The nations, are in ignorance. Satan has blinded the mind of unbelievers. What good is bad, and what is bad is good. Today 's free thinking attitude, that everything is "relative ", there is no right or wrong, is darkened understanding. It is ignorant to Jehovah God 's standards that are laid out in the Bible. People are accustomed to making up what they think is right, and live by their own imperfect principles. This alienates them from God.

My understanding is we are losted because of the knowledge of God. It takes the whole body of Christ too function together, because God did not intend for us to exist without each other. God has formed us, filled us and now He wants to make us all as a body to function together. We need each other, therefore, we cannot disconnect our body from Christ.

People are destroyed for lack of the Knowledge of God, SOME REFUSE THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, GOD HAS TURNED SOME OVER TO REPROBATION, BECAUSE THEY DIDNOT LIKE TO RETAIN GOD IN THEIR KNOWLEDGE

walking in self-righteousness and not in God's righteousness caused them to have their hearts and minds darkened. This leads to a reprobate mind if not repented of in sincerity and truth.
