what_o be_v the_o general_a notion_n of_o a_o christian_a church_n who_o be_v true_a pastor_n but_o that_o the_o union_n of_o christian_n under_o true_a christian_a pastor_n make_v a_o church_n

and_o here_o the_o answerer_n spend_v several_a page_n in_o prove_v that_o the_o church_n must_v be_v one_o which_o no_o body_n that_o i_o know_v of_o deny_v and_o which_o he_o may_v find_v true_o
