be_v not_o persuade_v that_o their_o practice_n in_o their_o ministry_n be_v not_o according_a to_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n but_o according_a to_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o false_a prophet_n and_o false_a apostle_n which_o the_o scripture_n testify_v against_o three_o because_o their_o maintenance_n in_o their_o ministry_n be_v not_o according_a to_o the_o
