two_o conclusion_n to_o be_v clear_v the_o first_o be_v this_o that_o whatsoever_o any_o man_n receive_v he_o conclus_fw-la 1_o have_v it_o from_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o true_a light_n that_o

every_o man_n that_o come_v into_o the_o world_n because_o every_o man_n that_o be_v enlighten_v have_v his_o light_n from_o he_o there_o be_v truth_n in_o that_o but_o that_o be_v not_o all_o the_o truth_n thus_o far_o it_o be_v undeniable_a that_o whatsoever_o light_n any_o man_n have_v he_o have_v it_o from_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v therefore_o call_v the_o sun_n of_o
