this_o be_v without_o controversy_n to_o be_v understand_v not_o of_o the_o office_n but_o of_o the_o person_n of_o jesus_n christ_n not_o of_o his_o govern_n and_o kingly_a office_n as_o he_o be_v

shall_v not_o continue_v for_o ever_o the_o former_a do_v not_o necessary_o suppose_v the_o latter_a but_o the_o latter_a do_v necessary_o suppose_v the_o former_a christ_n can_v reign_v as_o god_n though_o he_o reign_v not_o as_o mediator_n but_o he_o can_v reign_v as_o mediator_n and_o not_o reign_v as_o god_n the_o object_n of_o the_o former_a be_v every_o creature_n the_o object_n of_o the_o

i_o shall_v return_v and_o now_o i_o desire_v all_o to_o consider_v it_o there_o be_v not_o one_o word_n in_o those_o three_o last_o verse_n of_o eph._n 1._o mediator_fw-la which_o will_v give_v any_o
