from_o everlasting_a there_o be_v one_o only_a god_n that_o have_v no_o beginning_n and_o can_v have_v no_o end_n who_o be_v not_o a_o body_n as_o we_o be_v but_o a_o most_o pure_a spiritual_a be_v that_o know_v all_o thing_n and_o can_v do_v all_o thing_n and_o have_v all_o goodness_n and_o blessedness_n in_o himself_o this_o god_n be_v but_o one_o but_o yet_o three_o person_n the_o father_n
