nature_n of_o they_o it_o be_v true_a god_n be_v present_a with_o every_o creature_n when_o we_o eat_v and_o drink_v at_o our_o table_n god_n be_v present_a there_o but_o we_o can_v be_v say_v to_o draw_v nigh_o to_o god_n and_o worship_n god_n there_o for_o we_o there_o look_v for_o no_o further_a presence_n of_o god_n with_o we_o in_o they_o to_o convey_v further_a good_a than_o the_o lord_n have_v put_v into_o the_o nature_n of_o those_o thing_n only_o when_o godly_a people_n take_v they_o and_o receive_v they_o as_o blessing_n sanctify_v by_o the_o word_n they_o take_v they_o as_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n that_o come_v out_o of_o love_n to_o they_o but_o now_o when_o we_o come_v to_o receive_v that_o which_o be_v call_v the_o communion_n there_o we_o expect_v thing_n that_o be_v beyond_o the_o nature_n of_o these_o creature_n to_o convey_v that_o that_o be_v by_o a_o institution_n of_o god_n set_v apart_o for_o supernatural_a use_n and_o end_n not_o to_o convey_v in_o any_o natural_a way_n such_o and_o such_o thing_n but_o in_o a_o supernatural_a way_n through_o the_o institution_n of_o god_n and_o so_o it_o come_v to_o be_v worship_n have_v we_o not_o i_o say_v a_o command_n for_o this_o it_o be_v superstition_n and_o idolatry_n for_o we_o to_o make_v use_n of_o such_o creature_n for_o such_o end_n if_o any_o man_n in_o the_o world_n shall_v have_v appoint_v a_o piece_n of_o bread_n or_o a_o draught_n of_o wine_n to_o have_v signify_v and_o seal_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n it_o have_v be_v superstition_n in_o any_o and_o will-worship_n and_o sinful_a and_o abominable_a to_o you_o but_o we_o be_v to_o look_v upon_o god_n set_v apart_o these_o creature_n for_o such_o holy_a and_o solemn_a end_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o come_v to_o be_v exercise_v in_o they_o we_o come_v to_o worship_n god_n and_o we_o come_v likewise_o to_o tender_v up_o our_o homage_n to_o god_n when_o we_o come_v to_o attend_v upon_o he_o in_o such_o ordinance_n as_o these_o be_v to_o tender_v up_o that_o homage_n that_o be_v due_a from_o we_o poor_a creature_n unto_o such_o a_o infinite_a and_o glorious_a god_n and_o therefore_o we_o draw_v nigh_o to_o he_o in_o these_o second_o we_o must_v santifie_v god_n name_n in_o draw_v nigh_o to_o he_o whatsoever_o we_o do_v whether_o we_o eat_v or_o drink_v we_o must_v do_v all_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n now_o if_o your_o common_a eat_n and_o drink_v we_o must_v do_v all_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n than_o certanly_a in_o this_o spiritual_a eat_n and_o drink_v there_o must_v be_v some_o special_a thing_n do_v for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o this_o 1._o because_o there_o be_v so_o much_o of_o god_n in_o it_o for_o here_o there_o be_v a_o present_v before_o we_o the_o great_a yea_o the_o great_a mystery_n of_o salvation_n and_o deep_a counsel_n of_o god_n concern_v eternal_a life_n be_v present_v before_o we_o in_o these_o outward_a element_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n and_o action_n thereof_o now_o when_o we_o come_v to_o eat_v and_o to_o drink_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v appoint_v to_o set_v forth_o the_o great_a mystery_n of_o salvation_n and_o the_o deep_a of_o the_o counsel_n of_o god_n concern_v man_n eternal_a good_a wherein_o especal_o god_n will_v glorify_v himself_o we_o have_v need_v there_o sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n for_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v very_o great_a and_o glorious_a that_o be_v present_v unto_o we_o 2._o this_o ordinance_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n or_o the_o communion_n it_o be_v a_o ordinance_n that_o christ_n have_v leave_v to_o his_o church_n out_o of_o the_o abundance_n of_o his_o love_n and_o therefore_o you_o shall_v find_v if_o you_o read_v in_o the_o institution_n of_o it_o in_o the_o 25_o of_o matthew_n that_o the_o same_o night_n wherein_o christ_n be_v betray_v he_o take_v bread_n and_o break_v it_o though_o christ_n be_v to_o die_v the_o next_o day_n and_o to_o encounter_v with_o the_o warth_fw-mi of_o god_n yea_o that_o very_a night_n he_o be_v to_o be_v in_o a_o agony_n and_o to_o sweat_v drop_n of_o water_n and_o blood_n and_o the_o next_o day_n to_o die_v and_o to_o have_v these_o trial_n of_o wrath_n power_v upon_o he_o so_o as_o to_o put_v he_o to_o cry_v out_o my_o god_n my_o god_n why_o have_v thou_o forsake_v i_o yet_o he_o busy_v his_o thought_n that_o every_o night_n to_o institute_v this_o supper_n sure_o this_o must_v be_v a_o great_a ordinance_n &_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o love_n of_o christ_n in_o it_o christ_n see_v that_o his_o church_n have_v need_n of_o it_o that_o he_o shall_v that_o night_n when_o he_o be_v betray_v have_v his_o thought_n busy_v about_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o this_o be_v one_o will_v think_v at_o that_o time_n that_o he_o have_v enough_o to_o take_v up_o his_o thought_n concern_v himself_o be_v to_o encounter_v with_o the_o law_n and_o with_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n for_o man_n sin_n but_o for_o all_o that_o great_a work_n christ_n have_v to_o encounter_v with_o yet_o his_o thought_n be_v busy_v about_o this_o great_a ordinance_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o supper_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v great_a love_n in_o it_o christ_n see_v that_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o great_a moment_n now_o if_o it_o be_v so_o then_o there_o be_v great_a cause_n why_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o such_o a_o ordinance_n as_o this_o be_v and_o not_o to_o account_v it_o as_o a_o common_a and_o ordinary_a thing_n 3._o we_o must_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o this_o because_o it_o be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o of_o our_o communion_n with_o christ_n wherein_o we_o come_v to_o have_v such_o a_o near_a union_n and_o communion_n with_o he_o as_o to_o eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o to_o drink_v his_o blood_n and_o to_o sit_v at_o his_o table_n we_o come_v to_o have_v communion_n with_o christ_n even_o in_o all_o our_o sense_n now_o christ_n come_v so_o full_o to_o we_o that_o call_v upon_o we_o to_o sanctify_v his_o name_n when_o we_o come_v before_o he_o 4._o in_o this_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v seal_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n come_v to_o be_v seal_v in_o both_o the_o part_n of_o it_o now_o when_o we_o come_v to_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o god_n in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n both_o to_o have_v the_o seal_n on_o his_o part_n and_o the_o seal_n on_o we_o sure_o this_o must_v needs_o call_v for_o a_o sanctify_a use_n of_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o be_v so_o holy_a as_o this_o be_v and_o that_o be_v the_o first_o reason_n why_o we_o be_v to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o this_o because_o if_o we_o be_v in_o ordinary_a eat_n and_o drink_v we_o must_v do_v it_o then_o in_o this_o wherein_o there_o be_v so_o much_o of_o god_n wherein_o the_o mystery_n of_o godliness_n be_v set_v before_o we_o wherein_o there_o be_v so_o much_o of_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n wherein_o we_o be_v to_o have_v close_a communion_n with_o jesus_n christ_n and_o wherein_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n come_v to_o be_v seal_v on_o both_o side_n there_o have_v need_v therefore_o be_v sanctify_v of_o god_n name_n in_o the_o use_n of_o it_o second_o consider_v this_o that_o there_o be_v no_o duty_n in_o all_o the_o book_n of_o god_n that_o i_o know_v of_o that_o be_v urge_v with_o more_o strength_n and_o severity_n than_o this_o be_v as_o in_o that_o place_n 1_o cor._n 11._o show_v where_o you_o have_v require_v of_o every_o one_o that_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n that_o they_o shall_v examine_v themselves_o and_o so_o eat_v and_o you_o have_v the_o most_o dreadful_a expression_n against_o those_o that_o do_v not_o do_v it_o that_o i_o know_v be_v mention_v against_o the_o neglect_n of_o any_o duty_n in_o all_o the_o book_n of_o god_n there_o the_o holy_a ghost_n faith_n that_o whosoever_o eat_v and_o drink_v unworthy_o first_o he_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o then_o second_o he_o eat_v and_o drink●_n his_o own_o damnation_n these_o two_o expression_n have_v as_o much_o dreadfulness_n in_o they_o as_o can_v be_v imagine_v and_o we_o do_v not_o find_v a_o exhortation_n to_o a_o duty_n back_v with_o two_o such_o severe_a expression_n in_o case_n we_o shall_v neglect_v our_o duty_n as_o this_o exhortation_n what_o if_o we_o do_v not_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o this_o duty_n we_o come_v to_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n blood_n guiltiness_n be_v a_o terrible_a thing_n you_o know_v david_n cry_v out_o lord_n deliver_v i_o from_o blood_n guiltiness_n to_o have_v but_o the_o blood_n of_o a_o ordinary_a man_n
wine_n certain_o it_o have_v be_v a_o disorderly_a way_n therefore_o for_o people_n to_o sit_v up_o and_o down_o in_o their_o pew_v every_o where_o in_o the_o congregation_n and_o for_o the_o minister_n to_o go_v up_o and_o down_o after_o they_o so_o that_o they_o can_v see_v nothing_o nor_o scarce_o hear_v any_o thing_n it_o be_v much_o for_o the_o attain_v the_o end_n of_o the_o

in_o my_o kingdom_n that_o you_o may_v eat_v and_o drink_v the_o twelve_o tribe_n of_o israel_n as_o if_o christ_n shall_v say_v you_o can_v sit_v with_o i_o at_o my_o table_n here_o and_o know_v that_o this_o sit_v with_o i_o at_o my_o table_n it_o be_v but_o as_o it_o be_v a_o praeludium_n a_o foresignification_n of_o the_o communion_n that_o you_o shall_v have_v with_o i_o in_o my_o

that_o the_o gesture_n in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o a_o mere_a indifferent_a thing_n heretofore_o it_o have_v be_v think_v unreasonable_a to_o contend_v for_o what_o gesture_n we_o shall_v use_v now_o that_o which_o have_v be_v the_o institution_n of_o christ_n and_o have_v a_o spiritual_a significancy_n in_o it_o be_v not_o indifferent_a for_o not_o only_o the_o eat_v the_o bread_n and_o

of_o these_o ordinance_n that_o one_o reason_n from_o whence_o it_o have_v the_o name_n or_o otherwise_o as_o some_o will_v have_v it_o sacramentum_fw-la because_o it_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v

to_o lie_v upon_o one_o to_o shed_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o vile_a rogue_n that_o live_v in_o a_o murderous_a way_n it_o will_v lie_v upon_o the_o conscience_n and_o be_v very_o terrible_a it_o be_v

for_o i_o bring_v they_o only_o now_o to_o show_v that_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o it_o that_o we_o do_v sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o this_o ordinance_n three_o there_o be_v

in_o the_o holiness_n of_o this_o ordinance_n god_n have_v put_v much_o honour_n upon_o it_o i_o confess_v some_o man_n may_v use_v it_o superstitious_o though_o it_o be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o

they_o dare_v not_o come_v if_o their_o conscience_n tell_v they_o that_o they_o live_v in_o some_o sin_n i_o know_v one_o myself_o once_o that_o be_v to_o be_v execute_v and_o he_o have_v never_o

second_o this_o ordinance_n it_o must_v be_v receive_v in_o a_o holy_a communion_n there_o must_v be_v a_o communion_n of_o saint_n for_o this_o ordinance_n and_o it_o can_v be_v receive_v any_o

therefore_o there_o ought_v to_o be_v hunger_a and_o thirst_a desire_n of_o the_o soul_n after_o jesus_n christ_n therefore_o you_o must_v take_v heed_n you_o do_v not_o come_v with_o your_o stomach_n

these_o outward_a clement_n do_v signify_v and_o that_o they_o do_v seal_v the_o great_a benefit_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o according_a to_o the_o institution_n to_o be_v sing_v of_o psalm_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n while_o the_o sacrament_n be_v receive_v and_o so_o to_o have_v your_o thought_n about_o other_o thing_n sing_v of_o psalm_n in_o its_o due_a

for_o the_o church_n to_o join_v together_o and_o sing_v a_o psalm_n in_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n and_o then_o they_o must_v mind_v all_o the_o same_o thing_n together_o for_o that_o be_v the_o

observe_v this_o do_v but_o keep_v to_o the_o institution_n in_o the_o sacrament_n though_o you_o may_v think_v it_o a_o more_o mean_a way_n yet_o you_o will_v find_v a_o great_a beauty_n in_o this_o

and_o excellency_n do_v appear_v in_o the_o ordinance_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o when_o any_o man_n shall_v mix_v any_o of_o his_o own_o invention_n though_o he_o may_v do_v it_o to_o a_o good_a

put_v upon_o it_o it_o do_v rather_o take_v off_o the_o lustre_n and_o glory_n of_o the_o sacrament_n then_o be_v the_o institution_n of_o christ_n glorious_a when_o there_o be_v no_o mixture_n among_o they_o thus_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o receive_v this_o holy_a sacrament_n you_o have_v have_v divers_a thing_n propound_v to_o you_o whereby_o you_o may_v come_v to_o know_v and_o easy_o to_o see_v that_o there_o have_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o dishonour_n do_v to_o this_o sacrament_n and_o the_o beauty_n and_o glory_n of_o it_o have_v be_v darken_v and_o the_o sweet_a that_o the_o saint_n may_v otherwise_o have_v receive_v in_o partake_v have_v be_v exceed_o hinder_v there_o be_v but_o one_o thing_n more_o that_o i_o shall_v propound_v to_o you_o and_o that_o be_v the_o several_a meditation_n that_o we_o shall_v meditate_v on_o in_o receive_v of_o the_o sacrament_n the_o most_o concern_v meditation_n be_v suggest_v in_o the_o holy_a communion_n that_o be_v in_o any_o thing_n whatsoever_o more_o concern_v more_o efficacious_a more_o various_a meditation_n we_o have_v suggest_v here_o than_o in_o any_o thing_n and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a sign_n that_o man_n and_o woman_n do_v not_o discern_v the_o lord_n body_n if_o so_o be_v their_o meditation_n be_v barren_a at_o that_o time_n i_o will_v therefore_o suggest_v some_o nine_o or_o ten_o meditation_n that_o that_o ordinance_n of_o god_n may_v hold_v out_o very_o plain_o and_o familiar_o to_o every_o communicant_a for_o the_o busy_a of_o their_o thought_n all_o the_o time_n that_o action_n be_v a_o do_v meditation_n 1._o as_o first_o that_o the_o way_n of_o man_n salvation_n it_o be_v by_o a_o mediator_n it_o be_v not_o only_o by_o god_n mercy_n god_n say_v that_o he_o be_v offend_v by_o sin_n but_o he_o will_v be_v content_a to_o pass_v it_o by_o no_o but_o it_o be_v through_o a_o mediator_n now_o this_o meditation_n be_v suggest_v thus_o when_o i_o see_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n if_o i_o discern_v what_o that_o signify_v it_o will_v hold_v out_o this_o to_o i_o that_o the_o way_n of_o man_n salvation_n it_o be_v not_o mere_o from_o hence_o that_o god_n say_v well_o i_o will_v pardon_v they_o and_o no_o more_o but_o there_o be_v require_v a_o great_a work_n of_o god_n to_o make_v a_o atonement_n between_o sinner_n and_o himself_o this_o sacrament_n do_v hold_v forth_o thus_o much_o unto_o we_o wherefore_o else_o have_v we_o bread_n and_o wine_n but_o to_o signify_v that_o the_o way_n of_o our_o reconciliation_n it_o must_v be_v through_o a_o mediator_n med._n 2._o the_o second_o meditation_n be_v this_o that_o this_o mediator_n that_o stand_v between_o god_n and_o we_o be_v very_o and_o true_o man_n he_o have_v take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o the_o bread_n that_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o wine_n of_o his_o blood_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o meditate_v of_o the_o humane_a
nature_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o this_o be_v a_o meditation_n that_o have_v abundance_n that_o may_v spring_v out_o of_o it_o what_o have_v the_o son_n of_o god_n take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o have_v he_o body_n and_o blood_n and_o human_a nature_n upon_o he_o oh_o how_o have_v god_n honour_v humane_a nature_n then_o let_v not_o i_o abuse_v my_o body_n to_o lust_n to_o wickedness_n see_v that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v take_v the_o body_n of_o man_n upon_o he_o humane_a nature_n upon_o he_o let_v i_o honour_v humane_a nature_n that_o be_v so_o near_o unite_v to_o the_o divine_a nature_n that_o be_v the_o second_o meditation_n med._n 3._o here_o be_v present_v unto_o we_o what_o this_o mediator_n have_v do_v for_o the_o reconcile_n of_o we_o unto_o god_n that_o his_o body_n be_v break_v he_o have_v subject_v himself_o to_o the_o break_n of_o his_o body_n and_o to_o the_o pour_v forth_o of_o his_o blood_n for_o the_o reconcile_n of_o we_o it_o be_v not_o mere_o as_o before_o that_o god_n say_v i_o will_v pardon_v they_o but_o christ_n undertake_v to_o make_v peace_n between_o his_o father_n and_o we_o it_o cost_v he_o the_o break_n of_o his_o body_n and_o the_o pour_v forth_o of_o his_o blood_n this_o be_v a_o useful_a meditation_n oh_o what_o shall_v we_o be_v willing_a to_o suffer_v for_o jesus_n christ_n in_o our_o body_n even_o to_o resist_v unto_o blood_n see_v christ_n have_v be_v content_a to_o have_v his_o precious_a body_n break_v and_o his_o blood_n shed_v for_o we_o med._n 4._o again_o a_o four_o meditation_n be_v this_o that_o here_o we_o come_v to_o see_v we_o have_v occasion_n of_o meditate_v of_o what_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o we_o be_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o god_n save_v it_o be_v the_o blood_n of_o god_n they_o crucify_v the_o lord_n of_o glory_n that_o be_v the_o scripture_n phrase_n we_o shall_v consider_v when_o we_o see_v the_o wine_n pour_v out_o and_o so_o put_v in_o mind_n of_o blood_n who_o blood_n and_o who_o body_n be_v this_o it_o be_v no_o other_o but_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o he_o that_o be_v true_o god_n the_o second_o person_n in_o trinity_n this_o be_v the_o great_a mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o this_o be_v very_o needful_a for_o we_o to_o be_v think_v of_o when_o we_o see_v the_o body_n break_v and_o the_o blood_n pour_v out_o what_o will_v the_o break_n of_o the_o body_n and_o shed_v of_o the_o blood_n of_o a_o mere_a creature_n be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v peace_n between_o god_n and_o man_n sure_o no_o therefore_o you_o must_v meditate_v who_o body_n this_o be_v and_o who_o blood_n this_o be_v it_o be_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o he_o that_o be_v god_n it_o be_v true_a god_n have_v no_o body_n nor_o no_o blood_n but_o the_o same_o person_n that_o be_v god_n have_v a_o body_n and_o blood_n that_o body_n and_o blood_n be_v unite_v unto_o the_o divine_a nature_n in_o a_o hypostatical_a union_n and_o from_o thence_o it_o come_v to_o have_v a_o efficacy_n for_o to_o satisfy_v god_n for_o to_o reconcile_v god_n and_o we_o together_o this_o be_v the_o great_a mystery_n of_o godliness_n med._n 5._o another_o meditation_n be_v this_o when_o you_o see_v the_o bread_n break_v and_o wing_n pour_v out_o oh_o the_o infinite_a dreadfulness_n of_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n how_o dreadful_a be_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n that_o come_v upon_o his_o own_o son_n and_o require_v satisfaction_n from_o he_o that_o shall_v thus_o break_v he_o and_o bruise_v he_o that_o shall_v have_v his_o blood_n that_o shall_v require_v such_o suffering_n even_o from_o his_o son_n dreadful_a be_v god_n justice_n the_o justice_n of_o god_n it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v and_o to_o be_v tremble_v at_o here_o we_o see_v what_o be_v require_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n and_o nothing_o will_v be_v bate_v to_o jesus_n christ_n himself_o med._n 6._o another_o meditation_n be_v this_o here_o i_o see_v present_v to_o i_o what_o every_o soul_n that_o shall_v be_v save_v cost_n whoever_o shall_v have_v his_o soul_n save_v he_o have_v it_o save_v by_o a_o ransom_n by_o a_o price_n pay_v that_o be_v more_o worth_a than_o ten_o thousand_o thousand_o world_n thou_o slight_a thy_o own_o soul_n but_o if_o it_o prove_v to_o be_v save_v it_o cost_v more_o than_o if_o thousand_o of_o world_n have_v be_v give_v for_o thou_o even_o the_o shed_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n every_o drop_n of_o which_o be_v more_o precious_a than_o ten_o thousand_o world_n med._n 7._o again_o from_o hence_o see_v what_o be_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n how_o great_a it_o be_v that_o have_v make_v such_o a_o breach_n between_o god_n and_o my_o soul_n that_o only_o such_o a_o way_n and_o such_o a_o mean_n must_v take_v away_o my_o sin_n i_o must_v either_o have_v lie_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o my_o sin_n eternal_o or_o jesus_n christ_n that_n god_n and_o man_n must_v suffer_v so_o much_o for_o it_o oh_o what_o meditation_n be_v these_o to_o take_v up_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n med._n 8._o behold_v the_o infinite_a love_n of_o god_n to_o mankind_n and_o the_o love_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o rather_o than_o god_n will_v see_v the_o child_n of_o man_n to_o perish_v eternal_o he_o will_v send_v his_o son_n to_o take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o and_o thus_o to_o suffer_v such_o dreadful_a thing_n herein_o god_n show_v his_o love_n it_o be_v not_o the_o love_n of_o god_n so_o much_o in_o give_v you_o a_o good_a voyage_n and_o prosper_v you_o outward_o in_o the_o world_n but_o so_o god_n love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a

powerful_a mighty_a drawing_z efficacious_a meditation_n shall_v this_o be_v unto_o we_o med._n 9_o those_o that_o be_v believer_n they_o shall_v be_v nourish_v to_o eternal_a life_n so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o fear_n that_o ever_o a_o believer_n shall_v quite_o fall_v off_o from_o god_n and_o die_v in_o his_o sin_n why_o because_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v give_v to_o

wine_n pour_v out_o you_o have_v a_o occasion_n to_o meditate_v of_o the_o whole_a new_a covenant_n the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n that_o god_n have_v make_v with_o sinner_n for_o so_o the_o word_n of_o institution_n be_v this_o be_v the_o cup_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n the_o new_a testament_n which_o be_v all_o one_o with_o the_o new_a covenant_n only_o different_a in_o this_o particular_a it_o contain_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n but_o call_v testament_n in_o this_o regard_n to_o show_v that_o the_o lord_n do_v do_v all_o in_o the_o new_a covenant_n that_o be_v he_o do_v not_o only_o promise_v such_o and_o such_o mercy_n upon_o condition_n of_o our_o believe_a and_o repent_v but_o he_o do_v work_n believe_v and_o repent_v and_o work_v grace_n and_o therefore_o the_o same_o thing_n that_o be_v sometime_o call_v a_o covenant_n be_v call_v a_o testament_n that_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n wherein_o the_o lord_n do_v bequeath_v his_o rich_a legacy_n to_o
