A27625	A sermon of the true, spiritual transubstantiation, oppos'd to the gross, carnal, imaginary transubstantiation wherein the true meaning of the Lord's Supper is opened, in order to a constant, habitual and actual preparation to it / by Beverley.	Beverley, Thomas.	1687 (1687)	Wing B2175; ESTC R18401	43,861	64

be_v not_o receive_v it_o than_o do_v not_o work_v good_a where_o that_o preparation_n be_v not_o because_o it_o be_v not_o receive_v but_o if_o it_o be_v receive_v it_o have_v its_o certain_a effect_n on_o the_o other_o side_n when_o it_o be_v not_o receive_v it_o do_v hurt_v by_o way_n of_o increase_a gild_n because_o a_o spiritual_a offer_n of_o so_o excellent_a a_o nature_n be_v

though_o the_o holiness_n and_o spirituality_n of_o a_o holy_a create_v finite_a spirit_n may_v by_o instruction_n suggestion_n or_o example_n offer_v much_o good_a to_o other_o spirit_n and_o be_v

those_o his_o act_n and_o suffering_n as_o shall_v be_v most_o conduce_v to_o the_o salvation_n of_o soul_n that_o believe_v in_o he_o now_o this_o i_o shall_v make_v good_a by_o show_v what_o kind_n of_o causality_n and_o what_o answerable_a effect_n be_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n ascribe_v to_o the_o divine_a power_n of_o christ_n act_v in_o the_o humane_a nature_n 2._o i_o will_v show_v that_o they_o can_v be_v prejudge_v nor_o hinder_v by_o any_o distance_n of_o time_n because_o of_o the_o eternity_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n 3._o that_o they_o can_v be_v intercept_v by_o any_o distance_n of_o place_n because_o of_o the_o omnipresence_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n now_o i_o shall_v not_o presume_v to_o speak_v of_o these_o particular_n but_o as_o i_o be_o guide_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o his_o word_n for_o who_o can_v describe_v the_o way_n of_o the_o divine_a spirit_n in_o nature_n such_o knowledge_n be_v too_o

of_o god_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o second_o to_o show_v that_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o eternity_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n these_o efficacy_n can_v be_v hinder_v nor_o prejudice_v in_o point_n of_o time_n the_o divine_a person_n of_o christ_n be_v unchangeable_a and_o eternal_a there_o be_v no_o distance_n of_o time_n occur_v to_o he_o or_o can_v encounter_v his_o divine_a efficacy_n

the_o incarnation_n upon_o this_o account_n christ_n be_v call_v the_o lamb_n slay_v before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n because_o the_o divine_a person_n anticipate_v the_o efficacy_n of_o the_o death_n of_o the_o lamb_n ordain_v before_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n much_o early_o than_o his_o manifestation_n which_o be_v not_o till_o the_o last_o time_n christ_n be_v not_o
