of_o the_o lord_n supper_n i_o now_o come_v to_o the_o second_o thing_n that_o be_v plain_a instruction_n for_o a_o reverend_a and_o profitable_a receive_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n it_o may_v perhaps_o seem_v much_o to_o some_o that_o i_o shall_v be_v so_o solicitous_a about_o this_o ordinance_n and_o therefore_o for_o their_o satisfaction_n and_o the_o confirmation_n of_o the_o duty_n of_o sacrament-preparation_n i_o shall_v give_v account_n of_o it_o in_o the_o ensue_a reason_n first_o 1._o preparation_n to_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v to_o be_v stand_v upon_o because_o it_o be_v very_o needful_a and_o suitable_a to_o the_o care_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n in_o ancient_a and_o pure_a time_n confirmation_n that_o they_o who_o have_v not_o at_o all_o as_o yet_o receive_v that_o sacrament_n shall_v give_v a_o account_n of_o their_o knowledge_n and_o faith_n before_o they_o receive_v it_o for_o though_o a_o necessary_a fundamental_a and_o more_o remote_a right_n thereunto_o be_v presuppose_v in_o their_o baptism_n yet_o because_o they_o themselves_o be_v then_o uncapable_a of_o make_v any_o promise_n and_o profession_n in_o their_o own_o person_n therefore_o their_o clear_a full_a and_o next_o right_n to_o partake_v in_o the_o lord_n supper_n arise_v from_o their_o declaration_n with_o their_o own_o mouth_n of_o their_o knowledge_n of_o consent_n unto_o and_o true_a purpose_n to_o perform_v what_o their_o baptism_n bind_v they_o unto_o or_o be_v then_o promise_v by_o other_o in_o their_o behalf_n without_o this_o though_o i_o grant_v it_o may_v be_v in_o several_a way_n require_v and_o perform_v how_o shall_v their_o fitness_n for_o this_o ordinance_n we_o speak_v of_o be_v discern_v or_o the_o church_n whereof_o they_o be_v member_n and_o with_o which_o they_o be_v to_o communicate_v be_v so_o well_o satisfy_v but_o in_o this_o it_o be_v learned_o and_o large_o speak_v to_o by_o other_o baxter_n i_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o move_v any_o further_o this_o only_a i_o add_v that_o for_o the_o help_n of_o the_o weak_a sort_n of_o those_o of_o who_o i_o here_o speak_v to_o give_v a_o reason_n of_o their_o faith_n and_o fitness_n for_o the_o lord_n table_n i_o have_v compose_v these_o ensue_a direction_n 2._o second_o another_o reason_n may_v be_v take_v from_o the_o weight_n that_o the_o scripture_n lay_v on_o this_o work_n of_o sacrament-preparation_n in_o 1_o cor._n 11.27_o 28_o 29_o 30._o where_o may_v be_v note_v first_o a_o precise_a precept_n for_o examination_n let_v a_o man_n examine_v and_o so_o and_o not_o otherwise_o let_v he_o eat_v of_o that_o bread_n and_o drink_v of_o that_o cup_n which_o show_v that_o a_o special_a &_o distinct_a preparation_n be_v require_v for_o that_o bread_n and_o that_o cup_n that_o be_v that_o distinct_a ordinance_n second_o this_o command_n be_v charge_v upon_o the_o conscience_n by_o lay_v before_o the_o unworthy_a communicant_a two_o heart-affecting_a and_o affright_a thing_n 1._o on_o the_o one_o side_n the_o great_a sin_n and_o the_o most_o horrible_a guilt_n for_o whosoever_o shall_v eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n of_o the_o lord_n unworthy_o shall_v be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o the_o lord_n how_o high_a be_v that_o lord_n how_o dreadful_a therefore_o be_v that_o gild_n 2._o on_o the_o other_o side_n there_o be_v the_o great_a danger_n and_o sad_a doom_n for_o he_o that_o eat_v and_o drink_v unworthy_o eat_v and_o drink_v damnation_n to_o himself_o not_o discern_v the_o lord_n body_n that_o be_v eternal_a damnation_n without_o repentance_n and_o temporal_a judgement_n though_o that_o be_v prevent_v for_o this_o cause_n many_o be_v weak_a and_o sickly_a among_o you_o and_o many_o sleep_n thus_o be_v that_o great_a precept_n of_o examination_n before_o sacrament-participation_n environ_v as_o it_o be_v on_o both_o hand_n that_o it_o may_v be_v more_o effectual_o guard_v against_o all_o gainsayers_a urge_v on_o all_o communicant_n and_o observe_v by_o all_o christian_n to_o strike_v into_o their_o heart_n a_o reverence_n of_o that_o ordinance_n here_o i_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o there_o be_v the_o same_o thing_n for_o substance_n set_v before_o we_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n while_o it_o be_v say_v he_o that_o believe_v not_o shall_v be_v damn_v mar._n 16.16_o and_o he_o that_o hear_v and_o let_v it_o slip_v shall_v not_o escape_v heb._n 2.1_o 2_o 3._o and_o therefore_o people_n have_v need_v not_o only_o to_o hear_v but_o to_o take_v heed_n how_o they_o hear_v and_o prepare_v for_o it_o eccles_n 5.1_o but_o yet_o i_o do_v not_o find_v that_o so_o much_o be_v speak_v all_o at_o once_o and_o so_o full_o speak_v and_o so_o fearful_o speak_v concern_v mis-hearing_a only_o as_o concern_v this_o misreceiving_a the_o reason_n whereof_o may_v be_v as_o i_o humble_o conceive_v because_o in_o unworthy_a partake_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n there_o be_v a_o cumulative_a abuse_n or_o a_o double_a sin_n that_o be_v not_o only_o the_o sacrament_n be_v abuse_v but_o that_o word_n of_o god_n also_o be_v contemn_v which_o make_v it_o a_o sacrament_n sacramentum_fw-la as_o also_o because_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n though_o offer_v also_o in_o the_o word_n yet_o be_v not_o in_o such_o a_o manner_n present_v as_o in_o the_o lord_n supper_n as_o will_v further_o appear_v in_o the_o next_o reason_n mean_a while_n to_o close_o up_o this_o christian_n may_v consider_v that_o when_o god_n be_v please_v to_o speak_v more_o plain_o precise_o distinct_o more_o full_o and_o dreadful_o then_o he_o just_o expect_v that_o what_o he_o say_v shall_v affect_v we_o more_o and_o be_v of_o more_o effect_n with_o we_o read_v jer._n 25.30_o amos_n 3.6.8_o deut._n 1.42_o 43._o with_o numb_a 14.41_o to_o the_o end_n three_o a_o serious_a preparation_n proper_a to_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o rather_o urge_v because_o the_o same_o thing_n that_o be_v christ_n with_o all_o his_o benefit_n be_v offer_v unto_o we_o in_o a_o different_a way_n in_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n which_o make_v it_o a_o distinct_a ordinance_n and_o so_o impose_v a_o peculiar_a preparation_n for_o it_o which_o i_o do_v not_o at_o all_o speak_v to_o set_v one_o ordinance_n of_o god_n against_o another_o or_o to_o lessen_v the_o reverence_n of_o the_o word_n preach_v which_o be_v that_o great_a ordinance_n of_o god_n whereby_o man_n be_v convert_v and_o say_v or_o to_o give_v way_n to_o a_o unprepared_a come_n to_o the_o word_n which_o i_o fear_v be_v the_o fault_n of_o many_o who_o seem_v to_o come_v with_o high_a reverence_n to_o the_o sacrament_n but_o what_o i_o say_v be_v only_o to_o put_v christian_n in_o mind_n that_o every_o distinct_a ordinance_n of_o god_n be_v to_o have_v its_o due_a and_o distinct_a respect_n and_o therefore_o that_o there_o be_v some_o other_o and_o further_o good_a frame_n of_o heart_n to_o be_v endeavour_v when_o the_o sacrament_n be_v to_o
