that_o god_n have_v pour_v forth_o of_o his_o holy_a and_o unerring_a spirit_n again_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v that_o without_o which_o none_o can_v obtain_v prophecy_n and_o vision_n and_o that_o prophecy_n and_o vision_n be_v christian-church_n gift_n then_o since_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o to_o be_v without_o prophecy_n and_o vision_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o
