apostle_n peter_n to_o say_v 1_o pet._n 1.18_o you_o be_v not_o redeam_v with_o corruptible_a thing_n as_o gold_n and_o silver_n but_o with_o the_o precious_a blood_n of_o christ_n as_o of_o a_o

according_a to_o his_o own_o will_n it_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o seal_v up_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n by_o diverse_a miracle_n the_o apostle_n therefore_o call_v the_o spirit_n the_o
