of_o peter_n in_o his_o sermon_n to_o cornelius_n of_o a_o truth_n i_o perceive_v 3â—_n act_n 10_o 34_o 3â—_n that_o god_n be_v no_o accepter_n of_o person_n but_o in_o every_o nation_n he_o that_o

1._o genesis_n 7_o 1._o as_o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o every_o beast_n and_o all_o cattle_n and_o every_o thing_n that_o creep_v and_o move_v upon_o the_o earth_n and_o every_o towle_n and_o every_o bird_n come_v into_o the_o ark_n unto_o noah_n now_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o all_o the_o beast_n and_o all_o the_o cattle_n and_o all_o the_o soul_n that_o then_o be_v do_v not_o

of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n that_o he_o heal_v every_o sickness_n 23._o math._n 4_o 23._o and_o every_o disease_n among_o the_o people_n now_o there_o be_v no_o man_n can_v imagine_v that_o he_o
