in_o these_o three_o word_n discern_v the_o lord_n body_n let_v a_o man_n examine_v himself_o and_o he_o that_o eat_v 〈◊〉_d drink_v unworthy_o doct._n 1._o all_o our_o work_n that_o be_v we_o only_o in_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v to_o eat_v and_o to_o drink_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ._n it_o be_v gather_v from_o these_o word_n let_v he_o eat_v of_o that_o bread_n and_o drink_v of_o

the_o very_a institution_n of_o this_o sacrament_n no_o other_o thing_n be_v prescribe_v but_o that_o we_o shall_v take_v eat_z and_o drink_v to_o wit_n as_o the_o sign_n with_o our_o body_n so_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n spiritual_o or_o by_o faith_n to_o the_o nourishment_n of_o our_o soul_n reas._o 3_o because_o nothing_o else_o be_v represent_v in_o the_o external_a sign_n and_o action_n but_o this_o nourishment_n on_o christ_n which_o by_o the_o institution_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o this_o sacrament_n use_v use_v of_o refutation_n against_o papist_n what_o the_o difference_n be_v between_o the_o supper_n and_o the_o popish_a mass_n because_o papist_n have_v take_v away_o the_o sacrament_n that_o be_v institute_v by_o christ_n and_o have_v set_v up_o in_o its_o place_n the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n that_o be_v devise_v by_o man_n and_o this_o be_v the_o difference_n between_o a_o sacrament_n and_o a_o sacrifice_n that_o the_o formal_a reason_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n consist_v in_o this_o that_o in_o it_o man_n offer_v something_o to_o god_n and_o god_n receive_v something_o from_o man_n but_o the_o formal_a reason_n of_o a_o sacrament_n be_v in_o this_o that_o god_n offer_v something_o to_o man_n by_o visible_a sign_n and_o man_n receive_v it_o from_o god_n on_o the_o condition_n and_o manner_n that_o he_o offer_v it_o in_o this_o supper_n god_n offer_v christ_n unto_o we_o for_o our_o spiritual_a nourishment_n and_o we_o receive_v christ_n as_o the_o food_n of_o our_o soul_n by_o eat_v and_o drink_v of_o he_o by_o faith_n hence_o the_o popish_a mass_n be_v a_o mere_a stranger_n to_o christ_n institution_n while_o they_o make_v its_o principal_a use_n to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a and_o while_o they_o officiate_v their_o private_a mass_n wherein_o the_o people_n neither_o eat_v nor_o drink_v while_o in_o the_o public_a mass_n they_o take_v away_o the_o cup_n from_o the_o people_n so_o that_o though_o they_o eat_v in_o some_o sort_n yet_o they_o drink_v in_o no_o manner_n while_o they_o hold_v up_o the_o host_n or_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v the_o consecrate_a bread_n and_o wine_n rather_o to_o be_v adore_v and_o worship_v than_o to_o be_v eat_v or_o drink_v while_o last_o they_o do_v all_o this_o in_o a_o unknown_a tongue_n so_o that_o the_o people_n can_v understand_v either_o what_o or_o how_o they_o shall_v eat_v or_o drink_v doct._n 2._o that_o we_o may_v right_o partake_v in_o the_o lord_n supper_n it_o be_v chief_o require_v that_o we_o right_o discern_v the_o lord_n body_n by_o this_o discern_a of_o the_o lord_n body_n be_v understand_v a_o act_n of_o the_o understanding_n whereby_o we_o observe_v the_o difference_n between_o this_o bread_n thus_o consecrate_v to_o be_v a_o sign_n and_o exhibitive_a seal_n of_o the_o lord_n body_n that_o be_v of_o all_o his_o benefit_n and_o grace_n to_o our_o faith_n and_o common_a bread_n or_o it_o be_v that_o judgement_n of_o our_o mind_n whereby_o we_o have_v a_o right_a apprehension_n and_o pronounce_v right_a sentence_n concern_v this_o whole_a mystery_n or_o business_n the_o want_n of_o this_o discern_a be_v that_o which_o be_v reprove_v here_o by_o the_o apostle_n reas._o 1_o because_o without_o judgement_n and_o prudence_n agreeable_a to_o the_o thing_n undertake_v nothing_o can_v be_v right_o or_o perfect_o do_v or_o perform_v reas._n 2_o because_o in_o the_o sacrament_n where_o the_o external_a appearance_n be_v bodily_a and_o gross_a and_o yet_o a_o spiritual_a mystery_n or_o secret_n as_o to_o sense_n lie_v hide_v in_o they_o there_o be_v need_n of_o spiritual_a heed_n and_o judgement_n that_o we_o may_v right_o pierce_v and_o dive_v into_o that_o spiritual_a secret_a itself_o reas._o 3_o because_o the_o want_n of_o this_o discern_a bring_v with_o it_o a_o profanation_n of_o this_o holy_a feast_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o corinthian_n for_o who_o so_o discern_v not_o what_o it_o be_v about_o which_o they_o be_v busy_v can_v never_o fit_v themselves_o so_o as_o to_o behave_v themselves_o arightly_a in_o handle_v of_o such_o a_o

no_o other_o but_o the_o deep_a guilt_n of_o our_o sin_n &_o heavy_a punishment_n due_a to_o it_o and_o the_o misery_n that_o to_o we_o will_v thence_o have_v follow_v 2._o the_o proper_a cause_n and_o reason_n of_o this_o donation_n which_o be_v the_o infinite_a mercy_n of_o god_n towards_o we_o 3._o the_o manner_n in_o which_o christ_n be_v give_v for_o we_o which_o be_v both_o in_o body_n and_o soul_n to_o the_o sufferance_n of_o death_n tho_o they_o be_v the_o soul_n and_o body_n of_o god_n personal_o that_o by_o this_o his_o obedience_n we_o may_v be_v both_o free_v from_o death_n

to_o discern_v the_o lord_n body_n unless_o we_o discern_v aright_o also_o how_o ourselves_o agree_v with_o or_o disagree_v from_o the_o lord_n body_n and_o whether_o we_o have_v such_o requisite_n as_o necessary_o we_o must_v for_o the_o save_a participation_n of_o his_o body_n for_o in_o the_o sacrament_n there_o be_v a_o mutual_a relation_n between_o the_o gift_n offer_v and_o our_o receive_n
