luke_n 6.46_o but_o second_o well_o may_v we_o say_v that_o a_o total_a and_o wilful_a neglect_n of_o this_o ordinance_n be_v a_o unworthy_a deal_n with_o christ_n if_o we_o consider_v how_o ungrateful_a deal_n it_o be_v with_o he_o also_o i_o suppose_v none_o pretend_v to_o be_v true_a christian_n or_o pretend_v to_o stay_v away_o from_o this_o ordinance_n out_o of_o fear_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v fit_a for_o it_o but_o what_o have_v some_o sense_n of_o the_o nature_n and_o design_n of_o this_o ordinance_n that_o it_o be_v institute_v as_o a_o memorial_n of_o chrst_n suffering_n for_o we_o and_o the_o benefit_n thereof_o and_o now_o how_o unworthy_o do_v we_o deal_v with_o he_o though_o we_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v by_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o suffering_n yet_o we_o wilful_o neglect_v to_o celebrate_v the_o memorial_n of_o they_o or_o do_v so_o much_o in_o remembrance_n of_o he_o as_o thankful_o to_o show_v forth_o his_o death_n till_o he_o come_v in_o way_n of_o his_o own_o appointment_n but_o perhaps_o here_o some_o may_v say_v that_o we_o can_v think_v of_o christ_n love_n to_o man_n in_o suffer_v for_o they_o without_o come_v to_o this_o ordinance_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v i_o do_v say_v but_o they_o may_v but_o yet_o not_o so_o acceptable_o with_o god_n so_o long_o as_o they_o live_v in_o the_o neglect_n of_o this_o appoint_a way_n of_o remembrance_n because_o christ_n have_v appoint_v this_o as_o the_o great_a memorial_n and_o therefore_o may_v well_o take_v it_o ill_o when_o man_n neglect_v his_o way_n and_o time_n of_o remembrance_n and_o stick_v only_o to_o their_o own_o which_o if_o they_o can_v remember_v his_o love_n as_o acceptable_o in_o as_o in_o that_o which_o he_o have_v appoint_v why_o do_v he_o appoint_v such_o a_o ordinance_n for_o this_o end_n certain_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o think_v any_o thing_n impertinent_a or_o of_o little_a use_n and_o acceptance_n which_o he_o have_v command_v much_o less_o that_o which_o indeed_o be_v the_o great_a ordinance_n of_o convey_v the_o pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o confirm_v our_o interest_n in_o christ_n sure_o if_o any_o man_n under_o the_o law_n shall_v plead_v for_o his_o neglect_n of_o sacrifice_v though_o god_n command_v sacrifice_n that_o he_o can_v pray_v to_o god_n well_o enough_o though_o he_o offer_v up_o no_o sacrifice_n such_o a_o excuse_n or_o plea_n will_v not_o have_v be_v allow_v but_o will_v have_v be_v reckon_v as_o a_o virtual_a despise_n of_o sacrifice_n as_o unnecessary_a and_o consequent_o will_v have_v be_v very_o dangerous_a for_o so_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o that_o despise_a moses_n his_o law_n dye_v without_o mercy_n heb._n 10.28_o and_o now_o since_o christ_n have_v not_o only_o do_v so_o much_o for_o we_o but_o have_v leave_v it_o in_o charge_n at_o his_o death_n that_o we_o shall_v take_v and_o eat_v yea_o that_o we_o shall_v all_o drink_v in_o remembrance_n of_o he_o and_o we_o look_v upon_o this_o charge_n as_o necessary_a to_o be_v observe_v by_o we_o can_v we_o think_v he_o will_v not_o take_v it_o ill_o at_o our_o hand_n and_o punish_v we_o for_o our_o neglect_n unless_o we_o repent_v yea_o say_v the_o apostle_n see_v that_o you_o refuse_v not_o he_o that_o speak_v for_o if_o they_o escape_v not_o who_o refuse_v he_o that_o speak_v on_o earth_n much_o more_o shall_v not_o we_o escape_v if_o we_o turn_v away_o from_o he_o who_o speak_v from_o heaven_n heb._n 12.25_o but_o second_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o a_o total_a and_o wilful_a neglect_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v as_o dangerous_a as_o the_o receive_n it_o unworthy_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o unworthy_a deal_n there_o be_v thereby_o with_o the_o sacrament_n itself_o for_o by_o a_o total_a and_o wilful_a neglect_n of_o this_o ordinance_n we_o either_o show_v that_o we_o do_v not_o reckon_v it_o a_o necessary_a ordinance_n which_o yet_o be_v the_o most_o solemn_a ordinance_n in_o the_o christian_a worship_n that_o be_v a_o memorial_n of_o his_o great_a love_n and_o a_o show_v forth_o of_o his_o death_n till_o he_o come_v or_o else_o we_o make_v it_o to_o use_v the_o word_n a_o bugbear_n or_o more_o dreadful_a than_o it_o be_v and_o so_o deal_v unworthy_o by_o it_o when_o we_o act_v as_o if_o it_o be_v such_o a_o ordinance_n that_o be_v a_o great_a occasion_n of_o offence_n or_o ruin_n than_o any_o other_o in_o that_o we_o suppose_v it_o as_o one_o that_o be_v less_o possible_a to_o be_v do_v worthy_o as_o to_o god_n acceptance_n than_o any_o other_o which_o to_o suppose_v be_v not_o only_o to_o have_v ungracious_a thought_n of_o it_o but_o be_v a_o reflect_v upon_o the_o goodness_n as_o well_o as_o wisdom_n of_o christ_n who_o have_v order_v this_o as_o a_o mean_n for_o our_o salvation_n if_o we_o be_v but_o sincere_a as_o indeed_o we_o ought_v as_o well_o as_o pretend_v to_o be_v in_o other_o ordinance_n i_o be_o apt_a to_o think_v that_o many_o of_o these_o man_n who_o stay_v away_o altogether_o from_o this_o ordinance_n for_o fear_n as_o they_o say_v lest_o if_o they_o come_v to_o it_o they_o shall_v come_v unworthy_o be_v yet_o apt_a to_o hope_v that_o notwithstanding_o their_o unfitness_n to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n if_o they_o shall_v happen_v to_o die_v they_o shall_v receive_v the_o thing_n signify_v by_o the_o sacrament_n viz._n the_o pardon_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n through_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n suffering_n and_o now_o if_o these_o person_n notwithstanding_o their_o unworthiness_n for_o the_o receive_v of_o the_o sacrament_n do_v yet_o trust_v in_o god_n mercy_n for_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v and_o exhibit_v in_o the_o sacrament_n why_o may_v they_o not_o also_o trust_v god_n mercy_n for_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o sign_n if_o they_o trust_v to_o receive_v the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n merit_n why_o shall_v they_o distrust_v the_o institution_n for_o that_o end_n nay_o if_o any_o of_o these_o person_n shall_v lie_v upon_o a_o deathbed_n upon_o ask_v i_o suppose_v they_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o assert_v their_o hope_n of_o salvation_n through_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n though_o they_o be_v unworthy_a of_o it_o and_o now_o be_v not_o man_n that_o be_v sincere_a in_o what_o they_o say_v as_o fit_a to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n as_o they_o be_v fit_a to_o die_v yea_o sure_o if_o they_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n they_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o die_v or_o receive_v the_o pardon_n of_o their_o sin_n for_o indeed_o i_o can_v find_v where_o god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v more_o merciful_a to_o man_n at_o their_o death_n than_o at_o the_o sacrament_n it_o be_v very_o easy_o to_o be_v believe_v that_o he_o who_o will_v pardon_v we_o when_o we_o come_v to_o die_v will_v pardon_v we_o also_o when_o we_o prepare_v ourselves_o as_o well_o as_o we_o can_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n it_o be_v as_o easy_a also_o to_o think_v that_o those_o who_o god_n will_v receive_v as_o fit_v for_o heaven_n he_o will_v receive_v also_o as_o fit_v for_o his_o ordinance_n upon_o earth_n and_o therefore_o person_n deal_v very_o unworthy_o with_o this_o when_o they_o represent_v it_o as_o more_o dreadful_a than_o it_o be_v but_o three_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o a_o total_a and_o wilful_a neglect_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v as_o dangerous_a as_o the_o receive_v it_o unworthy_o if_o we_o consider_v that_o the_o be_v without_o those_o preparatory_a and_o

we_o do_v receive_v it_o if_o a_o man_n have_v the_o qualification_n of_o a_o worthy_a communicant_a he_o be_v fit_a to_o receive_v but_o if_o he_o have_v they_o not_o whether_o he_o receive_v the_o
