thou_o must_v get_v thy_o heart_n to_o a_o more_o close_o a_o more_o near_o &_o inward_a conjunction_n with_o he_o thou_o must_v labour_v to_o have_v that_o hardness_n that_o thou_o have_v contract_v as_o it_o will_v be_v in_o a_o little_a continuance_n of_o time_n thou_o must_v labour_v i_o say_v to_o have_v that_o take_v away_o and_o remove_v to_o have_v thy_o heart_n soften_v to_o have_v the_o rust_n rub_v off_o thou_o must_v labour_v to_o have_v all_o these_o thing_n do_v for_o thou_o must_v know_v this_o that_o though_o there_o be_v not_o a_o particular_a sin_n commit_v yet_o as_o we_o see_v the_o outward_a man_n be_v subject_a to_o a_o waste_a though_o there_o be_v no_o wound_n though_o there_o be_v no_o sickness_n though_o a_o man_n be_v in_o perfect_a health_n and_o all_o be_v well_o with_o he_o and_o he_o observe_v all_o the_o rule_n of_o diet_n yet_o i_o say_v you_o see_v the_o outward_a man_n be_v subject_a to_o waste_v to_o faint_v to_o weakness_n and_o decay_v and_o therefore_o there_o must_v be_v a_o renew_n of_o diet_n and_o of_o strength_n or_o else_o it_o can_v be_v able_a to_o hold_v out_o so_o it_o be_v with_o the_o inward_a man_n though_o there_o be_v no_o

decay_n so_o that_o sometime_o he_o must_v have_v some_o special_a meat_n some_o special_a feast_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v for_o that_o purpose_n for_o he_o do_v nothing_o in_o vain_a and_o if_o this_o sacrament_n can_v be_v spare_v that_o a_o man_n may_v keep_v the_o strength_n of_o the_o inward_a man_n without_o it_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o have_v put_v you_o to_o this_o

christ_n that_o you_o may_v eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n and_o gather_v new_a strength_n from_o it_o that_o when_o there_o be_v a_o decay_n of_o grace_n in_o your_o heart_n you_o may_v go_v to_o this_o fountain_n and_o fill_v the_o cistern_n again_o to_o recover_v strength_n for_o when_o a_o man_n come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n as_o he_o ought_v he_o gather_v a_o new_a strength_n as_o a_o man_n do_v from_o a_o feast_n his_o heart_n be_v cheer_v up_o as_o it_o be_v with_o flagon_n of_o wine_n he_o be_v refresh_v his_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n be_v satisfy_v that_o be_v the_o desire_n of_o his_o soul_n that_o long_o after_o christ_n after_o righteousness_n and_o assurance_n be_v quicken_v and_o refresh_v and_o this_o be_v the_o three_o thing_n four_o beside_o all_o this_o first_o the_o stir_v up_o of_o the_o grace_n and_o the_o act_n of_o the_o habit_n second_o make_v thy_o peace_n and_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n and_o remove_v of_o any_o particular_a offence_n that_o be_v betwixt_o god_n and_o thou_o three_o this_o scour_n off_o the_o rust_n this_o remove_v the_o distance_n between_o god_n and_o thou_o the_o soften_a of_o that_o hardness_n which_o thy_o heart_n have_v contract_v this_o recover_v the_o strength_n that_o thou_o have_v waste_v there_o be_v beside_o all_o these_o a_o four_o thing_n require_v which_o be_v that_o there_o be_v a_o intention_n a_o particular_a increase_n of_o thy_o will_n in_o take_v christ_n of_o thy_o desire_n to_o christ_n and_o of_o every_o grace_n that_o knit_v thou_o and_o christ_n together_o for_o there_o be_v certain_a cement_n grace_n certain_a glew_v grace_n that_o join_v christ_n and_o thy_o soul_n together_o as_o faith_n and_o love_n these_o be_v the_o two_o main_a grace_n there_o be_v a_o great_a train_n of_o grace_n that_o follow_v they_o but_o these_o be_v the_o chief_a and_o these_o i_o say_v must_v be_v intend_v for_o what_o be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v it_o not_o to_o knit_v the_o knot_n strong_a between_o christ_n and_o we_o to_o make_v the_o union_n more_o full_a and_o perfect_a be_v it_o not_o to_o increase_v our_o willingness_n to_o take_v and_o receive_v christ_n for_o you_o know_v all_o the_o act_n of_o the_o soul_n may_v be_v intend_v put_v the_o case_n there_o be_v a_o resolve_a act_n in_o the_o heart_n and_o soul_n of_o any_o man_n whereby_o he_o say_v thus_o with_o himself_o i_o be_o resolve_v to_o take_v christ_n and_o to_o serve_v and_o love_v he_o for_o the_o time_n of_o my_o life_n yet_o this_o resolution_n of_o he_o though_o it_o be_v perfect_a and_o sincere_a may_v receive_v intention_n when_o a_o man_n be_v willing_a to_o do_v any_o thing_n true_o there_o may_v be_v degree_n add_v to_o that_o will_n when_o there_o be_v light_n in_o a_o room_n when_o thou_o bring_v in_o more_o candle_n that_o light_n may_v be_v increase_v so_o it_o may_v in_o this_o so_o may_v your_o faith_n and_o love_n by_o faith_n i_o mean_v nothing_o but_o the_o resolution_n of_o the_o heart_n to_o take_v christ_n i_o mean_v not_o the_o believe_a part_n but_o the_o take_a part_n the_o act_n of_o the_o will_n take_v christ_n or_o receive_v he_o which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o choice_n of_o the_o will_n that_o resolve_v to_o take_v he_o i_o do_v but_o touch_v this_o by_o the_o way_n because_o it_o be_v a_o point_n i_o have_v handle_v already_o at_o large_a the_o thing_n i_o aim_v at_o be_v this_o i_o say_v the_o glew_v grace_n be_v these_o two_o faith_n and_o love_n whereby_o you_o thus_o take_v christ_n for_o your_o lord_n and_o saviour_n faith_n be_v like_o the_o part_n of_o the_o compass_n that_o go_v about_o and_o do_v the_o work_n and_o love_n be_v that_o cement_n grace_n whereby_o we_o be_v more_o knit_v unto_o the_o lord_n they_o have_v both_o their_o office_n and_o their_o place_n you_o know_v love_n be_v a_o unite_n affection_n therefore_o this_o be_v the_o definition_n of_o it_o it_o be_v a_o desire_n of_o union_n with_o that_o it_o love_v now_o when_o thou_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n or_o to_o pray_v or_o put_v up_o any_o special_a request_n when_o thou_o come_v to_o have_v to_o do_v with_o god_n to_o make_v use_n of_o any_o privilege_n thou_o have_v in_o christ_n thy_o chief_a business_n be_v to_o intend_v this_o faith_n &_o love_n at_o such_o a_o time_n to_o draw_v thou_o near_o to_o make_v the_o union_n perfect_a you_o will_v say_v how_o be_v this_o increase_v and_o how_o be_v it_o intend_v quest._n answ._n i_o answer_v two_o way_n in_o the_o sacrament_n one_o

that_o be_v a_o thing_n i_o will_v have_v you_o chief_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o that_o be_v the_o very_a sacrament_n itself_o the_o element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n deliver_v to_o thou_o with_o

appoint_v the_o minister_n to_o speak_v for_o therein_o be_v the_o force_n of_o they_o that_o they_o be_v of_o the_o lord_n own_o institution_n therefore_o the_o strength_n of_o every_o sacrament_n lie_v in_o the_o institution_n that_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o divinity_n the_o papist_n themselves_z who_o have_v add_v five_o other_o sacrament_n can_v deny_v but_o that_o every_o sacrament_n must_v have_v a_o immediate_a institution_n from_o christ_n himself_o even_o from_o his_o own_o mouth_n or_o else_o there_o be_v no_o strength_n in_o it_o so_o

except_o the_o lord_n have_v thus_o institute_v it_o there_o have_v be_v no_o force_n in_o it_o i_o say_v consider_v they_o be_v word_n that_o the_o minister_n speak_v not_o in_o a_o ordinary_a

deliver_v by_o the_o minister_n know_v this_o that_o the_o thing_n that_o thou_o see_v be_v a_o witness_n between_o thou_o and_o i_o that_o as_o it_o be_v say_v by_o laban_n and_o jacob_n when_o

this_o be_v a_o wondrous_a great_a mercy_n this_o be_v a_o marvellous_a great_a help_n if_o it_o be_v right_o understand_v to_o strengthen_v our_o faith_n do_v it_o not_o help_v we_o when_o we_o see_v the_o rainbow_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v to_o put_v he_o in_o mind_n of_o his_o covenant_n 15_o i_o will_v remember_v my_o covenant_n when_o i_o look_v on_o the_o bow_n in_o the_o cloud_n it_o shall_v confirm_v i_o and_o i_o will_v not_o break_v my_o covenant_n to_o destroy_v the_o world_n with_o a_o flood_n so_o this_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n when_o the_o lord_n look_v

it_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o sign_n and_o a_o witness_n between_o we_o now_o i_o say_v that_o new_a impression_n that_o these_o word_n thus_o contrive_v and_o understand_v and_o deliver_v by_o the_o

send_v from_o christ_n from_o his_o own_o mouth_n take_v and_o eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n that_o be_v break_v for_o you_o 24.25_o and_o this_o be_v my_o blood_n that_o be_v shed_v for_o you_o and_o for_o many_o for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n this_o be_v the_o four_o qualification_n that_o be_v require_v that_o our_o faith_n and_o love_n be_v intend_v and_o our_o union_n increase_v that_o the_o will_n resolution_n and_o purpose_n of_o take_v christ_n for_o our_o lord_n receive_v more_o degree_n that_o so_o we_o may_v be_v more_o fast_o and_o firm_o unite_v and_o knit_v to_o he_o

to_o be_v in_o christ_n but_o if_o thou_o will_v be_v a_o worthy_a receiver_n thou_o must_v have_v these_o four_o qualification_n in_o thou_o that_o i_o have_v name_v already_o thou_o must_v

thou_o thou_o must_v add_v a_o intend_v and_o a_o increase_n thou_o must_v add_v more_o degree_n to_o thy_o faith_n and_o love_n and_o after_o all_o these_o five_o and_o last_o this_o be_v also_o require_v which_o be_v much_o for_o our_o benefit_n and_o comfort_n namely_o to_o put_v up_o thy_o request_n when_o thou_o come_v near_o to_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o sacrament_n now_o thou_o must_v
