god_n by_o a_o christian_a conversation_n but_o that_o he_o do_v believe_v &_o trust_v in_o god_n what_o make_v the_o difference_n between_o saint_n and_o sinner_n between_o the_o reprobate_n and_o the_o righteous_a between_o judas_n &_o peter_n but_o only_o trust_v &_o want_v of_o trust_n in_o god_n wherefore_o be_v the_o world_n &_o all_o that_o therein_o be_v at_o the_o the_o first_o create_v
