difference_n the_o spirit_n do_v reside_v in_o christ_n and_o in_o other_o and_o this_o difference_n appear_v in_o two_o thing_n first_o in_o the_o universality_n of_o the_o gift_n in_o christ_n

every_o member_n as_o much_o as_o seem_v good_a to_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n 1_o cor._n 12.11_o for_o as_o the_o head_n be_v the_o common_a receptacle_n of_o all_o the_o sense_n and_o do_v
