may_v be_v attain_v to_o because_o a_o christian_a may_v be_v certain_a of_o the_o promise_n therefore_o of_o the_o undeniable_a conclusion_n from_o they_o a_o christian_a may_v be_v certain_a of_o

it_o be_v god_n love_n to_o we_o that_o make_v we_o love_v he_o and_o doubtless_o he_o that_o love_v we_o so_o as_o to_o make_v we_o love_v he_o can_v but_o love_v we_o when_o we_o do_v love_v he_o
