elect_v or_o no_o 1._o look_v after_o your_o faith_n 2._o whether_o the_o love_n of_o god_n be_v in_o you_o through_o jesus_n christ_n beside_o these_o i_o shall_v propound_v no_o more_o for_o though_o there_o be_v a_o great_a help_n ofttimes_o in_o the_o number_n of_o sign_n and_o mark_n as_o many_o star_n make_v the_o darkness_n light_n yet_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v ofttimes_o that_o be_v
