word_n if_o we_o do_v examine_v the_o coherence_n by_o the_o precedent_n and_o subsequent_a verse_n the_o apostle_n collect_v for_o we_o two_o most_o necessary_a rule_n 1._o what_o and_o why_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o judge_v one_o another_o especial_o in_o matter_n of_o religion_n and_o conscience_n 2._o what_o and_o how_o far_o we_o may_v and_o be_v bind_v in_o conscience_n to_o judge_v
