they_o err_v christ_n himself_o show_v verse_n 64._o and_o the_o manner_n wherein_o they_o fail_v he_o declare_v in_o the_o 64._o verse_n be_v because_o they_o do_v not_o eat_v he_o spiritual_o by_o

have_v eternal_a life_n and_o i_o will_v raise_v he_o up_o at_o the_o last_o day_n so_o in_o the_o 40._o verse_n he_o say_v this_o be_v the_o will_n of_o he_o that_o send_v i_o that_o whosoever_o see_v the_o son_n and_o believe_v in_o he_o shall_v have_v everlasting_a life_n and_o i_o will_v raise_v he_o up_o at_o the_o last_o day_n wherefore_o see_v he_o show_v they_o so_o plain_o that_o the_o effect_n of_o eat_v and_o believe_v be_v but_o one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n they_o may_v the_o more_o easy_o have_v understand_v that_o by_o eat_v and_o believe_v he_o mean_v but_o only_o
