of_o god_n worship_n or_o one_o way_n by_o which_o we_o yield_v worship_n to_o god_n hence_o that_o the_o apostle_n account_v it_o a_o great_a loss_n if_o the_o people_n can_v say_v amen_o when_o

of_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o saint_n will_v cause_v much_o thanksgiving_n to_o god_n 9.12.13_o and_o in_o the_o 4._o of_o the_o 2._o of_o cor._n he_o show_v that_o the_o thanksgiving_n of_o
