therefore_o as_o the_o believer_n in_o christ_n when_o they_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n be_v right_o say_v to_o have_v receive_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n so_o christ_n when_o he_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o adoption_n of_o son_n may_v be_v right_o say_v to_o have_v receive_v the_o adoption_n of_o son_n and_o we_o leave_v every_o one_o to_o gather_v from_o these_o word_n if_o the_o cite_a father_n can_v believe_v transubstantiation_n and_o if_o he_o do_v not_o think_v that_o baptism_n be_v as_o true_o the_o adoption_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o the_o eucharist_n be_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n which_o these_o of_o rome_n acknowledge_v be_v only_o to_o be_v mean_v in_o a_o moral_a sense_n that_o the_o father_n call_v this_o
