What is a reprobate mind?

[azgal15]

I’m confused and terrified of Romans 1:27-29. Do reprobates know or care that they are reprobate?

This is a person who is so corrupted he has sold his soul to satan and has no desire to be saved.  He has knowingly and sneering  ascribed the beautiful works of God to satan.  Sometimes only God knows who they truly are because some unbelievers have done this before coming to faith in God and repenting.  They did this before coming to know how much Jesus loves them and suffered for them.

I'm not confused about it, and hope you soon will not be, @azgal15, but yes, be afraid but with a godly fear not a worldly fear, because theologically speaking reprobates are beyond redemption. They do not care that they are reprobates and this is evident by their disregard for the goodness of God that would otherwise lead them to repentance. 

Tit 1:15-16  Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.  (16)  They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
2Co 13:5  Examine yourselves, whether you be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know you not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except you be reprobates?

Why, does the discriptions of there behaviour match your behaviour?

Or do you seek to do what Romans 12:1+2 says?

 

Fear of something is based on a reason so examine yourself as 2 for 13:5 examine yourself to see if you are in the faith, Jesus is living in you unless you fail in the test.

 

If you are Jesus's you do not have to fear being abandoned.

An exercise for you. Find out all the physical, mental and spiritual abuse practise by the Romans when they crucified someone.

Then find out about how a crucified man slowly died and think. If Jesus did that for you, how willing is he to let you go because of an imagined sin.

Unfortunately, their minds are cauterized (1Tim 4:2) and, thus, they can't perceive that they are reprobate.
