any_o that_o can_v be_v suppose_v to_o produce_v the_o like_a evidence_n for_o its_o veracity_n as_o i_o have_v just_a before_o observe_v last_o how_o can_v we_o have_v a_o gospel_n that_o can_v

another_o mediator_n after_o he_o who_o be_v once_o offer_v to_o bear_v the_o sin_n of_o many_o 28._o this_o lead_v to_o the_o three_o branch_n 3._o the_o scripture_n shut_v up_o all_o with_o this_o

that_o shall_v direct_v we_o to_o any_o other_o way_n by_o which_o we_o be_v to_o be_v save_v than_o that_o we_o have_v already_o receive_v and_o be_v therein_o record_v i_o have_v before_o observe_v

be_v once_o offer_v to_o bear_v the_o sin_n of_o many_o and_o unto_o they_o that_o look_v for_o he_o shall_v he_o appear_v the_o second_o time_n without_o a_o sin-offering_n unto_o salvation_n that_o be_v as_o there_o be_v no_o alteration_n in_o the_o state_n from_o death_n unto_o judgement_n but_o as_o man_n die_v so_o they_o will_v appear_v to_o be_v at_o judgement_n so_o there_o be_v no_o
