the_o reason_n be_v as_o good_a for_o the_o one_o as_o the_o other_o 2_o all_o daniel_n prophecy_n be_v by_o strict_a command_n give_v forth_o to_o daniel_n again_o and_o again_o to_o be_v seal_v

the_o way_n of_o demonstration_n very_o unsafe_a for_o antichrist_n be_v christ_n ape_n act_v over_o those_o thing_n that_o christ_n himself_o do_v only_o with_o this_o difference_n the_o act_n as_o

and_o expression_n christ_n by_o his_o death_n and_o suffering_n cause_v virtual_o the_o jewish_a sacrifice_n and_o oblation_n to_o cease_v this_o be_v the_o time_n of_o its_o abrogation_n v._n 27._o
