endure_v to_o eternal_a life_n by_o this_o exhortation_n we_o see_v manifest_o that_o it_o never_o be_v the_o purpose_n nor_o mind_n of_o god_n since_o the_o world_n begin_v that_o man_n shall_v feed_v on_o any_o meat_n either_o corporal_a or_o spiritual_a without_o labour_n and_o pain_n take_v for_o it_o you_o know_v that_o law_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o thes_n the_o second_o epist._n

perish_v that_o we_o may_v learn_v neither_o to_o care_v too_o much_o for_o the_o belly_n nor_o for_o food_n requisite_a unto_o it_o now_o let_v we_o consider_v the_o argument_n of_o the_o contrary_a part_n whereby_o christ_n persuade_v we_o to_o labour_v for_o spiritual_a meat_n in_o which_o we_o be_v to_o observe_v two_o thing_n the_o first_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o heavenly_a food_n in_o itself_o all_o though_o we_o never_o do_v enjoy_v it_o which_o be_v declare_v by_o this_o that_o it_o endure_v the_o second_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o it_o in_o they_o that_o get_v it_o which_o be_v that_o it_o make_v they_o also_o to_o endure_v &_o to_o live_v eternal_o for_o the_o first_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o all_o the_o spiritual_a gift_n that_o god_n give_v we_o in_o christ_n jesus_n be_v all_o eternal_a and_o such_o as_o shall_v never_o perish_v whatsoever_o god_n give_v by_o creation_n it_o may_v be_v deface_v and_o utterlie_o undo_v yea_o even_o the_o chief_a gift_n that_o ever_o be_v give_v in_o nature_n to_o adam_n which_o be_v god_n image_n be_v by_o satan_n extinguish_v and_o deface_v and_o as_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o at_o the_o come_n of_o christ_n to_o judgement_n the_o element_n shall_v melt_v with_o fire_n and_o the_o earth_n and_o all_o the_o work_v thereof_o shall_v perish_v and_o the_o heaven_n shall_v wax_n old_a as_o a_o garment_n and_o this_o whole_a world_n shall_v come_v to_o a_o end_n but_o the_o gift_n of_o save_a grace_n give_v we_o in_o christ_n can_v never_o be_v extinguish_v or_o deface_v for_o as_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o destroy_v the_o son_n of_o god_n himself_o or_o that_o the_o sorrow_n of_o death_n shall_v have_v hold_v he_o under_o they_o or_o that_o the_o grave_n shall_v have_v power_n to_o retain_v he_o so_o be_v it_o impossible_a that_o christ_n give_v unto_o we_o and_o his_o flesh_n which_o we_o eat_v and_o his_o blood_n which_o we_o drink_v or_o the_o virtue_n of_o they_o in_o we_o can_v ever_o possible_o be_v deface_v in_o we_o and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o christ_n say_v that_o his_o flesh_n be_v meat_n in_o deed_n and_o his_o blood_n be_v drink_v in_o deed_n for_o his_o flesh_n be_v not_o a_o perish_a meat_n nor_o his_o blood_n a_o decay_a drink_n which_o can_v endure_v as_o the_o nature_n of_o all_o other_o meat_n and_o drink_n be_v but_o his_o flesh_n be_v everlasting_a food_n and_o his_o blood_n everlasting_a drink_n and_o his_o grace_n as_o a_o well_o spring_v continual_o to_o everlasting_a life_n man_n may_v think_v that_o by_o the_o death_n of_o our_o body_n the_o virtue_n of_o jesus_n christ_n flesh_n and_o blood_n be_v utterlie_o perish_v but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o they_o that_o eat_v this_o flesh_n and_o drink_v this_o blood_n shall_v find_v the_o virtue_n of_o his_o flesh_n &_o blood_n even_o when_o they_o be_v rot_v in_o the_o grave_n &_o by_o the_o same_o power_n where_o with_o he_o raise_v himself_o from_o the_o dead_a he_o shall_v likewise_o raise_v they_o from_o the_o power_n of_o death_n this_o then_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n which_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v in_o this_o food_n that_o it_o be_v a_o endure_a meat_n but_o the_o next_o thing_n be_v a_o great_a comfort_n unto_o we_o for_o this_o be_v not_o all_o the_o blessedness_n of_o this_o food_n and_o comfort_n of_o this_o argument_n to_o know_v that_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o themselves_o permanent_a and_o eternal_a but_o that_o which_o chief_o refresh_v our_o soul_n be_v this_o to_o know_v that_o whosoever_o partake_v of_o they_o shall_v partake_v of_o eternal_a life_n with_o they_o this_o be_v a_o bless_a thing_n in_o deed_n when_o i_o know_v that_o not_o only_o the_o thing_n whereof_o i_o be_o make_v partaker_n be_v eternal_a but_o that_o i_o myself_o by_o partake_v of_o they_o shall_v be_v eternal_a as_o well_o as_o they_o what_o can_v move_v a_o man_n to_o seek_v this_o meat_n if_o this_o do_v it_o not_o when_o we_o understand_v that_o it_o have_v this_o power_n to_o work_n such_o a_o bless_a effect_n in_o he_o that_o be_v partaker_n of_o it_o it_o be_v undoubtedlie_o the_o miserable_a ignorance_n of_o this_o benefit_n which_o come_v by_o the_o flesh_n &_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o make_v man_n so_o careless_a to_o enjoy_v they_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o world_n that_o a_o man_n more_o desire_v then_o to_o live_v for_o ever_o all_o that_o ever_o a_o man_n have_v he_o will_v give_v for_o his_o life_n that_o he_o may_v not_o see_v death_n but_o as_o david_n say_v in_o the_o 49._o psal_n no_o man_n can_v by_o any_o mean_n redeem_v his_o brother_n nor_o give_v to_o god_n a_o ransom_n that_o he_o shall_v live_v for_o ever_o indeed_o it_o be_v no_o temporal_a thing_n that_o can_v
