The Reprobate Mind

An unprincipled person
A sinner who is not of the elect and is
predestined to damnation.

Romans 1:19-28

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of
men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto
them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being
understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they
are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but
became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man,
and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to
dishonour their own bodies between themselves:Who changed the truth of God into a lie,
and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever.
Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did
change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving
the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men
working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error
which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave
them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient

What is God saying Romans chapter 1 verse 19 to 28, it is not talking about homosexuals per
say as many Christians would believe, no it is talking about those carnal indiviuals who
know that God exists and everybody knows God exists he has made it very clear (Romans
1:20) so every one is without execuse however there are few remnants in this world who
hate God, there do not want to submit unto God's will, thinking that there are wise and their
ways are better than God's, so in kindly God gives them up to the desires of their own evil
hearts and lusts, there become reprobrates with uncarnal mind that is so fiscated and akin
to sin, there do things which are ought not to be done, there engage in Homosexuality,
sodomy, pedophilia, child sacfrice, freemasonry, cults, satanism, witchcraft, sorcery, drugs,
there become
(Romans 1:29:32) filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness,
maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient
to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death,
not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

This what it means to be reprobate

Those who by default are left in their fallen human nature to sin
and to be eternally damned. It can be the only possible
consequence if, as Scripture declares, God has foreknown and
chosen others to eternal life through His only begotten Son, the
Lord Jesus Christ (Ephesians 1:4-5; Romans 9:24-25).
In Acts 13:48, we read, And all who were appointed for eternal
life believed. From this, we see that the decree of reprobation
is a result of unbelief or, rather, the decree of reprobation
results in unbelief. Some theologians declare from Scripture
that God foreknew some and reprobated others, prior to the
Fall of Adam. This is called supralapsarianism, from the
Latinsupra meaning above and lapsus, meaning fall. Others
maintain that foreknowledge and reprobation were decreed to
happen as a consequence of the Fall, and this is termed
infralapsarianism.

The existence of the state of reprobation can be deduced from the Scriptures
in many places, such as Proverbs 16:4 and Jeremiah 6:30, just to name
two. Although it describes the fact that God has rejected some, there is a
sense in which those whom He has rejected still serve His purposes,
despite their willful rebellion.
The best example is the raising up of Pharaoh in the book of Exodus. Here
was a man who clearly refused to obey God, despite Moses repeated
petitions to let the Israelites leave the land of Egypt. But the thing we note
about Pharaoh is that, despite his willful obstinacy, God was nevertheless
glorified through him. Reading Exodus 9:13-16, we note that God says He
could have wiped the whole of Egypt and Pharaoh out of existence were it
not for His wish to demonstrate His power and make His name known
throughout the earth
(Exodus 14:4,31). Clearly, God will fulfill all of His eternal purposes, both
through those whom He has foreknown (Philippians 2:13) and through
those whom He has rejectedthe reprobate (Romans 9:22). In both cases,
God will receive the highest honor and glory.

 Finally, the question that remains is whether we can

declare anyone to be reprobate in this life. Clearly, we
cannot. The doctrines of grace as purported by John
Calvin are both the hub and very essence of reformed
theology, but sadly some have taken them to the
extreme. Hypercalvinism, for example, dares to declare
that the taking of the gospel to the world is unnecessary
if God has already decreed those He would or wouldnt
save. However, John 3:16 would not say For God so
loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son that
whoever believes in Him should not perish but have
everlasting life if, indeed, we were privy to such secret
things as those who are reprobate. Our responsibility is
to preach the gospel to all men everywhere, pleading
with them to be reconciled to God (2 Corinthians 5:20).

If God does not care about sin ask them

why is there a hell?
Psalm 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into
hell, and all the nations that forget God
Isaiah 5:14 Therefore hell hath
enlarged herself, and opened her
mouth without measure: and their glory,
and their multitude, and their pomp,
and he that rejoiceth, shall descend
into it

Is Hollywood Reprobate? Yes and Christians

don't belong in such a wicked place
Job 26:6Hell is naked before
him, and destruction hath no
covering.
Psalm 55:15 Let death seize upon
them, and let them go down quick
into hell: for wickedness is in their
dwellings, and among them.

Reprobrates minds are also in the Church

The highest office in the land also has a

reprobrate mind leading the nation

Prevalent in all communities but mainly the

African community the reprobrate mind is
active

in the Middle East Christians struggle with this

reprobrate mind, there have been since the 7th
century

How deal with the Reprobrate.

Never back down

1. Preach the Gospel effectively
2. Start by using the law justly showing the sinner is
wrong ways and how is damned to hell if he or
she keeps in their way.
3. Make sure there are scared, that is the fear of
God in them and then relive them with the Good
news, because remember it is the kindness of
God that leads men to repentance.
4. Never back down when challenged by a
reprobrate mind, stand your ground on the word
of God and on the word alone that is your sword
in a fist fight.
