every_o word_n in_o the_o text_n be_v a_o argument_n but_o the_o jesuite_n answer_v two_o thing_n 2_o first_o that_o the_o apostle_n say_v not_o the_o scripture_n alone_o be_v sufficient_a to_o

can_v make_v i_o perfect_a and_o absolute_a to_o every_o work_n second_o because_o the_o duty_n whereunto_o the_o scripture_n be_v profitable_a contain_v a_o sufficient_a doctrine_n of_o salvation_n we_o do_v not_o say_v the_o scripture_n be_v profitable_a therefore_o sufficient_a but_o it_o be_v profitable_a to_o every_o thing_n therefore_o sufficient_a thus_o i_o reason_n they_o teach_v they_o

sufficient_a which_o make_v he_o absolute_a and_o perfect_a to_o every_o good_a work_n but_o such_o be_v the_o scripture_n therefore_o they_o be_v sufficient_a moreover_o that_o must_v needs_o be_v
