be_v bear_v but_o once_o but_o we_o daily_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o food_n and_o strengthen_v &_o therefore_o we_o often_o receive_v the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o our_o soul_n may_v be_v

1_o what_o it_o be_v 2_o what_o belong_v to_o the_o due_a receive_n of_o it_o for_o the_o first_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v a_o sacrament_n consist_v of_o bread_n and_o wine_n lawful_o consecrate_v &_o distribute_v institute_v by_o christ_n himself_o for_o a_o continual_a remembrance_n of_o the_o death_n &_o passion_n of_o christ_n &_o the_o benefit_n which_o we_o receive_v thereby_o this_o

the_o lord_n death_n and_o the_o spiritual_a food_n therein_o receive_v namely_o the_o body_n &_o blood_n of_o christ_n himself_o in_o this_o sacrament_n we_o must_v consider_v 2_o thing_n 1._o the_o

asunder_o not_o the_o bread_n dip_v in_o the_o wine_n as_o some_o will_v have_v it_o because_o christ_n blood_n be_v shed_v out_o of_o his_o body_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o we_o be_v to_o receive_v these_o sign_n as_o represent_v christ_n not_o whole_o but_o wound_v and_o pierce_v now_o christ_n choose_v those_o element_n before_o any_o other_o because_o they_o best_o serve_v to_o set_v forth_o

the_o sign_n but_o of_o god_n himself_o apprehend_v the_o same_o by_o our_o faith_n for_o christ_n be_v not_o signify_v in_o these_o sign_n as_o in_o a_o picture_n but_o exhibit_v unto_o we_o be_v himself_o present_a in_o the_o sacrament_n though_o not_o corporal_o to_o the_o bread_n &_o wine_n yet_o spiritual_o to_o our_o faith_n for_o though_o his_o body_n be_v in_o heaven_n and_o must_v there_o remain_v until_o the_o last_o day_n as_o it_o be_v act._n 3.2_o yet_o we_o may_v feed_v on_o he_o spiritual_o by_o faith_n by_o apply_v his_o death_n and_o passion_n unto_o our_o sinful_a

the_o end_n of_o this_o sacrament_n be_v twofold_a 1_o in_o respect_n of_o other_o 2_o in_o respect_n of_o ourselves_o in_o respect_n of_o other_o to_o testify_v unto_o they_o that_o faith_n which_o

what_o we_o have_v receive_v from_o or_o what_o we_o be_v to_o return_v to_o god_n in_o the_o first_o respect_n it_o serve_v first_o for_o remembrance_n namely_o of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o as_o often_o as_o we_o receive_v this_o we_o show_v the_o lord_n death_n till_o he_o come_v 1._o cor._n 11.26_o second_o for_o confirmation_n unto_o we_o and_o that_o both_o of_o our_o union_n among_o

as_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v turn_v into_o the_o substance_n of_o our_o body_n so_o we_o by_o faith_n be_v unite_v unto_o christ_n &_o make_v flesh_n of_o his_o flesh_n for_o his_o flesh_n
