Romans 1:18

God’s Wrath against Sin

17For the gospel reveals the righteousness of God that comes by faith from start to finish, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness.19For what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
