Fyrst to put vs in remembraunce that hys body was broken and hys bloud shed for our redemption ☞ Probations out of the holy Scriptures The Lord Iesus the same night in the which he was betrayed toke bread and when hee had geuen thankes he brake it gaue it to his disciples saying Take ye eate thys is my body which is broken for you Thys doe ye in the remembrance of me After the same maner also he toke y ● cup whē supper was done saying This cup is the new testament in my bloud This do as oft as ye drinke it in remēbrance of me For as oftē as ye shall eate this bread drinke of thys cup ye shall shew the Lords death till he come When they were eating Iesus tooke bread and when he had geuen thankes he brake it and gaue it to his disciples and sayd Take eate this is my body And he tooke the cup and thanked and gaue it them saying drinke ye all of thys For thys is my bloud which is of the new testament that is shed for many for the remission of sinnes As they did eate Iesus tooke bread and when hee had geuen thankes he brake it and gaue it to them and sayd Take eate thys is my body And he toke the cup and when he had geuen thankes he tooke it to thē and they all dranke of it and he sayd vnto them Thys is my bloud of the new testament which is shed for many He tooke bread and whē he had geuen thankes he brake it gaue vnto them saying This is my body which is geuen for you This do in the remēbraunce of me Likewise also when he had supped he tooke the cup saying This cup is the new testament in my bloud which is shed for you Secondly to stirre vs vp vnto thankesgeuing while we consider how precious great and inestimable benefites we haue receaued of God the father by the death of hys sonne as deliueraunce from Sathan freedome from the curse of the lawe forgeuenes of sinnes the fauour and good will of God quietnes of conscience the holy ghost righteousnes victory against sinne death and hell saluation and finally euerlasting life That we should not be vnthankfull but rather ioyfully burst out into all kinde of spirituall prayses lauding and magnifying God the father for these hys most hie and singular free giftes the Lord Christ did institute thys holy supper Therfore it is called of the aunciēt Doctors Sacramentum Eucharistiae i. the Sacrament of thankesgeuing ☞ Probations out of the holy Scriptures All that beleued continued daily with one accorde in y ● temple and brake bread from house to house and did eate their meate together with gladnes singlenes of hart praysing God Is not the cup of thankesgeuing for y ● which we geue thankes partaking of the bloud of Christ Is not y ● bread which we breake partaking of the body of Christ Thirdly to put vs in remembraunce that as the bread which we eate at the Lordes table is made of many graines one loafe and the wine pressed together of sondry grapes is made one wine so we being many are one body wherof Christ is the head And because we all are one body we ought all to be beneficiall one to an other one to loue an other one to beare with an other one to wishe well vnto an other and one to doe for an other what soeuer we be able euen to the vttermost of our power as our head Christ for our health and for our saluation disdained not to bestow his very life and to suffer death euen the death of the crosse for our redemption And as we presently at the receauing of the holy mysteries of Christes body bloud do inioy through fayth in Gods promises all the benefites which Christ obtayned for vs by hys blessed death and glorious passion so lykewise ought they that be partakers of the Lordes table euery one according to hys habilitie at that present to be beneficiall to the poore members of Christ and somewhat to geue that may relieue thē euer after also whē occasion is geuen gladly to distribute vnto the needie some porcion of their goodes wherwith God hath endued them That thys was the custome in the Apostles tyme and in the Primatiue Church yea and long after till the Popishe Masse had driuen out of the Church the right vse of the Lordes supper it is euident enough by diuers testimonyes both of the holy Scriptures and of auncient historyes That we are all one body ☞ Probations out of the holy Scriptures As we haue many members in one body and all members haue not one office so we being many are one body in Christ and euery man among our selues one an others member We though we be many yet are one bread and one body in as much as we all are partakers of one bread As the body is one and hath many members and all the members of one body though they be many yet are but one body euen so is Christ. For by one spirite are we all baptised to make one body whether we bee Iewes or Gentiles whether we be bonde or free and haue all drunke of one spirite For the body is not one member but many c. Therefore if one member suffer all suffer with hym If one member be had in honour all members be glad also Ye are the body of Christ and members one of an other ¶ Of the distribution to the needie All that beleued kept thē selues together and had all thinges common solde their possessions and goods and parted them to all mē as euery man had neede Great grace was there with all them that beleued Neyther was there any among thē that lacked For as many as were possessours of landes or houses solde them and brought the price of the things that were solde and layde it downe at the Apostles feete And distribution was made vnto euery man according as he had neede Distribute vnto the necessitie of the Saintes Be ready to harbour As concerning the gathering for the Sainctes let euery one of you vpō some Sabbaoth day put aside lay vp what soeuer is meete c. It is not my minde that other be set at ease and ye brought into combrance but that there be equalnes now at this tyme and that your abundance may succour their lacke and that their abundaunce may supply your lacke that there may be equalitie agreing to that which is writtē He that had much had not the more abundaunce and he y t had litle had neuer the lesse c. Read the Chapter Of the ministring to y t Saintes it is but superfluous for me to write vnto you for I know the readines of your mind c. Yet this I say he that soweth little shall reape little and he y t soweth in geuing largely and freely shall reape
