Mech
 * God allows us to reap our own sins as judgement against us
 * He does not do so fully now, because that would be hell?

VERSES Romans 1 (main text) 2 Corinthians 3:12-4:6 Israel minds made dull, God blinded general unbelievers, on conversion veil is removed Ephesians 4:18 gentiles are darkened in their understanding, lost all sensitivity. Gave themselves over (as opposed to God doing it) John 5:14 illness caused by sin Jeremiah 8:7 comparison to migration. Thinking, if storks don't migrate they freeze. Right now God is sheltering us from the freeze because we haven't listed to his warning and moved to the north, (to the promised land?). In this analogy, God is less 'giving us over' and more 'unsheilding' us.I think both are roughly true. The active 'giving over' is supported by Gods continous sustaining all things. Ps 81:11-12 my ppl wouldn't listen so I gave them over to their stubborn hearts to follow their own devices Romans 11:8 gave spirit of stupor, eyes that could not see...to this very day Romans 11:32 "For God has bound everyone over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all."
 * 1 Desires of the heart (worship, soul)
 * 2 Lusts (heart, desire, instinct loaded)
 * 3 Depraved mind (disobedience and whatnot)

We give ourselves over: Eph 4:19 "they have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality...."
