this_o manner_n this_o be_v the_o reason_n which_o the_o apostle_n give_v why_o the_o gentile_n be_v give_v up_o to_o such_o moral_a and_o practical_a wickedness_n as_o they_o be_v rom._n 1._o 21_o 24._o because_o when_o they_o know_v god_n viz._n by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n they_o do_v not_o glorify_v he_o as_o god_n give_v that_o honour_n and_o respect_n unto_o he_o which_o they_o can_v

that_o god_n in_o his_o just_a judgement_n sometime_o give_v up_o man_n to_o this_o height_n of_o speculative_a wickedness_n to_o turn_v heretical_a blasphemer_n because_o when_o they_o know_v god_n by_o the_o light_n of_o the_o word_n they_o do_v not_o glorify_v he_o as_o god_n by_o serve_v he_o according_a to_o his_o will_n reveal_v therefore_o have_v he_o thus_o give_v they_o up_o unto_o
