rolloaus_n about_o the_o coherence_n most_o interpreter_n judge_v thus_o that_o here_o be_v a_o proof_n that_o god_n be_v with_o we_o because_o he_o have_v give_v up_o his_o own_o son_n for_o we_o

you_o god_n will_v free_o give_v you_o all_o thing_n you_o need_v and_o this_o he_o prove_v by_o a_o argument_n from_o the_o great_a to_o the_o less_o he_o which_o give_v his_o own_o son_n will_v
