from_o which_o word_n it_o be_v clear_a that_o to_o eat_v christ_n body_n spiritual_o be_v to_o believe_v with_o the_o heart_n that_o christ_n be_v make_v man_n and_o take_v our_o sin_n upon_o

the_o righteousness_n and_o life_n of_o christ_n what_o do_v we_o but_o abide_v in_o our_o sin_n and_o death_n therefore_o christ_n himself_o say_v 6._o john_n 6._o except_o you_o eat_v the_o flesh_n
