to_o be_v true_a as_o god_n have_v evident_o and_o clear_o reveal_v they_o to_o be_v true_a in_o his_o word_n it_o be_v true_a these_o thing_n we_o all_o know_v and_o we_o persuade_v ourselves_o that_o we_o do_v believe_v they_o do_v we_o not_o profess_v to_o believe_v that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v judge_v both_o quick_a and_o dead_a and_o that_o all_o shall_v receive_v reward_n according_a
