be_v in_o the_o womb_n of_o the_o virgin_n his_o flesh_n be_v not_o call_v spiritual_a in_o respect_n it_o be_v glorify_v in_o the_o heaven_n at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o the_o father_n be_v not_o deceive_v with_o that_o for_o suppose_v it_o be_v glorify_v yet_o it_o remain_v true_a flesh_n that_o same_o very_a flesh_n which_o he_o take_v out_o of_o the_o womb_n of_o the_o bless_a virgin_n neither_o be_v it_o spiritual_a because_o thousee_a it_o not_o in_o the_o supper_n if_o thou_o be_v where_o it_o be_v answer_v thou_o may_v see_v it_o but_o it_o be_v call_v spiritual_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o spiritual_a end_n whereunto_o it_o serve_v to_o my_o body_n &_o soul_n because_o the_o flesh_n &_o blood_n of_o christ_n serve_v to_o nourish_v i_o not_o to_o a_o temporal_a but_o to_o a_o spiritual_a &_o heavenly_a life_n now_o in_o respect_n this_o flesh_n be_v a_o spiritual_a food_n serve_v i_o to_o a_o spiritual_a life_n for_o this_o cause_n it_o be_v call_v a_o spiritual_a thing_n if_o it_o nourish_v i_o as_o the_o flesh_n of_o beast_n do_v but_o to_o a_o temporal_a life_n it_o shall_v be_v call_v but_o a_o temporal_a thing_n but_o in_o respect_n it_o nourish_v my_o soul_n not_o to_o a_o earthly_a and_o temporal_a life_n but_o to_o a_o heavenly_a celestial_a and_o spiritual_a end_n in_o respect_n of_o this_o end_n the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n and_o christ_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o flesh_n be_v call_v the_o spiritual_a thing_n in_o the_o sacrament_n it_o be_v call_v also_o the_o spiritual_a thing_n in_o the_o sacrament_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o spiritual_a instrument_n whereby_o it_o be_v receive_v the_o instrument_n whereby_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n be_v receive_v be_v not_o a_o corporal_a instrument_n be_v not_o the_o tooth_n and_o mouth_n of_o the_o body_n but_o it_o be_v spiritual_a it_o be_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v faith_n and_o in_o respect_n the_o instrument_n be_v spiritual_a therefore_o christ_n who_o be_v receive_v be_v also_o call_v spiritual_a in_o respect_n also_o that_o the_o manner_n of_o receive_v be_v a_o heavenly_a spiritual_a and_o internal_a manner_n not_o a_o natural_a nor_o external_a manner_n in_o respect_n that_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v give_v in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v receive_v by_o a_o spiritual_a &_o secret_a manner_n which_o be_v not_o see_v to_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n in_o all_o these_o respect_n i_o call_v christ_n jesus_n the_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a thing_n which_o be_v signify_v by_o the_o sign_n in_o the_o sacrament_n now_o apply_v the_o thing_n signify_v must_v be_v apply_v i_o say_v in_o the_o end_n the_o thing_n signify_v must_v be_v apply_v to_o us._n what_o avail_v it_o i_o to_o see_v my_o medicine_n in_o a_o box_n stand_v in_o a_o apothecary_n shop_n what_o can_v it_o work_v towards_o i_o if_o it_o be_v not_o apply_v what_o avail_v it_o i_o to_o see_v my_o salvation_n afar_o of_o if_o it_o be_v not_o apply_v to_o i_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o to_o see_v christ_n but_o he_o must_v be_v give_v we_o or_o else_o he_o can_v work_v health_n and_o salvation_n in_o us._n and_o as_o this_o salvation_n be_v give_v we_o we_o must_v have_v a_o mouth_n to_o take_v it_o what_o avail_v it_o i_o to_o see_v meat_n before_o i_o except_o i_o have_v a_o mouth_n to_o take_v it_o so_o the_o thing_n signify_v in_o the_o sacrament_n must_v be_v give_v we_o by_o god_n by_o the_o three_o person_n of_o the_o trinity_n one_o god_n by_o christ_n jesus_n who_o must_v give_v himself_o &_o as_o he_o give_v himself_o so_o we_o must_v have_v a_o mouth_n to_o take_v he_o suppose_v he_o present_v and_o offer_v himself_o yet_o he_o can_v profit_v and_o avail_v none_o but_o they_o who_o have_v a_o mouth_n to_o receive_v he_o then_o you_o see_v what_o i_o call_v the_o thing_n signify_v whole_a christ_n apply_v to_o we_o and_o receive_v by_o we_o whole_a christ_n god_n and_o man_n without_o separation_n of_o his_o nature_n without_o distinguish_v of_o his_o substance_n from_o his_o grace_n all_o apply_v to_o us._n then_o i_o say_v see_v we_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n to_o be_v feed_v by_o his_o flesh_n and_o refresh_v by_o his_o blood_n to_o be_v feed_v to_o a_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a life_n and_o see_v there_o be_v no_o profit_n to_o be_v have_v at_o this_o table_n without_o some_o kind_n of_o preparation_n therefore_o let_v no_o man_n press_v to_o come_v to_o this_o holy_a table_n except_o in_o some_o measure_n he_o be_v prepare_v some_o will_v be_v prepare_v in_o a_o great_a measure_n than_o other_o always_o let_v no_o man_n presume_v to_o go_v to_o it_o except_z in_o some_o measure_n his_o heart_n be_v sanctify_v therefore_o my_o exhortation_n concern_v the_o way_n whereby_o every_o one_o of_o you_o ought_v to_o prepare_v yourselves_o that_o you_o may_v fit_v you_o the_o better_a to_o this_o table_n be_v this_o there_o be_v not_o one_o of_o you_o that_o come_v to_o the_o table_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o may_v bring_v before_o the_o lord_n his_o integrity_n justice_n and_o uprightness_n but_o whosoever_o go_v to_o the_o table_n of_o the_o lord_n he_o ought_v to_o go_v with_o the_o acknowledge_v &_o confession_n of_o his_o misery_n he_o ought_v to_o go_v with_o a_o sorrowful_a hart_n for_o the_o sin_n wherein_o he_o have_v offend_v god_n he_o ought_v to_o go_v with_o a_o hatred_n of_o those_o sin_n not_o to_o protest_v that_o he_o be_v holy_a just_a and_o upright_o but_o to_o protest_v and_o confess_v that_o he_o be_v miserable_a and_o of_o all_o creature_n the_o most_o miserable_a and_o therefore_o he_o go_v to_o that_o table_n to_o get_v support_n for_o his_o misery_n to_o obtain_v mercy_n at_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n to_o get_v remission_n and_o forgiveness_n of_o his_o sin_n to_o get_v the_o gift_n of_o repentance_n that_o more_o &_o more_o he_o may_v study_v to_o live_v upright_o holy_o and_o sober_o in_o all_o time_n to_o come_v therefore_o except_o you_o have_v enter_v into_o this_o course_n and_o have_v a_o purpose_n to_o continue_v in_o this_o course_n to_o amend_v your_o life_n past_a to_o repent_v you_o of_o your_o sin_n and_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n to_o live_v more_o upright_o and_o sober_o than_o you_o have_v do_v for_o god_n cause_n go_v not_o to_o the_o table_n for_o where_o there_o be_v not_o a_o purpose_n to_o do_v well_o and_o to_o repent_v of_o necessity_n there_o must_v be_v a_o purpose_n to_o do_v ill_o and_o whosoever_o come_v to_o that_o table_n with_o a_o purpose_n to_o do_v ill_a and_o without_o a_o purpose_n to_o repent_v he_o come_v to_o mock_v christ_n to_o scorn_v he_o to_o his_o face_n &_o to_o eat_v his_o own_o present-condemnation_n so_o let_v no_o man_n come_v to_o that_o table_n that_o have_v not_o in_o his_o hart_n a_o purpose_n to_o do_v better_o that_o have_v not_o a_o hart_n to_o sorrow_n for_o his_o sin_n past_a and_o think_v not_o his_o former_a folly_n and_o madness_n overgreat_a let_v no_o man_n come_v to_o that_o table_n without_o this_o under_o the_o pain_n of_o condemnation_n but_o if_o you_o have_v in_o your_o hart_n a_o purpose_n to_o do_v better_o suppose_v your_o former_a life_n have_v be_v dissolute_a and_o loose_a yet_o if_o you_o be_v touch_v in_o your_o heart_n with_o any_o feel_n or_o remorse_n of_o your_o life_n past_a go_v not_o from_o the_o table_n but_o come_v with_o a_o protestation_n of_o your_o misery_n and_o wretchedness_n and_o come_v with_o a_o heart_n to_o get_v grace_n if_o with_o a_o dissolute_a life_n i_o mean_v not_o of_o open_a slander_n thou_o have_v also_o a_o purpose_n not_o to_o amend_v but_o to_o do_v worse_o for_o god_n sake_n abstain_v thus_o far_o of_o the_o thing_n signify_v unto_o this_o general_a consideration_n there_o remain_v these_o thing_n yet_o to_o be_v make_v plain_a unto_o you_o first_o how_o the_o sign_n and_o the_o thing_n signify_v be_v couple_v together_o and_o how_o they_o be_v conjoin_v next_o it_o rest_v to_o be_v tell_v you_o how_o the_o sign_n be_v deliver_v and_o how_o the_o thing_n signify_v be_v deliver_v and_o how_o both_o be_v receive_v as_o well_o as_o they_o be_v deliver_v this_o be_v do_v i_o shall_v speak_v brief_o of_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n which_o be_v the_o word_n and_o last_o of_o all_o i_o shall_v let_v you_o see_v what_o sort_n of_o fault_n they_o be_v that_o pervert_v the_o sacrament_n and_o make_v it_o of_o no_o effect_n and_o if_o time_n shall_v serve_v i_o shall_v enter_v in_o particular_a to_o this_o sacrament_n which_o we_o have_v in_o hand_n then_o to_o come_v back_o again_o in_o the_o three_o place_n together_o how_o the_o sign_n &_o the_o
these_o three_o or_o do_v it_o in_o the_o name_n of_o any_o one_o of_o the_o three_o person_n only_o you_o lose_v the_o essential_a form_n of_o baptism_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n if_o you_o leave_v out_o the_o least_o ceremony_n you_o lose_v the_o essential_a form_n and_o so_o it_o be_v not_o a_o sacrament_n i_o speak_v of_o the_o essential_a form_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o papist_n who_o keep_v the_o essential_a form_n in_o baptism_n though_o they_o have_v bring_v in_o trifle_n of_o their_o own_o and_o mix_v with_o it_o yet_o in_o respect_n they_o keep_v the_o substantial_a form_n it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o they_o who_o be_v baptize_v under_o they_o be_v rebaptise_v indeed_o if_o the_o virtue_n of_o regeneration_n flow_v from_o the_o person_n it_o be_v something_o but_o in_o respect_n christ_n have_v this_o to_o give_v to_o who_o &_o when_o he_o please_v the_o essential_a form_n be_v keep_v it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o this_o sacrament_n be_v reiterated_a now_o what_o be_v the_o fault_n in_o the_o person_n that_o pervert_v the_o sacrament_n the_o fault_n may_v be_v either_o in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o giver_n or_o in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o receiver_n i_o speak_v not_o of_o those_o common_a fault_n which_o be_v common_a to_o all_o but_o of_o such_o fault_n as_o disable_v the_o person_n of_o the_o giver_n to_o be_v a_o distributer_n of_o the_o sacrament_n &_o take_v the_o office_n from_o he_o so_o when_o the_o person_n of_o the_o giver_n be_v this_o way_n disable_v no_o question_n it_o be_v not_o a_o sacrament_n then_o again_o in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o receiver_n the_o fault_n may_v be_v if_o their_o child_n be_v not_o in_o the_o covenant_n but_o out_o of_o it_o they_o get_v not_o the_o sacrament_n indeed_o if_o the_o parent_n afterward_o come_v to_o the_o covenant_n the_o child_n though_o they_o be_v get_v out_o of_o the_o covenant_n may_v be_v receive_v even_o so_o in_o the_o l._n supper_n if_o a_o man_n be_v lade_v with_o any_o burden_n of_o sin_n without_o any_o purpose_n to_o repent_v he_o ought_v not_o to_o receive_v it_o so_o then_o if_o you_o come_v without_o a_o purpose_n to_o repent_v you_o lose_v the_o use_n of_o the_o sacrament_n it_o be_v only_o this_o purpose_n to_o repent_v that_o make_v i_o who_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n to_o get_v the_o fruit_n &_o effect_v thereof_o therefore_o every_o one_o who_o go_v to_o that_o sacrament_n must_v look_v what_o purpose_n he_o have_v in_o his_o hart_n have_v thou_o a_o purpose_n to_o murder_v to_o continue_v in_o adultery_n or_o to_o commit_v any_o other_o vile_a sin_n that_o be_v in_o thy_o hart_n and_o be_v not_o resolve_v to_o repent_v in_o show_v thou_o to_o be_v without_o repentance_n thou_o show_v thyself_o to_o be_v without_o faith_n and_o consequent_o thou_o come_v unto_o thy_o condemnation_n &_o not_o to_o thy_o salvation_n take_v heed_n then_o what_o your_o purpose_n be_v for_o if_o with_o a_o dissolute_a life_n you_o have_v a_o dissolute_a purpose_n you_o come_v unto_o your_o everlasting_a perdition_n i_o have_v think_v to_o have_v enter_v particular_o into_o the_o handle_n of_o this_o sacrament_n exhortation_n conclusion_n with_o a_o exhortation_n but_o because_o the_o time_n be_v pass_v and_o some_o of_o you_o i_o doubt_v not_o be_v to_o communicate_v only_o this_o remember_v that_o you_o address_v not_o yourselves_o to_o that_o table_n except_o you_o find_v your_o heart_n in_o some_o sort_n prepare_v the_o first_o degree_n of_o preparation_n stand_v in_o contrition_n in_o sorow_v for_o sin_n in_o a_o feel_n of_o your_o sin_n wherein_o you_o have_v offend_v so_o gracious_a a_o god_n if_o you_o be_v able_a as_o that_o woman_n be_v by_o the_o tear_n of_o a_o contrite_a hart_n to_o wash_v the_o foot_n of_o christ_n humble_o to_o kiss_v his_o foot_n and_o to_o get_v hold_n of_o the_o foot_n of_o christ_n though_o you_o dare_v not_o presume_v so_o high_a as_o to_o get_v he_o whole_a you_o be_v in_o a_o good_a case_n but_o if_o thou_o want_v all_o these_o and_o have_v they_o not_o in_o some_o measure_n thou_o want_v all_o the_o degree_n of_o preparation_n therefore_o let_v none_o come_v to_o this_o table_n except_o he_o have_v these_o in_o some_o measure_n but_o where_o there_o be_v a_o displeasure_n for_o sin_n a_o purpose_n to_o do_v better_o &_o a_o earnest_a sob_a and_o sigh_v to_o

and_o therefore_o though_o that_o soul_n be_v far_o from_o the_o thing_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v at_o let_v he_o not_o refuse_v to_o go_v to_o the_o lord_n table_n but_o let_v he_o go_v with_o a_o

he_o go_v in_o god_n name_n to_o the_o lord_n table_n and_o the_o lord_n work_v this_o in_o every_o one_o of_o your_o heart_n that_o this_o ministry_n may_v be_v effectual_a in_o every_o one_o of_o

except_o he_o have_v a_o way_n show_v he_o how_o he_o shall_v eschew_v the_o evil_a &_o a_o mean_n give_v he_o to_o make_v himself_o partaker_n of_o the_o good_a be_v not_o this_o a_o idle_a and_o

that_o it_o may_v be_v especial_o good_a to_o i_o be_v it_o not_o a_o idle_a knowledge_n also_o to_o perceive_v that_o this_o be_v ill_a for_o i_o that_o it_o will_v do_v i_o hurt_v if_o i_o do_v it_o and_o yet_o that_o same_o very_a thing_n i_o will_v do_v and_o no_o other_o so_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n link_v these_o two_o together_o in_o this_o work_n and_o as_o he_o reform_v the_o mind_n he_o reform_v also_o the_o hart_n and_o make_v you_o to_o be_v partaker_n of_o that_o good_a which_o you_o see_v and_o to_o eschew_v that_o evil_n which_o you_o perceive_v and_o this_o be_v the_o second_o

and_o let_v thou_o see_v that_o christ_n be_v thou_o and_o present_v he_o to_o thou_o never_o so_o often_o yet_o if_o thy_o hart_n be_v not_o reform_v that_o will_v and_o crooked_a affection_n that_o be_v in_o thy_o hart_n will_v prefer_v itself_o to_o christ_n and_o will_v make_v thou_o to_o account_v all_o but_o folly_n in_o respect_n of_o that_o idol_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o idle_a and_o a_o foolish_a thing_n for_o i_o to_o see_v my_o salvation_n except_o i_o get_v grace_n to_o be_v partaker_n of_o it_o and_o what_o avail_v it_o thou_o to_o see_v the_o work_n of_o the_o devil_n to_o see_v thy_o own_o sin_n that_o slay_v thou_o except_o thou_o get_v grace_n to_o eschew_v they_o and_o so_o the_o second_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v this_o he_o enter_v into_o the_o hart_n he_o daunt_v the_o hart_n and_o wonderful_o change_v it_o make_v the_o will_n of_o it_o obedient_a he_o mollify_v the_o affection_n which_o be_v hard_o before_o in_o such_o sort_n that_o it_o be_v
