be_v pardonable_a in_o both_o you_o will_v reply_v that_o this_o argument_n prove_v too_o much_o for_o it_o prove_v that_o as_o a_o blasphemy_n against_o the_o h.g._n be_v unpardonable_a in_o the_o other_o life_n not_o only_o as_o to_o the_o punishment_n due_a to_o the_o sin_n but_o also_o as_o to_o the_o guilt_n or_o fault_n so_o other_o sin_n be_v pardonable_a in_o the_o other_o life_n not_o

we_o teach_v that_o mortal_a sin_n be_v not_o forgive_v as_o to_o the_o guilt_n or_o fault_n in_o the_o other_o world_n therefore_o this_o argument_n prove_v too_o much_o answer_n that_o a_o sin_n

the_o text_n import_v that_o a_o blasphemy_n against_o the_o h._n g._n be_v unpardonable_a in_o this_o life_n and_o the_o future_a it_o follow_v that_o nothing_o either_o the_o guilt_n or_o fault_n
