of_o god_n as_o paul_n teach_v galath_n 2._o and._n 5._o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o ascribe_v justification_n to_o work_n six_o we_o must_v keep_v faithful_o and_o pure_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n

the._n xxi_o question_n if_o faith_n only_o justify_v whether_o they_o the_o devil_n judas_n and_o such_o like_v be_v save_v if_o not_o then_o whether_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o man_n be_v
