A60170	A new naked truth, or, The sandy foundation of the Sacramental test shaken, by a warning-piece discharged from heaven against all sorts of persecutors wherein you may hold Christ crucified mystically and sacramentally, upon the cross of the sacramental penal test, with all the rest of the penal laws and tests attending thereon, and contributing thereunto / by Giles Shute ...

drink_v you_o all_o of_o it_o for_o this_o be_v my_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o be_v shed_v for_o many_o for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n mark_v 14.22_o 23_o 24._o and_o as_o they_o do_v eat_v jesus_n take_v bread_n and_o bless_v and_o break_v it_o and_o give_v to_o they_o and_o say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o he_o take_v the_o cup_n and_o when_o he_o have_v give_v thanks_o he_o give_v it_o to_o they_o and_o they_o all_o drink_v of_o it_o and_o he_o say_v unto_o they_o this_o be_v my_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o be_v shed_v for_o many_o luke_n 22.19_o 20._o and_o he_o take_v bread_n and_o give_v thanks_o and_o break_v it_o and_o give_v unto_o they_o say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n which_o be_v give_v for_o you_o this_o do_v in_o

bless_a saviour_n say_v by_o these_o three_o witness_n in_o the_o word_n of_o institution_n he_o do_v not_o say_v do_v this_o to_o secure_v yourselves_o in_o the_o civil_a government_n while_o you_o do_v rob_n and_o rape_n and_o plunder_n and_o imprison_v and_o spoil_v your_o honest_a peaceable_a neighbour_n but_o do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o here_o be_v not_o one_o word_n of_o make_v it_o a_o civil_a test_n to_o ensnare_v honest_a man_n withal_o 2._o but_o second_o now_o we_o have_v hear_v the_o word_n of_o our_o bless_a redeemer_n let_v we_o also_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n paul_n with_o a_o respect_n to_o the_o word_n of_o institution_n of_o this_o bless_a ordinance_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o also_o the_o threaten_n that_o be_v annex_v thereunto_o

nothing_o to_o the_o people_n but_o what_o they_o first_o receive_v from_o the_o lord_n and_o have_v his_o word_n and_o authority_n for_o so_o do_v that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n the_o same_o night_n in_o which_o he_o be_v betray_v take_v bread_n and_o when_o he_o have_v give_v thanks_o he_o break_v it_o and_o say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n which_o be_v break_v for_o you_o this_o do_v in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o it_o be_v break_v for_o you_o believer_n and_o for_o none_o else_o but_o such_o as_o do_v believe_v and_o that_o shall_v believe_v as_o if_o the_o apostle_n shall_v have_v say_v and_o for_o what_o end_n and_o purpose_n why_o to_o remember_v christ_n dear_a love_n and_o compassion_n in_o die_v for_o poor_a sinner_n and_o to_o feed_v and_o nourish_v the_o new_a creature_n and_o to_o stir_v up_o and_o excite_v all_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n that_o be_v in_o the_o believer_n unto_o a_o holy_a commemoration_n of_o the_o bless_a effect_n of_o his_o death_n to_o the_o believer_n and_o also_o to_o commemorate_v the_o transcendent_a love_n and_o wonderful_a wisdom_n and_o grace_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n and_o the_o great_a condescension_n of_o god_n in_o

pray_v note_n by_o the_o way_n that_o this_o be_v not_o a_o convert_v ordinance_n as_o some_o by_o mistake_n will_v have_v it_o to_o be_v because_o no_o man_n must_v partake_v of_o it_o before_o he_o
