God's existence is evident through creation, revealing His invisible attributes, eternal power, and divine nature since the world's beginning. Humanity is without excuse for not acknowledging Him, as these truths are clearly seen in what has been made. Yet, many suppress this truth in unrighteousness, refusing to honor or thank God, becoming futile in thought and darkened in heart. They exchange truth for lies, worshiping creation over the Creator. Despite clear testimony of a Designer in Earth and life, they devise theories to deny Him, showing enmity. God's wrath is against such suppression, and He will hold them accountable, destroying worldly wisdom, for they knowingly reject what He has plainly shown.

Romans 1:18-21 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
