and_o uncleanness_n but_o also_o the_o appearance_n of_o they_o hence_o boaz_n when_o ruth_n lie_v down_o at_o his_o foot_n in_o the_o night_n as_o claim_v marriage_n by_o right_n he_o not_o only_o

can_v true_o hate_v sin_n or_o the_o appearance_n of_o it_o for_o it_o be_v his_o nature_n and_o element_n they_o can_v only_o hate_v the_o damage_n and_o disgrace_n and_o discredit_v of_o it_o and_o sin_n so_o a_o whore_n may_v hate_v whoredom_n it_o be_v only_o the_o property_n of_o god_n child_n and_o the_o newborn_a to_o hate_v sin_n as_o sin_n with_o the_o sinful_a appearance_n of_o it_o as_o opposite_a to_o their_o new_a and_o heavenly_a nature_n in_o jesus_n christ_n i_o now_o come_v to_o the_o three_o head_n of_o the_o trial_n of_o spiritual_a health_n and_o strength_n and_o that_o respect_v our_o conversation_n with_o man_n in_o which_o first_o i_o argue_v that_o it_o be_v a_o strong_a argument_n of_o a_o strong_a constitution_n good_a and_o spiritual_a health_n when_o we_o can_v make_v it_o our_o work_n and_o trade_n to_o aim_v at_o glorify_v our_o maker_n in_o do_v good_a to_o man_n thus_o our_o great_a example_n christ_n jesus_n make_v it_o his_o work_n and_o trade_n to_o go_v about_o to_o do_v good_a which_o he_o do_v abundant_o and_o constant_o to_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n of_o man_n obj._n christ_n jesus_n and_o his_o apostle_n and_o messenger_n be_v

answer_v as_o a_o holy_a witness_n of_o christ_n jesus_n a_o woman_n once_o answer_v a_o bishop_n i_o be_o a_o member_n of_o christ_n jesus_n as_o well_o as_o peter_n jesus_n himself_o the_o least_o
