who_o he_o justify_v its_o relative_a language_n shall_v be_v i_o justify_v thou_o i_o pardon_v or_o absolve_v thou_o for_o the_o same_o gift_n may_v have_v two_o uses_n as_o a_o ring_n in_o

by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n some_o think_v the_o spirit_n efficiency_n in_o justification_n be_v to_o give_v the_o comfort_n and_o the_o knowledge_n of_o it_o but_o that_o be_v no_o causality_n that_o may_v come_v forty_o year_n after_o the_o effect_n but_o this_o give_v a_o easy_a solution_n to_o the_o text_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n work_v faith_n which_o entitle_v to_o christ_n
