celebration_n of_o this_o holy_a supper_n motive_n 1_o first_o because_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o passeover_n solemn_o though_o but_o outward_o of_o many_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o free_v all_o the_o family_n of_o the_o israelite_n from_o have_v their_o first_o bear_v destroy_v from_o the_o egyptian_n so_o may_v the_o keep_n of_o this_o supper_n that_o succeed_v the_o passeover_n be_v a_o mean_n to_o preserv_v we_o from_o common_a calamity_n see_v our_o sacrament_n be_v not_o less_o but_o rather_o more_o effectual_a than_o they_o and_o withal_o consider_v that_o this_o be_v a_o approve_a

many_o be_v sick_a and_o weak_a and_o some_o die_v because_o of_o the_o sin_n of_o unworthy_a receive_n as_o we_o see_v 1_o cor._n 11.30_o their_o sin_n and_o judgement_n can_v be_v small_a that_o altogether_o omit_v this_o holy_a duty_n for_o it_o be_v a_o rule_v case_n that_o the_o willing_a neglect_n of_o good_a duty_n be_v a_o great_a sin_n than_o the_o weak_a performance_n of_o they_o i_o do_v very_o believe_v that_o many_o abstain_v out_o of_o mere_a conscience_n fear_v that_o they_o shall_v do_v more_o hurt_n than_o good_a but_o conscientia_fw-la erronea_fw-la non_fw-la obli_fw-la

administer_v this_o sacrament_n be_v a_o special_a part_n of_o god_n public_a worship_n but_o it_o be_v question_v by_o most_o and_o flat_o deny_v by_o many_o both_o learned_a and_o godly_a man_n that_o a_o single_a minister_n have_v power_n of_o himself_o to_o suspend_v a_o scandalous_a person_n from_o the_o sacrament_n therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v safe_a for_o a_o minister_n to_o do_v that_o which_o be_v his_o certain_a duty_n than_o neglect_v it_o whole_o and_o so_o in_o a_o kind_n suspend_v all_o good_a and_o bad_a worthy_a as_o well_o as_o unworthy_a motive_n 4_o last_o the_o often_o celebration_n of_o this_o sacred_a supper_n tend_v much_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o church_n good_a because_o herein_o be_v a_o thankful_a acknowledgement_n of_o chrst_a crucify_a for_o we_o and_o also_o a_o put_v god_n the_o father_n in_o mind_n of_o christ_n death_n as_o some_o suppose_v and_o of_o his_o covenant_n of_o grace_n seal_v with_o his_o son_n blood_n and_o also_o a_o renew_v our_o covenant_n with_o god_n as_o be_v former_o say_v that_o he_o may_v renew_v his_o grace_n and_o mercy_n upon_o we_o which_o thing_n be_v of_o singular_a use_n wherefore_o let_v we_o lament_v and_o lay_v to_o heart_n our_o former_a great_a neglect_n and_o labour_n for_o time_n to_o come_v to_o be_v more_o faithful_a and_o frequent_a in_o administration_n of_o this_o holy_a supper_n as_o without_o all_o popish_a superstition_n so_o with_o all_o reverence_n and_o godly_a simplicity_n which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o main_a defect_n in_o those_o corinthian_n that_o receive_v so_o unworthy_o and_o as_o for_o those_o that_o be_v so_o apt_a to_o censure_n in_o this_o case_n let_v i_o commend_v to_o they_o the_o apostle_n practice_v in_o that_o 1_o cor._n
