best_o please_v with_o he_o we_o feel_v it_o through_o god_n mercy_n for_o we_o be_v sure_a it_o be_v his_o death_n and_o blood_n that_o we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o and_o that_o god_n be_v

15.13_o great_a love_n than_o this_o can_v no_o man_n show_v than_o to_o give_v his_o life_n for_o his_o friend_n this_o love_n christ_n have_v show_v we_o he_o give_v his_o whole_a state_n for_o we_o he_o spare_v not_o his_o precious_a body_n his_o precious_a blood_n his_o precious_a life_n his_o precious_a soul_n for_o we_o all_o these_o be_v precious_a yea_o infinite_o precious_a in_o

be_v the_o devil_n wit_n he_o put_v it_o into_o they_o now_o the_o true_a ground_n and_o reason_n why_o they_o come_v not_o oft_o to_o the_o sacrament_n be_v because_o they_o contemn_v god_n ordinance_n and_o be_v unthankful_a to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o his_o infinite_a love_n and_o withal_o also_o it_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o sluggishness_n that_o be_v in_o they_o that_o

such_o faithful_a promise_n to_o god_n of_o new_a obedience_n as_o every_o one_o that_o come_v as_o a_o worthy_a receiver_n must_v have_v they_o be_v loath_a to_o put_v themselves_o to_o this_o hardness_n &_o therefore_o they_o communicate_v not_o oft_o in_o this_o sacrament_n and_o this_o be_v the_o true_a reason_n why_o they_o be_v loath_a to_o come_v to_o it_o they_o say_v it_o be_v a_o toil_n to_o come_v so_o oft_o it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v a_o toil_n to_o the_o flesh_n and_o to_o corrupt_v nature_n but_o no_o toil_n to_o a_o child_n of_o god_n but_o joy_n and_o comfort_n to_o he_o yet_o further_o you_o shall_v hear_v what_o they_o will_v allege_v and_o pretend_v beside_o some_o of_o they_o say_v there_o be_v no_o such_o necessity_n that_o we_o shall_v receive_v it_o so_o oft_o and_o they_o give_v you_o some_o reason_n for_o it_o as_o first_o why_o say_v they_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n be_v a_o sacrament_n of_o good_a use_n as_o well_o as_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o that_o be_v to_o be_v communicate_v in_o but_o once_o and_o why_o then_o shall_v we_o communicate_v so_o oft_o in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n i_o answer_v baptism_n be_v ordain_v for_o our_o admission_n into_o the_o church_n and_o house_n of_o god_n and_o there_o can_v be_v but_o one_o admission_n into_o if_o but_o when_o we_o be_v in_o than_o we_o must_v grow_v further_a and_o further_o to_o be_v incorporate_v into_o christ_n and_o that_o be_v by_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n our_o baptism_n give_v we_o our_o admission_n and_o entrance_n though_o the_o power_n of_o baptism_n continue_v to_o our_o life_n end_v and_o whosoever_o feel_v not_o the_o power_n of_o his_o baptism_n in_o the_o course_n of_o his_o life_n that_o man_n be_v never_o true_o baptize_v though_o the_o outward_a action_n of_o baptism_n be_v not_o to_o be_v reiterated_a yet_o still_o it_o continue_v in_o be_v to_o our_o last_o end_n still_o we_o be_v baptize_v into_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n still_o we_o must_v labour_v to_o be_v that_o which_o we_o be_v baptize_v to_o be_v to_o be_v like_a to_o christ_n and_o to_o follow_v he_o so_o than_o you_o see_v there_o be_v great_a reason_n why_o baptism_n must_v be_v but_o once_o because_o that_o be_v the_o admission_n of_o we_o into_o the_o church_n but_o this_o be_v our_o go_v forward_o in_o the_o church_n and_o in_o the_o work_n of_o grace_n therefore_o we_o must_v not_o stand_v still_o but_o proceed_v forward_o in_o this_o exercise_n continual_o again_o another_o reason_n that_o they_o allege_v be_v this_o i_o but_o say_v they_o be_v not_o the_o passeover_n in_o the_o former_a testament_n a_o sacrifice_n answerable_a to_o the_o sacrament_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o that_o be_v celebrate_v but_o once_o a_o year_n and_o why_o then_o shall_v this_o be_v often_o i_o answer_v there_o be_v great_a reason_n the_o time_n of_o the_o celebration_n of_o the_o passeover_n be_v a_o ceremony_n and_o so_o a_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n to_o the_o jew_n the_o passeover_n be_v command_v to_o be_v celebrate_v once_o and_o but_o once_o in_o the_o year_n and_o they_o shall_v have_v sin_v if_o they_o have_v celebrate_v it_o more_o than_o once_o but_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v to_o be_v celebrate_v often_o and_o we_o sin_n if_o we_o do_v not_o beside_o that_o the_o passeover_n be_v but_o for_o one_o temporal_a deliverance_n from_o the_o egyptian_n and_o from_o the_o hand_n of_o pharaoh_n and_o that_o one_o deliverance_n be_v but_o once_o wrought_v but_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n resemble_v unto_o we_o our_o eternal_a deliverance_n from_o sin_n satan_n hell_n death_n and_o damnation_n and_o this_o be_v not_o only_o wrought_v but_o daily_o run_v on_o and_o all_o convert_v be_v still_o daily_o pluck_v out_o from_o hell_n and_o the_o jaw_n of_o satan_n the_o work_n of_o our_o redemption_n be_v every_o day_n after_o that_o we_o be_v thorough_o convert_v still_o the_o old_a man_n be_v crucify_v and_o the_o new_a man_n be_v repair_v in_o we_o and_o therefore_o howsoever_o it_o be_v sufficient_a that_o the_o passover_n be_v once_o celebrate_v and_o but_o once_o yet_o this_o sacrament_n crament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v oft_o to_o be_v receive_v because_o it_o be_v the_o celebration_n of_o our_o eternal_a and_o everlasting_a redemption_n and_o deliverance_n a_o thing_n that_o be_v continual_o in_o work_v last_o if_o so_o be_v that_o that_o be_v a_o good_a rule_n than_o it_o follow_v that_o as_o the_o israelite_n be_v to_o celebrate_v the_o passeover_n that_o day_n only_o that_o they_o be_v deliver_v our_o of_o egypt_n than_o it_o follow_v that_o we_o shall_v receive_v this_o sacrament_n but_o only_o upon_o good_a friday_n and_o no_o time_n else_o but_o they_o themselves_o confess_v that_o that_o be_v jewish_a and_o therefore_o by_o their_o own_o confession_n this_o can_v be_v no_o just_a reason_n against_o the_o often_o participation_n of_o this_o sacrament_n another_o reason_n that_o they_o have_v that_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n in_o receive_v it_o oft_o be_v the_o example_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n we_o need_v not_o to_o be_v more_o careful_a say_v they_o than_o christ_n and_o he_o never_o receive_v it_o but_o once_o in_o all_o his_o life_n time_n and_o therefore_o we_o need_v have_v it_o but_o once_o i_o answer_v christ_n to_o the_o time_n of_o his_o death_n be_v under_o the_o law_n as_o he_o be_v man_n and_o so_o be_v to_o behave_v himself_o and_o conform_v himself_o to_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v not_o to_o have_v a_o hand_n in_o this_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n till_o the_o time_n come_v that_o the_o old_a be_v to_o be_v abolish_v beside_o that_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o he_o be_v rather_o a_o institutor_n than_o a_o receiver_n of_o this_o sacrament_n and_o therefore_o he_o be_v to_o make_v choice_n of_o the_o fit_a time_n when_o it_o be_v to_o be_v do_v and_o that_o be_v as_o near_o to_o his_o death_n as_o can_v be_v and_o therefore_o he_o speak_v of_o it_o as_o a_o thing_n past_a this_o be_v my_o blood_n that_o be_v shed_v for_o you_o so_o that_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n must_v be_v as_o near_o to_o his_o death_n as_o may_v be_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v fit_a to_o be_v institute_v by_o he_o the_o night_n before_o he_o suffer_v last_o of_o all_o if_o they_o say_v so_o than_o they_o must_v conclude_v by_o their_o own_o rule_n that_o they_o must_v never_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n but_o when_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o die_v if_o that_o reason_n hold_v good_a but_o as_o i_o say_v before_o our_o saviour_n christ_n be_v the_o institutor_n of_o the_o sacrament_n &_o therefore_o he_o choose_v that_o time_n that_o it_o may_v be_v the_o fresh_a in_o memory_n another_o thing_n they_o allege_v be_v a_o matter_n of_o inconveniency_n oh_o say_v they_o if_o we_o shall_v come_v oft_o it_o will_v be_v tedious_a to_o we_o i_o sure_o matter_n of_o god_n be_v tedious_a to_o worldly_a and_o carnal_a man_n tedious_a to_o flesh_n and_o
he_o shall_v come_v and_o deliver_v we_o from_o hell_n death_n and_o damnation_n now_o if_o so_o be_v that_o it_o be_v so_o in_o the_o sacrifice_n and_o sacrament_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n it_o
