of_o his_o sacrifice_n with_o the_o element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o this_o holy_a supper_n which_o make_v it_o as_o much_o his_o body_n to_o all_o the_o real_a purpose_n of_o a_o feast_n

on_o the_o sacramental_a bread_n and_o wine_n by_o faith_n we_o feed_v on_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o this_o must_v needs_o convince_v we_o how_o necessary_a it_o be_v to_o

on_o christ_n without_o feast_v on_o his_o sacrifice_n can_v without_o uncovenant_v grace_n apply_v his_o merit_n to_o we_o for_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o truth_n in_o its_o own_o nature_n can_v

believe_v that_o christ_n in_o particular_a die_v for_o i_o this_o do_v not_o actual_o make_v his_o merit_n i_o but_o only_o in_o the_o performance_n of_o such_o condition_n and_o in_o the_o use_n of_o such_o mean_n as_o he_o have_v appoint_v for_o the_o application_n of_o his_o merit_n to_o particular_a person_n and_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o man_n may_v not_o as_o well_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v without_o holiness_n by_o christ_n as_o without_o eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n in_o the_o sacrament_n for_o holiness_n will_v not_o save_v we_o without_o the_o merit_n of_o
