commandment_n of_o christ_n whatsoever_o christ_n have_v command_v his_o apostle_n 4_o as_o these_o and_o as_o these_o alone_a and_o all_o these_o must_v be_v teach_v so_o they_o must_v be_v teach_v

give_v in_o the_o gospel_n especial_o since_o the_o exhibition_n of_o christ_n by_o god_n as_o redeem_v we_o by_o christ_n already_o come_v therefore_o call_v christ_n commandment_n and_o so_o
