Do you think it is the same Law God applies to His own for correction?

i believe these verses in romans 1.18 forward explain in remembrance to the Hebrews of the day of when Abraham was called out and made the 71st nation because all those in the earth had, at that time, ignored the only gospel given them at that time, turned it into a lie, and that gospel is the gospel of the stars, which if it is not known, there is the glorious announcement and fulfillment already expounded in the stars, for their very names give us the story of the redeemer Son and the redemptive plan of the agetimes:

One could get the notion that God will providentially enfore His Law,,, even during the Age of Grace? Like the old song says'

In verse 16, Paul spoke of salvation - but what are we saved from?
First and foremost, we are saved from the wrath of God which we righteously deserve.
In this portion of the letter (1:18-3:20) Paul's goal is not to proclaim the good news, but to demonstrate the absolute necessity of the good news of salvation from God's righteous wrath.

Inside the will of God there is no failure. Outside the will of God there is no success.

Also the final judgement is clear as a bell. For those that are unrepentant to Gods great Love and Mercy. Many are in denial of an eternal judgement.

Romans 1:18-32, like 1 Cor 6:9-10, is a clear description on the conditions or elements of judgement. Those who claim "my god would never judge me, blah, blah, blah" are in denial. It's as clear as a bell.

This is for me very interesting scripture because it shows God's justness. It shows that the wrath that will come upon the earth will come upon those who are WILLINGLY ignorant... they will know the way that is right and they will chose the other. It also shows that these things are known of God of these people from the beginning, but God allows it to be manifest fully. No one is going to stand before the HOLY and JUST God at the Great White Throne on Judgement day and say... gee God I didnt know... if only...
Wrath will come, and it will come Justly!
Behold, the goodness and the severity of GOD!!! Every knee with Bow and declare HIS Glory!!

8For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. 20For 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, 21because, 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. 22Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
24Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. 26For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.
28And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; 32who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
Romans 1:18-32
Just wanted to post this since not many preacher ever talk about the wrath of God. But talk about it or not, it is very real.
The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.
