be_v endue_v with_o it_o for_o else_o he_o will_v not_o have_v acknowledge_v the_o effectual_a faith_n the_o diligent_a love_n and_o patient_a hope_n of_o the_o thessalonian_n and_o that_o they_o 3._o

i_o believe_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n which_o before_o he_o false_o object_v to_o us._n if_o they_o do_v believe_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o their_o sin_n why_o do_v they_o then_o by_o this_o

of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o his_o own_o sin_n then_o what_o do_v his_o faith_n differ_v from_o the_o devil_n faith_n who_o believe_v and_o tremble_v as_o saint_n james_n say_v and_o what_o be_v
