be_v and_o may_v be_v receive_v through_o faith_n and_o comfort_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n by_o they_o who_o do_v true_o take_v heed_n to_o the_o manifestation_n of_o god_n holy_a spirit_n in_o

if_o ever_o they_o come_v to_o a_o true_a knowledge_n of_o the_o love_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n testify_v unto_o in_o old_a time_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v good_a for_o all_o to_o consider_v
