and_o upon_o such_o easy_a term_n we_o may_v thank_v ourselves_o if_o we_o be_v as_o we_o deserve_v to_o be_v disease_a and_o miserable_a i_o hope_v we_o be_v sensible_a that_o without_o god_n grace_n and_o divine_a assistance_n we_o can_v do_v nothing_o that_o be_v good_a which_o grace_n be_v his_o free_a gift_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o we_o make_v use_v of_o those_o mean_n and_o observe_v those_o time_n and_o season_n which_o he_o have_v make_v choice_n of_o in_o order_n to_o our_o receive_v that_o his_o charity_n and_o bounty_n now_o the_o chief_a of_o these_o be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n by_o which_o we_o be_v make_v one_o with_o christ_n and_o christ_n with_o we_o and_o he_o dwell_v in_o we_o and_o we_o in_o he_o as_o our_o church_n express_v it_o in_o the_o exhortation_n at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o celebration_n that_o be_v it_o be_v the_o great_a conveyance_n of_o every_o thing_n that_o be_v needful_a to_o the_o strengthen_v and_o refresh_v the_o

goodness_n hither_o must_v we_o come_v if_o we_o will_v be_v partaker_n of_o it_o and_o wilful_o to_o absent_n ourselves_o be_v so_o great_a a_o slight_a both_o of_o the_o die_a institution_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o the_o blessing_n that_o will_v attend_v the_o due_a observance_n of_o it_o as_o be_v utter_o inexcusable_a and_o will_v be_v of_o very_o melancholy_a consequence_n but_o i_o shall_v not_o proceed_v further_o upon_o this_o particular_a either_o in_o give_v a_o account_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o great_a duty_n or_o the_o manner_n of_o perform_v it_o and_o the_o preparation_n requisite_a in_o order_n to_o it_o there_o be_v so_o many_o excellent_a book_n already_o write_v upon_o this_o subject_a only_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o make_v one_o observation_n or_o two_o death_n for_o the_o true_a meaning_n of_o which_o word_n see_v archbishop_n tillotson_n seven_o sermon_n volume_n the_o three_o print_v before_o his_o death_n in_o answer_n to_o the_o usual_a plea_n for_o man_n neglect_n of_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n viz._n that_o they_o be_v unfit_a for_o and_o unworthy_a of_o it_o and_o fear_v therefore_o that_o if_o they_o do_v receive_v it_o they_o shall_v receive_v it_o unworthy_o and_o eat_v and_o drink_v their_o own_o damnation_n as_o for_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o this_o plea_n it_o proceed_v from_o a_o great_a mistake_n namely_o the_o confound_a these_o two_o very_a different_a thing_n be_v unworthy_a to_o receive_v and_o receive_v unworthy_o and_o which_o when_o rectify_v the_o thing_n will_v stand_v in_o a_o clear_a light_n it_o be_v true_a every_o man_n as_o a_o sinner_n be_v unworthy_a not_o only_o of_o so_o great_a a_o favour_n as_o the_o sacrament_n at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n but_o of_o every_o breath_n of_o air_n he_o breathe_v of_o every_o crumb_n of_o bread_n he_o eat_v in_o short_a of_o every_o the_o least_o blessing_n he_o enjoy_v and_o it_o be_v very_o fit_a he_o shall_v be_v intimate_o sensible_a of_o this_o his_o vnworthiness_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o he_o that_o use_v any_o of_o these_o blessing_n sober_o and_o give_v god_n thanks_o may_v very_o worthy_o partake_v of_o and_o enjoy_v they_o so_o here_o in_o this_o case_n of_o the_o sacrament_n the_o best_a man_n living_n can_v say_v he_o be_v worthy_a to_o receive_v it_o but_o yet_o may_v nevertheless_o receive_v it_o worthy_o or_o in_o a_o manner_n become_v so_o sacred_a a_o duty_n nay_o the_o more_o deep_o sensible_a he_o be_v of_o his_o not_o be_v worthy_a to_o receive_v the_o more_o worthy_o no_o doubt_n he_o will_v receive_v it_o and_o it_o be_v he_o that_o receive_v unworthy_o not_o he_o that_o be_v unworthy_a to_o receive_v that_o incur_v the_o gild_n and_o the_o punishment_n which_o the_o apostle_n mention_n 1_o cor._n 11.29_o as_o for_o man_n be_v unfit_a to_o receive_v or_o unprepared_a not_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o oddness_n of_o the_o excuse_n which_o be_v in_o effect_n the_o same_o as_o to_o make_v carelessness_n and_o idleness_n a_o plea_n for_o disobedience_n i_o only_o desire_v they_o will_v ask_v themselves_o upon_o what_o term_n they_o hope_v to_o go_v to_o heaven_n if_o they_o know_v any_o thing_n of_o christianity_n they_o must_v answer_v thus_o i_o hope_v to_o arrive_v at_o that_o happy_a place_n through_o the_o merit_n of_o jesus_n my_o saviour_n upon_o condition_n of_o my_o own_o true_a faith_n and_o sincere_a repentance_n now_o if_o this_o be_v thus_o absolute_o necessary_a to_o our_o salvation_n we_o must_v either_o quit_v our_o hope_n of_o be_v save_v or_o else_o sincere_o believe_v and_o repent_v that_o be_v have_v such_o a_o faith_n as_o purify_v the_o heart_n and_o work_n by_o love_n and_o resemble_v we_o to_o jesus_n and_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o a_o divine_a nature_n and_o so_o repent_v as_o thorough_o to_o amend_v and_o reform_v our_o life_n and_o entire_o to_o turn_v from_o sin_n to_o god_n this_o we_o see_v be_v indispensible_o require_v of_o we_o in_o order_n to_o our_o future_a happiness_n and_o be_v so_o before_o the_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v and_o will_v have_v be_v so_o have_v it_o never_o be_v institute_v at_o all_o now_o that_o which_o be_v so_o necessary_a as_o on_o our_o part_n to_o bring_v we_o to_o heaven_n be_v the_o very_a preparation_n that_o be_v requisite_a to_o fit_v we_o for_o the_o sacrament_n the_o qualification_n for_o both_o be_v exact_o the_o same_o and_o therefore_o he_o that_o hope_v to_o be_v save_v must_v so_o believe_v and_o live_v as_o to_o be_v fit_a to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n unless_o we_o will_v say_v that_o more_o be_v require_v to_o our_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n worthy_o than_o to_o eternal_a salvation_n and_o he_o that_o make_v his_o vnfitness_n the_o excuse_n of_o his_o neglect_n of_o

we_o believe_v the_o scripture_n be_v absolute_o necessary_a to_o the_o happiness_n we_o hope_v for_o in_o the_o other_o world_n for_o without_o holiness_n no_o man_n shall_v see_v the_o lord_n and_o a_o good_a life_n be_v without_o doubt_v the_o best_a preparation_n for_o the_o sacrament_n so_o that_o he_o that_o live_v like_o a_o christian_n be_v fit_a to_o communicate_v and_o he_o that_o do_v not_o be_v fit_a for_o nothing_o but_o ruin_n how_o strange_a a_o excuse_n than_o be_v this_o which_o be_v so_o often_o make_v for_o people_n neglect_n of_o the_o sacrament_n for_o with_o the_o very_a

of_o jesus_n i_o be_o unfit_a for_o heaven_n therefore_o will_v i_o frequent_v the_o sacrament_n though_o i_o be_o young_a and_o probable_o may_v live_v for_o many_o year_n to_o come_v yet_o since_o
