have_v any_o use_n of_o they_o in_o heaven_n for_o there_o we_o shall_v have_v no_o use_n of_o stomach_n to_o digest_v or_o bowel_n to_o make_v convayance_n of_o our_o meat_n for_o nourish_v these_o our_o body_n see_v our_o body_n in_o heaven_n shall_v be_v immortal_a &_o glorious_a like_a unto_o the_o glorious_a body_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n when_o therefore_o we_o be_v feed_v our_o body_n and_o satisfy_v our_o belly_n it_o be_v good_a for_o we_o to_o think_v and_o remember_v that_o we_o be_v feed_v that_o which_o shall_v perish_v &_o that_o with_o food_n which_o shall_v likewise_o 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 procure_v eternal_a life_n no_o not_o all_o the_o mean_n that_o can_v be_v divise_v eat_v what_o a_o man_n can_v eat_v &_o drink_v what_o a_o man_n can_v drink_v yet_o he_o shall_v die_v but_o here_o be_v the_o comfort_n of_o a_o christian_a that_o from_o christ_n he_o be_v feed_v with_o that_o meat_n that_o shall_v make_v he_o to_o live_v for_o ever_o in_o such_o sort_n that_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v not_o prevail_v against_o he_o neither_o death_n nor_o the_o grave_n shall_v have_v power_n over_o he_o but_o he_o shall_v have_v a_o glorious_a triumph_n over_o they_o both_o so_o as_o he_o shall_v sing_v that_o joyful_a song_n o_o death_n where_o be_v thy_o sting_n o_o grave_n where_o be_v the_o victory_n and_o this_o be_v no_o wonder_n see_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o life_n be_v eternal_a it_o can_v be_v but_o that_o the_o life_n that_o flow_v from_o they_o must_v be_v eternal_a and_o they_o that_o be_v feed_v with_o he_o must_v needs_o live_v eternal_o for_o all_o that_o we_o receive_v from_o christ_n be_v eternal_a the_o peace_n eternal_a the_o joy_n &_o life_n eternal_a &_o this_o be_v that_o wherewith_n christ_n comfort_v his_o disciple_n john_n 16.22_o say_n your_o joy_n shall_v no_o man_n take_v from_o you_o thus_o a_o child_n of_o god_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o his_o trouble_n &_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o valley_n of_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n will_v fear_v no_o evil_n but_o can_v still_o rejoice_v in_o god_n his_o saviour_n o_o how_o shall_v this_o stir_v up_o our_o heart_n to_o seek_v after_o this_o meat_n even_o as_o the_o woman_n of_o samaria_n in_o the_o 4._o of_o john_n the_o 15._o when_o christ_n tell_v she_o of_o water_n which_o he_o have_v to_o give_v which_o whosoever_o do_v drink_v of_o shall_v never_o be_v more_o a_o thirst_n she_o say_v lord_n give_v i_o of_o that_o water_n that_o i_o may_v not_o thirst_v any_o more_o nor_o come_v hither_o to_o draw_v likewise_o the_o jews_n in_o this_o same_o chapter_n when_o christ_n tell_v they_o that_o the_o bread_n of_o god_n give_v life_n to_o the_o world_n they_o say_v unto_o christ_n lord_n give_v we_o ever_o more_o of_o this_o bread_n even_o so_o when_o we_o hear_v that_o they_o that_o eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n shall_v live_v eternal_o shall_v we_o not_o in_o our_o heart_n desire_v it_o and_o beg_v of_o christ_n to_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o it_o and_o earnest_o long_a to_o enjoy_v it_o sure_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o most_o lust_n thing_n with_o god_n to_o power_n down_o heavy_a judgement_n upon_o this_o senseless_a age_n and_o sinful_a generation_n of_o man_n who_o take_v great_a pleasure_n to_o seek_v after_o the_o stink_a delight_n of_o this_o flesh_n and_o to_o wallow_v in_o their_o beastly_a lust_n then_o to_o enjoy_v this_o bless_a bread_n that_o endure_v to_o everlasting_a life_n for_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o any_o man_n to_o have_v perpetuity_n of_o be_v without_o this_o when_o therefore_o we_o see_v other_o man_n to_o call_v their_o land_n by_o their_o name_n so_o to_o perpetuate_v their_o name_n on_o earth_n let_v we_o not_o follow_v their_o foolish_a footstep_n but_o if_o we_o desire_v to_o live_v for_o ever_o let_v we_o labour_v for_o this_o meat_n which_o endure_v to_o
eternal_a life_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o reason_n contain_v also_o a_o description_n of_o that_o for_o which_o we_o shall_v labour_v see_v then_o we_o see_v what_o great_a reason_n we_o have_v to_o seek_v this_o spiritual_a food_n it_o be_v necessary_a for_o we_o to_o know_v where_o we_o shall_v find_v it_o and_o that_o be_v the_o next_o point_n we_o be_v to_o consider_v set_v down_o in_o these_o word_n which_o the_o son_n of_o man_n shall_v give_v unto_o you_o in_o these_o word_n let_v we_o mark_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o who_o it_o be_v of_o who_o we_o must_v have_v this_o meat_n that_o be_v the_o son_n of_o man_n the_o second_o be_v how_o we_o shall_v have_v it_o and_o that_o be_v set_v down_o in_o these_o word_n he_o shall_v give_v it_o unto_o us._n touch_v the_o first_o we_o be_v to_o mark_v that_o it_o please_v christ_n through_o out_o the_o scripture_n to_o name_v himself_o more_o by_o this_o name_n the_o son_n of_o man_n then_o by_o any_o other_o especial_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o work_n of_o save_a grace_n and_o for_o the_o comfort_n of_o his_o elect_a one_o it_o must_v therefore_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o great_a moment_n and_o of_o singular_a instruction_n for_o we_o that_o move_v christ_n to_o take_v this_o name_n upon_o himself_o and_o certain_o it_o be_v so_o although_o not_o perceive_v nor_o comprehend_v by_o every_o man_n in_o this_o same_o chapter_n when_o christ_n have_v tell_v the_o lew_n that_o unless_o they_o do_v eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n they_o have_v no_o life_n in_o they_o many_o of_o his_o disciple_n murmur_v at_o it_o and_o say_v this_o be_v a_o hard_a say_n and_o in_o deed_n no_o marvel_n that_o it_o seem_v hard_a to_o a_o natural_a man_n for_o how_o can_v he_o think_v that_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o man_n shall_v have_v the_o virtue_n of_o eternal_a life_n in_o they_o but_o christ_n open_v this_o mystery_n in_o the_o same_o place_n tell_v they_o that_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n that_o quicken_v the_o flesh_n prosit_v nothing_o for_o it_o be_v true_a that_o all_o though_o without_o this_o flesh_n and_o blood_n we_o can_v have_v no_o life_n in_o we_o yet_o certain_o even_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n naked_o consider_v as_o flesh_n and_o blood_n or_o yet_o as_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o a_o man_n can_v never_o give_v life_n to_o they_o that_o eat_v and_o drink_v it_o but_o as_o be_v the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o god_n in_o the_o which_o flesh_n all_o the_o fullnes_n of_o the_o godhead_n dwell_v bodily_a it_o be_v no_o marvel_n that_o it_o give_v life_n to_o they_o that_o eat_v and_o drink_v they_o for_o as_o much_o as_o the_o eternal_a spirit_n be_v never_o separate_v from_o this_o flesh_n nor_o from_o this_o blood_n &_o therefore_o all_o though_o their_o can_v be_v no_o eternal_a life_n but_o from_o this_o eternal_a spirit_n yet_o it_o be_v the_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o no_o save_a virtue_n of_o the_o deity_n nor_o life_n from_o the_o god_n head_n shall_v ever_o be_v communicate_v unto_o man_n but_o in_o &_o through_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o lord_n let_v no_o man_n therefore_o despise_v this_o flesh_n &_o blood_n nor_o the_o outward_a mean_n whereby_o our_o fellowship_n and_o communion_n in_o this_o flesh_n and_o blood_n be_v seal_v unto_o we_o since_o without_o this_o flesh_n and_o blood_n it_o be_v not_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n to_o save_v we_o let_v we_o therefore_o lay_v up_o this_o mystery_n in_o our_o heart_n that_o as_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n can_v never_o quicken_v but_o by_o the_o spirit_n even_o so_o also_o the_o spirit_n shall_v never_o quicken_v but_o by_o the_o flesh_n there_o be_v yet_o more_o in_o this_o to_o be_v consider_v and_o that_o be_v that_o as_o god_n will_v dispense_v no_o save_v grace_n but_o in_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o man_n so_o he_o will_v not_o dispense_v it_o but_o by_o christ_n as_o he_o be_v man_n for_o god_n have_v give_v all_o judgement_n to_o the_o son_n not_o as_o he_o be_v god_n simple_o but_o as_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o by_o he_o as_o he_o be_v man_n will_v he_o judge_v the_o world_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v in_o the_o 17._o of_o act._n god_n have_v appoint_v a_o day_n in_o which_o he_o will_v judge_v the_o world_n in_o righteousness_n by_o the_o man_n who_o he_o have_v ordain_v jesus_n christ_n as_o man_n shall_v judge_v both_o heaven_n and_o earth_n for_o the_o father_n have_v exalt_v he_o in_o his_o man_n hood_n and_o have_v give_v he_o a_o name_n above_o all_o name_n unto_o which_o all_o knee_n must_v bow_n and_o every_o mouth_n confess_v he_o to_o be_v the_o lord_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o david_n consider_v this_o wonder_v as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o 8._o psal_n say_v what_o be_v man_n that_o thou_o be_v mindful_a of_o he_o and_o the_o son_n of_o man_n that_o thou_o visite_a he_o for_o thou_o have_v make_v he_o a_o littel_v lower_n then_o the_o angel_n and_o have_v crown_v he_o with_o honour_n and_o glory_n and_o have_v put_v all_o thing_n under_o his_o foot_n it_o be_v good_a for_o we_o to_o consider_v this_o that_o as_o christ_n himself_o say_v all_o power_n be_v give_v unto_o i_o over_o all_o flesh_n the_o power_n of_o rule_v and_o of_o judge_v of_o save_v &_o damn_v man_n be_v give_v to_o christ_n as_o man_n for_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o be_v not_o subdue_v unto_o christ_n the_o man_n as_o the_o apostle_n prove_v in_o the_o 1._o cor._n 15._o from_o these_o word_n of_o the_o psalm_n that_o god_n have_v subdue_v all_o thing_n under_o his_o foot_n prove_v thereby_o that_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o nothing_o be_v unsubdued_a to_o he_o but_o he_o that_o do_v subdue_v they_o until_o that_o the_o last_o enemy_n death_n itself_o be_v subdue_v christ_n shall_v still_o possess_v the_o kingdom_n but_o when_o he_o have_v subdue_v all_o thing_n then_o shall_v he_o render_v up_o the_o kingdom_n to_o his_o father_n that_o god_n may_v be_v all_o in_o all_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n till_o this_o be_v do_v all_o power_n be_v give_v to_o christ_n as_o man_n to_o destroy_v all_o adversary_n power_n either_o devil_n or_o wicked_a man_n thus_o have_v god_n honour_v &_o high_o exalt_v the_o humanity_n of_o
