1:19 "The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them."
God's wrath is being made known to us because we have sinned. We have turned away from the truth and turned toward the untruth. God has made it plain to us that He is Holy and Righteous and hates wickedness.
2 Kings 22:13b "Great is the Lord's anger that burns against us because our fathers have not obeyed the words of this book; they have not acted in accordance with all that is written there concerning us."
John 3:36 "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him."
Romans 2:8 "But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger."
1:20 "For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities- His eternal power and divine nature- have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse."
People ask, what about the person who has never heard of God? Is God so unjust that He would sentence that person to hell? This verse answers both. God has made Himself so clear to us in what He has made. Genesis chapter one tells us of the creation of the world. The more I learn about creation the more I am in awe of God. He has created us so perfectly and the world is so amazing. I know that even if humans live on this earth for several billion more years they will only discover a small part of God's creation. It is not humanly possible to discover how every detail of Creation works. I do not understand how people can say there is no God. The world is living proof that there is a God.
Psalm 19:1-4 "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world."

Good Afternoon
This post was interesting, how long did it take you to write?
Good point, though sometimes it's hard to arrive to definite conclusions
I wrote it over three years ago so I don't remember how long it took me.
The study through Romans is just my thoughts on the scripture. I know that I sometimes sound like I have reached a definite conclusion but I'm open to hearing other's thoughts as well.
Hello
Can I link to this post please?
Yes, you may.
