our_o measure_n of_o the_o evil_a and_o danger_n of_o sin_n from_o the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o tell_v we_o 1_o cor._n 6.9_o 10._o that_o the_o covetous_a as_o well_o as_o drunkard_n and_o whoremonger_n shall_v not_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o this_o will_v teach_v parent_n not_o only_o to_o mourn_v over_o a_o debauch_a child_n but_o also_o over_o a_o covetous_a though_o he_o be_v a_o wealthy_a child_n 2._o
