to_o make_v they_o his_o own_o for_o faith_n put_v on_o christ_n and_o clothes_n we_o with_o christ_n yea_o it_o eat_v and_o drink_v he_o who_o be_v the_o son_n of_o the_o live_a god_n and_o so_o make_v christ_n its_o own_o indeed_o through_o faith_n christ_n be_v form_v in_o we_o and_o we_o again_o be_v form_v in_o he_o and_o christ_n and_o we_o be_v so_o make_v one_o another_o through_o

yet_o no_o other_o than_o all_o believer_n have_v who_o have_v receive_v the_o spirit_n as_o the_o same_o apostle_n show_v 1_o cor._n 2.12_o where_o he_o say_v we_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o
