love_n of_o christ_n the_o love_n of_o god_n the_o father_n in_o send_v christ_n into_o the_o world_n be_v unconceivable_o great_a god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n so_o infinite_o so_o transcendent_o so_o beyond_o all_o that_o tongue_n can_v express_v or_o heart_n conceive_v and_o christ_n give_n his_o body_n to_o be_v break_v and_o his_o blood_n to_o be_v shed_v be_v such_o a_o expression_n of_o love_n as_o be_v only_o fit_a to_o put_v we_o into_o a_o ecstasy_n of_o admiration_n the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o that_o it_o have_v length_n and_o breadth_n and_o depth_n and_o height_n and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o love_n which_o pass_v knowledge_n a_o love_n which_o can_v not_o be_v describe_v and_o therefore_o god_n allow_v we_o a_o eternity_n to_o admire_v it_o in_o that_o god_n shall_v become_v man_n that_o he_o shall_v die_v to_o who_o it_o belong_v to_o give_v life_n that_o he_o shall_v die_v for_o enemy_n that_o he_o shall_v die_v such_o a_o ignominious_a death_n as_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n etc._n etc._n now_o we_o must_v know_v that_o this_o sacrament_n be_v a_o ordinance_n which_o christ_n appoint_v on_o purpose_n to_o give_v we_o a_o lively_a remembrance_n and_o a_o symbolical_a representation_n of_o that_o unconceivable_a love_n and_o although_o the_o unworthy_a communicant_a be_v unworthy_a indeed_o in_o that_o it_o have_v not_o such_o a_o influence_n upon_o his_o life_n as_o it_o ought_v to_o have_v yet_o in_o regard_n that_o he_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n and_o by_o his_o outward_a reverence_n do_v acknowledge_v christ_n love_n to_o sinner_n and_o it_o may_v be_v have_v grief_n in_o his_o heart_n at_o that_o time_n to_o think_v that_o that_o love_n have_v not_o oblige_v he_o to_o better_a obedience_n he_o be_v not_o so_o much_o to_o blame_v as_o the_o non-communicant_a who_o turn_v his_o back_n upon_o the_o ordinance_n as_o if_o christ_n love_n exhibited_n and_o represent_v by_o it_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o his_o notice_n 3._o they_o cast_v great_a contempt_n upon_o the_o wisdom_n of_o christ_n who_o frequent_v not_o the_o bless_a sacrament_n their_o neglect_n of_o it_o suppose_v that_o they_o think_v there_o be_v no_o great_a need_n of_o it_o or_o no_o great_a good_a to_o be_v receive_v by_o it_o there_o be_v a_o sort_n of_o people_n among_o we_o who_o upon_o all_o occasion_n declare_v that_o they_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v who_o yet_o think_v they_o need_v not_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n and_o what_o do_v these_o man_n less_o than_o charge_n christ_n that_o this_o ordinance_n which_o he_o appoint_v as_o a_o mean_n to_o salvation_n may_v as_o well_o have_v be_v let_v alone_o it_o be_v through_o their_o own_o great_a folly_n that_o they_o call_v the_o wisdom_n of_o he_o who_o be_v the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n into_o question_n their_o not_o consider_v that_o the_o good_a that_o be_v to_o be_v receive_v be_v only_o from_o the_o blessing_n of_o heaven_n upon_o that_o ordinance_n which_o christ_n appoint_v the_o non-communicant_a in_o this_o case_n be_v like_o naaman_n the_o leper_n 2_o king_n 5.10.11_o who_o be_v willing_a to_o go_v to_o the_o man_n of_o god_n to_o be_v recover_v of_o his_o leprosy_n but_o he_o be_v desirous_a that_o it_o may_v be_v do_v without_o his_o use_v any_o mean_n for_o it_o especial_o such_o as_o he_o can_v not_o understand_v shall_v afford_v he_o any_o benefit_n elisha_n send_v a_o messenger_n unto_o he_o say_v go_v and_o wash_v in_o jordan_n seven_o time_n and_o thy_o flesh_n shall_v come_v again_o unto_o thou_o and_o thou_o shall_v be_v clean_o but_o naaman_n be_v wroth_a and_o go_v away_o and_o say_v behold_v i_o think_v he_o will_v sure_o come_v out_o to_o i_o and_o stand_v and_o call_v on_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n his_o god_n and_o strike_v his_o

they_o and_o be_v clean_a so_o he_o turn_v and_o go_v away_o in_o a_o rage_n in_o like_a manner_n the_o non-communicant_a know_v no_o reason_n why_o he_o shall_v go_v to_o the_o sacrament_n to_o be_v cure_v of_o his_o leprosy_n it_o be_v enough_o he_o think_v that_o christ_n die_v for_o sinner_n and_o that_o he_o believe_v it_o and_o that_o he_o be_v sorry_a for_o his_o sin_n and_o ask_v god_n pardon_n or_o intend_v to_o do_v so_o he_o know_v no_o need_n of_o the_o sacrament_n or_o to_o what_o purpose_v it_o be_v appoint_v but_o as_o naaman_n keep_v his_o leprosy_n till_o he_o be_v persuade_v to_o wash_v in_o jordan_n so_o sinner_n have_v all_o the_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n to_o expect_v that_o the_o leprosy_n of_o their_o soul_n shall_v continue_v till_o they_o frequent_v the_o sacrament_n it_o be_v a_o ordinance_n which_o christ_n appoint_v and_o therefore_o they_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o expect_v the_o cure_n of_o their_o soul_n without_o it_o the_o unworthy_a communicant_a acknowledge_v by_o his_o devout_a receive_v of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o heaven_n worthy_a of_o all_o reverence_n though_o he_o fail_v in_o examine_v himself_o before_o he_o come_v to_o partake_v of_o it_o and_o that_o from_o which_o great_a benefit_n be_v to_o be_v expect_v but_o the_o unworthy_a non-communicant_a slight_n it_o as_o inconsiderable_a and_o unnecessary_a to_o be_v observe_v and_o every_o one_o know_v that_o in_o so_o do_v he_o call_v into_o question_n the_o wisdom_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n 4._o non-communicants_a be_v worse_o than_o unworthy_a receiver_n in_o that_o they_o cast_v away_o the_o profession_n of_o christianity_n and_o that_o public_a declaration_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o death_n and_o suffering_n of_o christ_n for_o which_o this_o ordinance_n be_v appoint_v when_o our_o saviour_n say_v do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o and_o the_o apostle_n as_o oft_o as_o you_o eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n you_o do_v show_v the_o lord_n death_n until_o he_o come_v or_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d declare_v you_o the_o lord_n death_n it_o be_v very_o plain_a that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o only_o intend_v for_o the_o private_a good_a and_o benefit_n of_o the_o receiver_n but_o to_o bear_v up_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o the_o christian_a religion_n in_o the_o world_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v use_v for_o a_o public_a declaration_n that_o christ_n be_v the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o name_n under_o heaven_n by_o which_o a_o man_n can_v be_v save_v that_o his_o death_n and_o suffering_n be_v the_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o that_o those_o who_o have_v not_o the_o gospel_n preach_v but_o have_v only_o the_o guide_n of_o their_o own_o conscience_n and_o of_o natural_a religion_n be_v save_v by_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n though_o they_o do_v not_o know_v he_o because_o that_o it_o be_v by_o he_o that_o god_n anger_n be_v appease_v to_o ward_n mankind_n by_o this_o we_o show_v forth_o the_o lord_n death_n what_o a_o great_a and_o mighty_a saviour_n he_o make_v himself_o by_o die_v for_o mankind_n the_o unworthy_a receiver_n be_v exceed_o to_o blame_v because_o he_o fail_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o religion_n but_o the_o non-communicant_a be_v more_o unworthy_a for_o he_o fail_v not_o only_o in_o the_o practice_n but_o in_o the_o very_a profession_n likewise_o it_o be_v not_o improper_a to_o ask_v he_o when_o he_o turn_v his_o back_n upon_o the_o sacrament_n what_o religion_n he_o be_v of_o that_o we_o may_v give_v a_o account_n to_o they_o that_o ask_v we_o if_o he_o say_v a_o christian_n why_o do_v he_o not_o own_v it_o by_o his_o solemn_a approach_n to_o that_o ordinance_n which_o christ_n appoint_v for_o that_o very_a end_n if_o he_o say_v he_o go_v to_o church_n so_o may_v and_o sometime_o do_v jew_n and_o mahometan_n man_n of_o other_o religion_n 5._o noncommunicating_a be_v of_o more_o dangerous_a and_o pernicious_a consequence_n than_o unworthy_a receive_v it_o be_v not_o only_o in_o many_o respect_v more_o offensive_a to_o god_n but_o likewise_o more_o destructive_a to_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n this_o may_v appear_v by_o a_o more_o general_a or_o a_o more_o particular_a and_o special_a consideration_n noncommunicating_a be_v the_o great_a inlet_n both_o of_o dreadful_a division_n and_o horrid_a debauchery_n which_o with_o sorrowful_a heart_n we_o have_v great_a cause_n to_o complain_v of_o it_o have_v be_v the_o great_a inlet_n to_o all_o manner_n of_o division_n by_o which_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v his_o body_n be_v tear_v limb_n from_o limb_n and_o we_o fear_v be_v never_o like_a to_o be_v heal_v in_o our_o day_n the_o case_n be_v plain_a though_o
