delight_v to_o do_v thy_o will_n o_o my_o god._n o_o ineffable_a and_o amaze_a love_n to_o mankind_n who_o deserve_v nothing_o but_o a_o eternal_a curse_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o lamb_n that_o god_n make_v a_o covenant_n with_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n so_o the_o eucharist_n represent_v to_o we_o in_o the_o five_o place_n that_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o ground_n and_o foundation_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n which_o god_n have_v make_v with_o christian_n we_o can_v look_v upon_o the_o sacrament_n as_o the_o pledge_n and_o seal_n of_o this_o covenant_n without_o be_v fill_v with_o a_o excess_n of_o joy_n and_o consolation_n for_o indeed_o what_o great_a glory_n can_v be_v imagine_v than_o for_o man_n to_o be_v admit_v to_o a_o treaty_n with_o god_n and_o what_o a_o inconceivable_a advantage_n be_v this_o that_o god_n shall_v vouchsafe_v to_o enter_v into_o covenant_n with_o we_o there_o be_v none_o but_o be_v sensible_a of_o the_o happiness_n of_o the_o israelite_n in_o this_o regard_n to_o be_v convince_v of_o which_o we_o need_v only_o hear_v they_o even_o at_o this_o day_n speak_v with_o the_o great_a comfort_n of_o the_o honour_n god_n therein_o have_v do_v they_o notwithstanding_o their_o total_a dispersion_n and_o groan_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o that_o curse_n which_o pursue_v and_o overtake_v they_o every_o where_n now_o that_o ancient_a covenant_n god_n have_v abolish_v as_o be_v imperfect_a but_o this_o which_o we_o commemorate_v be_v to_o endure_v for_o ever_o the_o design_n of_o the_o former_a be_v only_o to_o give_v the_o jew_n a_o lively_a sense_n of_o sin_n or_o at_o the_o best_a to_o administer_v a_o typical_a expiation_n whereas_o the_o latter_a viz._n the_o new_a according_a to_o the_o prophet_n jeremy_n make_v a_o true_a atonement_n for_o sin_n and_o afford_v a_o remission_n right_o and_o proper_o so_o call_v that_o have_v no_o promise_n but_o what_o concern_v a_o happiness_n here_o on_o earth_n whereas_o this_o do_v promise_v a_o resurrection_n and_o eternal_a glory_n the_o great_a honour_n the_o old_a covenant_n do_v confer_v upon_o the_o jew_n be_v this_o that_o the_o messiah_n shall_v be_v bear_v of_o their_o blood_n but_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o new_a be_v that_o the_o messiah_n partake_v of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n with_o the_o rest_n of_o mankind_n have_v give_v his_o own_o blood_n to_o raise_v they_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o adoption_n who_o shall_v believe_v in_o him._n o_o how_o happy_a be_v the_o people_n who_o god_n be_v the_o lord_n and_o what_o do_v this_o expression_n to_o be_v the_o god_n of_o any_o one_o import_n but_o this_o viz._n to_o be_v his_o great_a and_o sovereign_a benefactor_n of_o old_a he_o be_v the_o god_n of_o abraham_n but_o not_o of_o loath_a and_o his_o posterity_n of_o isaac_n but_o not_o of_o ishmael_n and_o his_o offspring_n of_o jacob_n but_o not_o of_o esau_n and_o the_o edomite_n now_o he_o be_v the_o god_n of_o all_o the_o earth_n but_o he_o have_v not_o make_v this_o covenant_n with_o all_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o world_n save_v only_o by_o virtue_n and_o on_o the_o sole_a account_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o can_v we_o with_o any_o attention_n reflect_v on_o this_o truth_n represent_v to_o we_o in_o the_o holy_a eucharist_n without_o feel_v a_o joy_n unspreakable_a and_o full_a of_o glory_n god_n have_v promise_v to_o enter_v into_o such_o a_o covenant_n as_o this_o and_o jeremy_n describe_v it_o in_o the_o 31._o chap._n of_o his_o prophecy_n yet_o the_o old_a last_v till_o john_n the_o baptist_n and_o so_o long_a the_o ceremony_n of_o it_o be_v in_o use_n but_o than_o come_v christ_n and_o instead_o of_o continue_v the_o celebration_n of_o the_o old_a covenant_n which_o be_v make_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o paschal_n lamb_n he_o abrogate_v it_o and_o in_o its_o room_n substitute_n the_o new_a covenant_n make_v in_o his_o own_o blood._n do_v this_o say_v he_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o not_o that_o which_o be_v do_v before_o but_o this_o for_o this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n which_o be_v shed_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o your_o sin_n to_o conclude_v it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v and_o this_o be_v the_o last_o vein_n of_o comfort_n hide_v in_o the_o eucharist_n that_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n invite_v we_o to_o take_v a_o view_n of_o christ_n second_o come_v as_o well_o as_o of_o his_o dispensation_n in_o the_o flesh_n it_o be_v impossible_a but_o it_o must_v fill_v our_o soul_n with_o surpass_a joy_n and_o comfort_n the_o full_a salvation_n of_o believer_n do_v as_o yet_o only_o consist_v in_o hope_n god_n indeed_o pardon_v their_o sin_n but_o they_o be_v still_o subject_a to_o all_o the_o misery_n sin_n have_v bring_v into_o the_o world._n they_o hope_v for_o eternal_a life_n and_o yet_o die_v like_o other_o men._n their_o body_n be_v lay_v in_o the_o grave_a and_o become_v the_o food_n of_o worm_n so_o that_o their_o expectation_n seem_v to_o be_v quite_o frustrate_v and_o as_o the_o jew_n and_o gentile_n find_v matter_n of_o scandal_n and_o derision_n in_o the_o death_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n so_o according_a to_o all_o outward_a appearance_n they_o have_v the_o same_o reason_n to_o insult_v over_o the_o faith_n and_o hope_n of_o his_o follower_n when_o they_o compare_v these_o with_o their_o present_a condition_n which_o to_o the_o eye_n differ_v not_o from_o that_o of_o other_o men._n but_o all_o these_o dark_a cloud_n shall_v at_o last_o be_v scatter_v these_o shadow_n vanish_v and_o the_o glory_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o his_o faithful_a be_v reveal_v he_o shall_v appear_v from_o heaven_n in_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n and_o every_o eye_n shall_v see_v he_o even_o they_o who_o have_v pierce_v him._n and_o as_o he_o will_v thus_o display_v his_o majesty_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o all_o the_o world_n so_o will_v he_o at_o the_o same_o time_n unveil_v the_o life_n and_o glory_n of_o his_o child_n who_o at_o present_a be_v ready_a to_o sink_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o sin_n the_o violence_n of_o christ_n adversary_n the_o deceit_n of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o devil_n and_o the_o power_n of_o death_n which_o be_v the_o last_o enemy_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o church_n he_o that_o eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n have_v eternal_a life_n and_o i_o will_v raise_v he_o up_o at_o the_o last_o day_n whosoever_o eat_v of_o this_o bread_n shall_v live_v for_o ever_o these_o be_v our_o saviour_n promise_n wherein_o as_o he_o term_v the_o

chap._n vi_o of_o the_o duty_n prescribe_v to_o we_o in_o the_o holy_a eucharist_n i_o suppose_v i_o have_v very_o clear_o make_v out_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a attentive_o to_o consider_v the_o
