which_o ascribe_v the_o effect_n of_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n to_o his_o death_n can_v be_v draw_v to_o this_o sense_n moreover_o the_o scripture_n explain_v the_o way_n of_o the_o connexion_n

it_o be_v this_o that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n persuade_v we_o to_o that_o very_a thing_n that_o be_v require_v for_o the_o obtain_n remission_n of_o sin_n to_o wit_n faith_n or_o as_o socinus_n
