say_v of_o abraham_n that_o he_o be_v holy_a because_o god_n call_v he_o from_o his_o own_o kindred_n and_o from_o his_o father_n house_n who_o be_v idolater_n and_o separate_v he_o from_o they_o to_o

of_o the_o law_n the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o every_o member_n thereof_o be_v to_o obey_v the_o gospel_n so_o many_o of_o they_o as_o obey_v the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n continue_v in_o the_o
