eating Jesus took bread and blessed it brake it and gave it to his Disciples and said Take eat This is my body and he took the Cup and gave thanks and gave it unto them saying Drink ye all of it For this is my bloud of the New Testament which is shed for many for the remission of sins in Saint Luke the 22 Chapter 19 and 20 verses and he took bread and gave thanks and brake it and gave it unto them saying This is my body which is given for you This do in remembrance of me likewise also the Cup after Supper saying This Cup is the New Testament in my blood which is shed for you The 14 Chapter of Saint Mark the 22 and 23 verses and as he did eat Jesus took bread and blessed it and brake it and gave to them and said Take eat This is my body and he took the Cup and when he had given thanks he gave to them and they all drank of it and he said This is my bloud of the New Testament which is shed for many Christ Jesus hath shed his bloud for many then come dear brethren to the table of the Lord Jesus with faith and repentance Come to the Word of God preached by his Ministers their lips will increase thy knowledge Read the Word of God and try your faith pray with humility often Use all Gods Ordinances as well as one Let the weak in faith come to the Sacrament as well as the strong the Sacrament is a soul strengthening Ordinance it is a growing Ordinance it is an Ordinance if it be quickened with the spirit of faith it seals and assures us of the forgivenesse of all our sins then let not hous-keepers neglect it seven or eighe yeers together but prepare themselves and let not young men and maids stay till they are five and twenty yeers old and never prepare themselves to receive the Sacrament and so become sottish and foolish in spiritual things therefore I humbly desire and request the Ministers and Over-seers of Parishes and Churches to have a care of the souls of these people some hath more then othets the Lord reward them in S. Matthew the 20 Chapter and the ninth verse Christ saith to his Ministers Go yee therefore into the high-wayes and as many as you finde bring them to the Marriage so those servants went out into high-wayes and gathered all as many as they found both bad and good and the Wedding was furnished with guests and when the King came to see the guests he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment Christ knows best the wicked and ungodly men let not us judge our brother where we have no witness and do not know nothing our selves If sinful Zacheus or sinful Mary Magdalen will come to their Father with faith love and repentance let us not be like the elder brother of the Prodigal son to grudge at it Luke 15.28 verse Ho every one that thirsteth come ye to the water of life and he that hath no money come ye buy and eat come buy wine and milk without money and without price Esay 50.1 Our Saviour Christ came to seek save them that were lost and there is joy in heaven of on sinner that repenteth then let us forsake our sins and seek out the communion of Saints and minde heavenly rest and joy more then we have God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son for it that whosoever believed in him might not perish but have everlasting life and happiness to the which everlasting life the Lord God of his infinite mercy bring us through Jesus Christ Amen FINIS
