neither_o be_v charity_n that_o fruit_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n whereby_o the_o spirit_n of_o adoption_n cause_v we_o to_o cry_v abba_n father_n but_o faith_n for_o although_o by_o charity_n we_o may_v be_v declare_v or_o know_v to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n yet_o we_o become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n not_o by_o charity_n but_o by_o faith_n joh._n 1._o 12._o gal._n 3._o 26._o and_o
