of_o the_o lord_n his_o supper_n by_o the_o imperfection_n and_o weakness_n of_o our_o faith_n provide_v always_o that_o the_o same_o be_v unfeigned_a and_o that_o we_o acknowledge_v the_o baseness_n and_o weakness_n thereof_o do_v pray_v unto_o god_n to_o have_v it_o augment_v and_o increase_v by_o the_o work_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o also_o that_o to_o this_o end_n we_o use_v the_o mean_n that_o he_o have_v leave_v to_o be_v use_v minist_n it_o be_v sufficient_a that_o we_o believe_v that_o jesus_n christ_n by_o his_o obedience_n have_v purchase_v unto_o we_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o in_o this_o grace_n and_o favour_n have_v get_v we_o righteousness_n and_o life_n and_o that_o by_o his_o cross_n he_o make_v satisfaction_n for_o our_o sin_n have_v appease_v his_o wrath_n and_o have_v free_v we_o from_o the_o danger_n of_o death_n and_o of_o the_o curse_n euseb_n no_o sir_n but_o when_o we_o have_v believe_v thus_o much_o we_o must_v be_v well_o assure_v that_o we_o be_v receive_v into_o the_o communion_n of_o this_o obedience_n &_o satisfaction_n when_o we_o receive_v the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n which_o be_v present_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o supper_n and_o for_o the_o last_o and_o most_o principal_a point_n we_o must_v believe_v that_o we_o be_v make_v one_o and_o incorporate_v with_o jesus_n christ_n and_o allow_v of_o he_o &_o of_o his_o father_n not_o only_o for_o his_o flock_n his_o disciple_n his_o brethren_n and_o friend_n but_o also_o for_o member_n of_o his_o body_n and_o flesh_n of_o his_o flesh_n out_o of_o which_o point_n we_o may_v draw_v matter_n of_o singular_a and_o manifold_a comfort_n and_o consolation_n for_o by_o this_o mean_a we_o be_v sure_a that_o so_o long_o as_o we_o continue_v in_o this_o union_n we_o can_v be_v condemn_v ne_o keep_v &_o hold_v in_o the_o band_n of_o death_n no_o more_o than_o he_o himself_o and_o that_o the_o prince_n of_o this_o world_n have_v no_o more_o part_n in_o we_o or_o power_n over_o we_o than_o he_o have_v in_o or_o over_o he_o and_o that_o righteousness_n and_o life_n be_v as_o well_o inseparable_a from_o we_o as_o from_o he_o and_o that_o we_o be_v coheire_n with_o he_o of_o all_o the_o honour_n of_o his_o kingdom_n &_o that_o where_o he_o be_v there_o we_o shall_v be_v of_o necessity_n not_o impeacheable_a by_o all_o the_o power_n and_o practice_n of_o the_o devil_n minist_n i_o have_v two_o question_n to_o ask_v you_o touch_v that_o you_o say_v even_o now_o of_o the_o participation_n that_o we_o have_v in_o the_o humanity_n of_o jesus_n christ_n when_o we_o do_v take_v and_o eat_v the_o bread_n in_o the_o supper_n the_o first_o be_v whither_o that_o before_o the_o bread_n be_v give_v unto_o we_o we_o be_v not_o already_o unite_v unto_o he_o and_o if_o we_o be_v what_o profit_n we_o can_v receive_v by_o the_o supper_n euseb_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o by_o faith_n we_o be_v join_v unto_o he_o before_o we_o come_v unto_o the_o table_n otherwise_o we_o shall_v be_v whole_o unworthy_a and_o yet_o we_o come_v that_o we_o may_v be_v yet_o more_o near_o knit_v in_o one_o with_o he_o for_o even_o as_o two_o diverse_a thing_n when_o they_o be_v tie_v &_o bind_v together_o with_o a_o cord_n may_v be_v yet_o tie_v with_o another_o and_o if_o a_o man_n will_v use_v a_o hundred_o cord_n to_o that_o purpose_n it_o may_v be_v very_o well_o say_v that_o they_o be_v still_o tie_v together_o more_o and_o more_o so_o albeit_o that_o we_o by_o baptism_n and_o faith_n wherein_o we_o hear_v and_o obey_v the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v ally_v unto_o he_o and_o ingraft_v in_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n yet_o that_o be_v no_o hindrance_n but_o that_o by_o the_o supper_n when_o we_o do_v celebrate_v it_o this_o alliance_n be_v renew_a and_o more_o &_o more_o confirm_v minist_n what_o need_v it_o that_o we_o have_v so_o many_o assurance_n of_o pledge_n &_o token_n to_o confirm_v the_o agreement_n that_o he_o have_v make_v with_o we_o for_o it_o may_v be_v gather_v hereupon_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v a_o deceiver_n or_o inconstant_a &_o that_o we_o therefore_o can_v not_o be_v to_o sure_a and_o to_o wary_a in_o our_o deal_n with_o he_o euseb_n the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v eternal_a and_o the_o effect_n thereof_o most_o sure_a and_o certain_a even_o as_o he_o be_v the_o speaker_n be_v everlasting_a and_o unchangeable_a his_o gift_n and_o his_o calling_n without_o repentance_n neither_o be_v our_o unbelief_n able_a to_o make_v the_o faith_n or_o truth_n of_o god_n of_o no_o effect_n yea_o as_o s._n paul_n say_v the_o verity_n of_o god_n be_v more_o abundant_a through_o our_o lie_v unto_o his_o glory_n therefore_o the_o reason_n why_o he_o swear_v and_o seal_v his_o promise_n with_o a_o double_a seal_n after_o they_o be_v make_v be_v not_o for_o that_o they_o be_v of_o their_o nature_n doubtful_a &_o uncerteine_a but_o because_o our_o heart_n be_v so_o full_a of_o suspicion_n and_o wicked_a distrust_n that_o we_o will_v never_o take_v his_o bare_a word_n for_o sufficient_a assurance_n yea_o we_o will_v hardly_o trust_v he_o with_o all_o the_o solemnity_n of_o swear_v sign_n and_o seal_v that_o be_v use_v of_o he_o for_o our_o warrant_n in_o this_o behalf_n minist_n herein_o the_o forwardness_n and_o wretchedness_n of_o our_o nature_n be_v the_o more_o apparent_a for_o we_o can_v be_v content_a to_o rest_v ourselves_o whole_o upon_o the_o dream_n and_o conceit_n of_o our_o own_o vain_a and_o foolish_a wisdom_n or_o upon_o the_o bare_a word_n of_o a_o mortal_a man_n by_o nature_n a_o liar_n and_o every_o moment_n changeable_a yea_o diverse_a time_n not_o prove_v and_o see_v upon_o what_o ground_n what_o reason_n and_o appearance_n it_o be_v either_o conceive_v or_o deliver_v nay_o we_o go_v further_o than_o so_o for_o all_o the_o error_n lie_n foolery_n illusion_n dream_n and_o vain_a vision_n that_o the_o devil_n can_v forge_v to_o destroy_v and_o seduce_v from_o god_n

if_o god_n be_v on_o the_o one_o side_n tell_v we_o one_o thing_n and_o satan_n on_o the_o other_o affirm_v the_o contrary_a this_o father_n of_o lie_n and_o prince_n of_o darkness_n will_v find_v more_o credit_n and_o faith_n with_o we_o than_o god_n shall_v find_v with_o all_o his_o truth_n and_o light_n and_o hereof_o we_o have_v long_o ago_o see_v and_o know_v the_o woeful_a experience_n of_o our_o first_o parent_n who_o be_v wise_a and_o better_a than_o all_o their_o child_n that_o come_v after_o they_o only_a jesus_n christ_n except_v be_v soon_o and_o easy_o persuade_v the_o very_a

and_o that_o which_o make_v i_o to_o marvel_v &_o to_o detest_v the_o more_o our_o malice_n herein_o be_v that_o we_o be_v so_o ready_a to_o receive_v and_o believe_v whatsoever_o this_o wicked_a

on_o the_o contrary_n we_o be_v so_o slow_a to_o allow_v that_o which_o god_n do_v tell_v we_o &_o confirm_v by_o so_o many_o oath_n sign_n witness_n &_o miracle_n that_o we_o may_v be_v save_v but_o i_o will_v leave_v that_o matter_n to_o ask_v you_o another_o doubt_n to_o wit_n whither_o the_o union_n whereof_o you_o have_v speak_v which_o we_o have_v with_o jesus_n christ_n be_v of_o our_o

where_o he_o remain_v that_o we_o may_v be_v join_v and_o couple_v together_o euseb_n you_o propound_v a_o question_n unto_o i_o which_o in_o these_o day_n much_o trouble_v and_o exercise_v the_o

have_v teach_v we_o in_o that_o point_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o the_o union_n be_v corporal_a and_o of_o the_o body_n but_o the_o mean_a be_v spiritual_a even_o as_o the_o unite_n together_o of_o man_n and_o wife_n which_o be_v the_o fit_a comparison_n that_o can_v in_o this_o case_n be_v use_v and_o allege_v their_o body_n be_v unite_v
