The sermon presents a powerful, theologically grounded exploration of Romans 1:18–23, framing the revelation of God's wrath as a necessary precursor to the gospel's transformative grace. It establishes that God's righteous judgment is not arbitrary but rooted in His holy standard—absolute perfection—which all humanity fails to meet, making every person accountable. The message emphasizes that this judgment is not limited to overt sinners but extends to all who suppress the truth revealed through creation and conscience, rendering every person without excuse. Yet, the sermon underscores that this sobering diagnosis is not the end, but the essential foundation for the good news: God's righteousness is revealed through faith in Christ, who bore the wrath due to sinners, offering justification, peace, and eternal security to all who believe. The tone is both convicting and compassionate, urging listeners to confront their spiritual condition not in despair, but in anticipation of the liberating grace found only in Christ.
