Romans 1:32
(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 whole pattern of evil becomes the lifestyle of people who continue to do (pres. tense implies continuing or habitual action) these very things in open defiance of God, a defiance aggravated
(a) by fully knowing (epignontes; cf. v. 28) that such things deserve death and
(b) by encouraging others in the same lifestyle. Such extremity of human rebellion against God fully warrants God’s condemnation.
