11	Rom 1:18-23	7/11	Romans 1:21–22 (ESV) — 21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools,	God says "they became futile in their thinking" because they did not honor God or give thanks to him. That is the problem with the world. As long as we continue deny God, disobey God, flaunt our rebellion, and believe we are our own gods, we will become more stupid. We will think we are becoming smarter and more sophisticated, but the opposite will happen, and we won't even recognize it.	Father, we need to pursue your word above everything else. Only your word and your Holy Spirit can prevent the decay that is destroying our culture, our world, and even our own lives. Father, forgive us. Renew our love for the Word of God.
