gal._n 5._o it_o can_v be_v gather_v that_o love_n dispose_v unto_o justification_n but_o only_o we_o be_v teach_v what_o manner_n of_o faith_n that_o be_v whereby_o we_o be_v justify_v namely_o

when_o they_o be_v present_a as_o absent_a therefore_o if_o it_o can_v justify_v when_o they_o be_v absent_a it_o argue_v that_o the_o force_n of_o justify_v be_v not_o in_o it_o only_o but_o partly_o
