thyself_o first_o those_o that_o religious_o name_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n shall_v must_v depart_v from_o iniquity_n because_o else_o our_o profession_n of_o he_o be_v but_o a_o lie_n 1.6_o if_o

they_o be_v self-deceiver_n i_o tell_v you_o but_o now_o such_o lie_n to_o themselves_o and_o so_o consequent_o they_o deceive_v themselves_o but_o be_v you_o doer_n of_o the_o word_n 1.22_o not_o
