because_o none_o be_v circumcise_v under_o the_o law_n but_o man_n child_n therefore_o none_o under_o the_o gospel_n but_o man_n child_n must_v be_v baptize_v but_o sir_n the_o limit_v of_o the_o

shall_v offer_v sacrifice_n so_o under_o the_o gospel_n the_o command_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o rule_n of_o saint_n and_o that_o be_v it_o that_o make_v thing_n lawful_a or_o unlawful_a the_o lord_n
