blame_n of_o all_o and_o be_v liable_a to_o the_o execution_n of_o all_o this_o in_o his_o own_o soul_n therefore_o though_o he_o be_v manifest_a in_o flesh_n as_o one_o condemn_v in_o that_o flesh_n yet_o the_o power_n of_o his_o godhead_n raise_v he_o up_o from_o under_o the_o power_n of_o death_n and_o declare_v he_o as_o a_o righteous_a person_n one_o that_o be_v accept_v for_o and_o that_o

of_o this_o mystery_n that_o god_n shall_v be_v justify_v in_o spirit_n that_o god_n shall_v manifest_v himself_o be_v a_o wonder_n and_o especial_o in_o flesh_n but_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v
