with_o the_o father_n nor_o any_o promise_n of_o the_o eternal_a inheritance_n and_o it_o must_v have_v be_v as_o the_o apostle_n argue_v if_o christ_n be_v not_o rise_v our_o preach_n be_v vain_a

the_o righteous_a who_o be_v the_o propitiation_n for_o our_o sin_n therefore_o the_o ransom_n which_o he_o pay_v be_v satisfactory_a for_o all_o that_o be_v save_v and_o by_o consequence_n though_o
