be_v find_v in_o every_o child_n of_o god_n only_o the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o the_o child_n of_o god_n always_o first_o every_o one_o that_o be_v regenerate_v do_v love_n god_n for_o where_o the_o

love_v towards_o he_o that_o which_o peter_n speak_v in_o his_o own_o behalf_n be_v general_o belong_v to_o every_o one_o who_o be_v effectual_o call_v 21.15_o lord_n thou_o know_v that_o i_o love_v thou_o saint_n paul_n say_v the_o love_n of_o god_n be_v shed_v abroad_o in_o our_o heart_n by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 5.5_o not_o only_o in_o his_o but_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o his_o child_n

he_o and_o his_o law_n 1.30_o man_n unregenerate_a be_v hater_n of_o god_n they_o neither_o love_v he_o nor_o his_o glory_n last_o that_o the_o godly_a do_v love_n god_n always_o be_v plain_a for_o who_o god_n love_v he_o love_v to_o the_o end_n even_o for_o ever_o therefore_o a_o man_n be_v once_o make_v partaker_n of_o god_n love_n in_o the_o regeneration_n of_o his_o heart_n can_v never_o
