the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n i_o conceive_v the_o lord_n christ_n in_o this_o answer_n do_v clear_o confirm_v the_o law_n as_o a_o rule_n of_o obedience_n by_o his_o authority_n 1._o he_o do_v

of_o obedience_n to_o his_o people_n again_o how_o frequent_o do_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o apostle_n establish_v the_o law_n as_o a_o rule_n of_o obedience_n for_o his_o people_n what_o be_v those_o thing_n which_o the_o apostle_n by_o the_o authority_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o name_n require_v of_o christian_n but_o thing_n command_v in_o the_o law_n and_o what_o be_v
