be_v sufficient_a not_o to_o miss_v believe_v former_o other_o truth_n to_o constitute_v a_o man_n a_o member_n of_o chirst_n church_n i_o answer_v second_o that_o the_o same_o god_n who_o trust_v

though_o not_o express_v in_o the_o apostle_n creed_n as_o concern_v the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n and_o the_o eucharist_n etc._n etc._n the_o church_n have_v therefore_o always_o from_o the_o
