus, não o glorificaram como Deus, nem foram gratos; em vez disso, perderam o bom senso em seus pensamentos, e seus tolos corações ficaram em trevas.
22 Chamando a si mesmos de sábios, tornaram-se tolos,
23 e trocaram a glória de Deus indestrutível por semelhança de imagem do ser humano destrutível, e de aves, de quadrúpedes, e de répteis.
