loaf_n and_o wine_n be_v make_v of_o many_o grape_n press_v together_o into_o one_o vessel_n so_o again_o the_o member_n of_o christ_n as_o they_o have_v a_o mystical_a they_o ought_v to_o have_v also_o a_o affectionate_a communion_n one_o with_o another_o and_o last_o he_o use_v bread_n and_o wine_n apart_o to_o show_v that_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n be_v part_v his_o blood_n be_v let_v out_o of_o his_o body_n by_o a_o spear_n upon_o the_o cross_n when_o he_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n q._n what_o do_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n signify_v in_o the_o sacrament_n a._n they_o signify_v christ_n body_n and_o blood_n two_o thing_n in_o number_n as_o they_o themselves_o also_o be_v but_o one_o in_o use_n namely_o whole_a christ_n q._n in_o what_o state_n or_o condition_n of_o christ_n do_v these_o sign_n represent_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n a._n die_v upon_o the_o cross_n as_o his_o body_n be_v crucify_a and_o his_o blood_n shed_v for_o our_o sin_n q._n but_o than_o have_v this_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n respect_v only_o to_o christ_n death_n a._n by_o consequence_n we_o can_v but_o consider_v all_o the_o passage_n of_o his_o incarnation_n even_o to_o the_o very_a last_o act_n of_o his_o come_n to_o judgement_n when_o we_o receive_v this_o sacrament_n but_o direct_o and_o immediate_o it_o be_v christ_n death_n only_o that_o we_o must_v remember_v here_o then_o our_o redemption_n be_v finish_v when_o he_o make_v himself_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v the_o commemorative_n sacrifice_n because_o it_o represent_v both_o unto_o god_n and_o we_o the_o real_a sacrifice_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n we_o ourselves_o be_v keep_v in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o same_o by_o this_o service_n and_o in_o the_o very_a action_n of_o this_o sacrament_n offer_v and_o present_v unto_o god_n by_o way_n of_o commemoration_n the_o sacrifice_v body_n and_o blood_n of_o his_o own_o son_n as_o the_o only_a propitiation_n and_o satisfaction_n for_o our_o sin_n q._n but_o may_v not_o this_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v otherwise_o well_o enough_o remember_v without_o the_o use_n of_o this_o sacrament_n a._n if_o it_o may_v yet_o we_o must_v think_v this_o sacrament_n to_o be_v neither_o useless_a nor_o superfluous_a since_o it_o be_v our_o master_n and_o only_a saviour_n care_n of_o we_o thus_o to_o help_v our_o infirmity_n by_o institute_v and_o ordain_v these_o holy_a mystery_n as_o pledge_n of_o his_o love_n and_o continual_a remembrance_n of_o his_o death_n that_o we_o shall_v never_o forget_v but_o always_o remember_v the_o exceed_a great_a love_n of_o our_o master_n and_o only_a saviour_n jesus_n christ_n thus_o die_v for_o we_o and_o the_o innumerable_a benefit_n which_o by_o his_o precious_a bloodshedding_n he_o have_v obtain_v to_o we_o but_o that_o be_v not_o all_o for_o whereas_o the_o whole_a confidence_n of_o our_o salvation_n consist_v in_o this_o that_o the_o satisfaction_n which_o christ_n give_v to_o the_o justice_n of_o his_o father_n be_v as_o very_o we_o as_o if_o it_o have_v be_v make_v and_o do_v by_o we_o ourselves_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o we_o have_v christ_n in_o our_o own_o possession_n and_o that_o we_o present_v he_o to_o his_o father_n as_o a_o real_a satisfaction_n for_o all_o our_o offence_n otherwise_o he_o communicate_v or_o impart_v not_o himself_o to_o we_o but_o as_o he_o be_v make_v we_o and_o we_o have_v he_o in_o readiness_n to_o be_v offer_v unto_o god_n so_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o to_o remember_v his_o death_n only_o unless_o also_o we_o receive_v he_o die_v into_o our_o heart_n and_o can_v assure_v our_o soul_n that_o he_o be_v accept_v for_o our_o redemption_n and_o that_o the_o efficacy_n power_n and_o fruit_n of_o his_o death_n come_v home_o unto_o ourselves_o q._n and_o may_v not_o christ_n be_v receive_v by_o faith_n in_o the_o word_n and_o be_v present_v to_o god_n in_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n without_o the_o sacrament_n a._n i_o grant_v that_o too_o yet_o not_o so_o effectual_o as_o in_o the_o sacrament_n q._n do_v the_o outward_a sign_n than_o do_v any_o more_o in_o the_o sacrament_n but_o signify_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n by_o way_n of_o remembrance_n and_o representation_n a._n yes_o or_o else_o we_o shall_v have_v nothing_o there_o to_o offer_v unto_o god_n the_o father_n as_o the_o price_n of_o our_o redemption_n but_o they_o be_v such_o sign_n as_o be_v also_o seal_n and_o pledge_n to_o assure_v we_o of_o nay_o they_o be_v mean_n to_o convey_v unto_o we_o the_o thing_n which_o they_o signify_v the_o sacramental_a bread_n and_o wine_n be_v not_o bare_a signify_v sign_n but_o such_o as_o wherewith_o our_o lord_n do_v indeed_o exhibit_v and_o give_v to_o every_o worthy_a receiver_n not_o only_o his_o divine_a virtue_n and_o efficacy_n but_o also_o his_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n as_o very_o as_o he_o give_v to_o his_o disciple_n the_o holy_a

who_o be_v the_o truth_n do_v not_o give_v we_o promise_n without_o performance_n nor_o show_v we_o sign_n without_o substance_n therefore_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v very_o and_o
