Paul's Epistle to the Romans: John Murray (#18): Romans 1.25-27

The term "religious apostates" has now been adopted instead of the terms "secularists," "humanists" and "progressives," self-serving terms of an attempted decency when "religious apostasy" defines all those in the City of Man (Augustine's term).

Once finished with 1.18-32, the proposal is made to make a lengthy detour from Prof. Murray to survey the "pile-up" of nouns, adjectives, adverbs, verbs and participles in 1.18-32. Prof. Murray is doing an excellent job, but the section warrants a lengthy side-trip and detour for a while.

Again, since all are inescapably religious, the elect are saved and worship aright while all others are "religious apostates" serving their varied idols ("above God").
