of_o christ_n be_v because_o the_o heavenly_a thing_n be_v convey_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o earthly_a the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v it_o not_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o

the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n he_o be_v christ_n than_o it_o be_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o the_o anoint_v of_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o prophet_n of_o the_o

be_v which_o be_v he_o for_o our_o better_a valuation_n and_o great_a consolation_n we_o may_v carry_v my_o through_o all_o the_o attribute_n of_o this_o sacred_a person_n but_o let_v we_o go_v on_o the_o element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v consecrate_v that_o they_o may_v be_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n but_o how_o be_v this_o body_n and_o blood_n to_o be_v consider_v sure_o

the_o sacrament_n have_v a_o especial_a eye_n to_o this_o and_o this_o will_v not_o only_o secure_v our_o soul_n but_o settle_v our_o judgement_n against_o the_o sophistry_n of_o the_o church_n of_o

practice_n of_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o church_n whether_o infidel_n or_o heretic_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o ecclesiastical_a story_n and_o at_o this_o day_n the_o romanist_n use_v the_o very_a

they_o can_v by_o any_o that_o be_v direct_v you_o have_v hear_v from_o what_o we_o must_v be_v separate_v it_o remain_v that_o now_o in_o few_o word_n you_o hear_v how_o far_o this_o it_o set_v down_o in_o three_o verb_n 1_o walk_v 2_o stand_v 3_o sit_v wherein_o there_o be_v a_o gradation_n for_o stand_v be_v more_o than_o walk_v and_o sit_v more_o than_o stand_v but_o this_o gradation_n be_v somewhat_o strange_a for_o though_o in_o exhortation_n we_o do_v rise_v from_o the_o low_a degree_n to_o the_o high_a yet_o in_o dehortation_n we_o use_v to_o fall_v from_o the_o high_a degree_n to_o the_o low_a as_o for_o example_n when_o we_o exhort_v to_o liberality_n we_o tell_v man_n that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o they_o to_o have_v a_o charitable_a heart_n they_o must_v also_o have_v a_o good_a eye_n neither_o will_v a_o good_a eye_n suffice_v except_o they_o have_v a_o liberal_a hand_n so_o do_v we_o by_o degree_n draw_v they_o to_o the_o height_n of_o virtue_n but_o when_o we_o dehort_v as_o for_o example_n from_o murder_n we_o tell_v man_n that_o they_o must_v be_v so_o far_o from_o shed_v blood_n that_o they_o must_v not_o utter_v so_o much_o as_o a_o unkind_a word_n yea_o they_o must_v be_v so_o far_o from_o let_v loose_a their_o tongue_n that_o they_o must_v set_v a_o bridle_n upon_o their_o heart_n so_o do_v we_o endeavour_n to_o hold_v in_o the_o very_a first_o motion_n of_o sin_n strange_a then_o may_v it_o seem_v that_o these_o word_n be_v a_o dehortation_n shall_v follow_v the_o course_n of_o a_o exhortation_n and_o in_o marshal_v of_o sin_n shall_v begin_v at_o the_o least_o but_o the_o reason_n be_v the_o psalmist_n set_v down_o the_o method_n by_o which_o sin_n first_o enter_v upon_o man_n and_o ever_o since_o do_v work_v itself_o into_o man_n to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v observe_v how_o we_o must_v preserve_v ourselves_o from_o it_o and_o take_v heed_n that_o it_o prevail_v not_o so_o far_o as_o to_o bring_v we_o to_o a_o desperate_a case_n there_o be_v three_o degree_n here_o specify_v which_o ascend_v one_o above_o the_o other_o first_o the_o serpent_n try_v whether_o he_o can_v work_v in_o we_o a_o unresoluednesse_n of_o heart_n and_o try_v whether_o we_o be_v steadfast_a in_o our_o faith_n and_o here_o must_v we_o begin_v to_o withstand_v he_o and_o not_o be_v bring_v to_o any_o parley_n such_o deliberation_n must_v be_v avoid_v for_o it_o be_v no_o better_a than_o the_o receive_v the_o serpent_n poison_n into_o our_o understanding_n which_o must_v be_v the_o guide_n of_o our_o life_n but_o if_o we_o have_v be_v so_o foolish_a as_o to_o walk_v in_o his_o counsel_n we_o must_v take_v heed_n that_o we_o bring_v not_o forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o that_o we_o have_v conceive_v and_o let_v not_o our_o life_n witness_n that_o we_o have_v be_v inveighle_v by_o his_o counsel_n we_o must_v not_o stand_v in_o his_o way_n but_o it_o be_v too_o usual_a with_o man_n to_o be_v overtake_v with_o this_o second_o degree_n of_o sin_n wherein_o the_o serpent_n will_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o rest_n he_o will_v carry_v they_o forward_o to_o the_o consummation_n of_o gracelessness_n he_o will_v make_v they_o his_o seedsman_n like_v unto_o himself_o he_o be_v not_o content_v to_o have_v poison_n except_o he_o also_o poison_v other_o and_o who_o he_o can_v work_v to_o be_v a_o serpent_n on_o he_o he_o will_v roar_v like_o a_o lion_n even_o so_o do_v wicked_a man_n when_o they_o be_v come_v to_o the_o height_n of_o sin_n they_o never_o cease_v till_o they_o have_v corrupt_v or_o oppress_v those_o that_o be_v good_a answerable_a to_o this_o contagious_a disposition_n of_o they_o the_o septuagint_n and_o the_o vulgar_a call_v their_o chair_n the_o chair_n of_o pestilence_n for_o it_o be_v observe_v as_o a_o malignancie_n that_o do_v attend_v the_o pestilence_n that_o they_o who_o be_v infect_v take_v great_a delight_n to_o infect_v other_o also_o but_o when_o man_n come_v so_o far_o they_o be_v even_o past_a hope_n nothing_o remain_v but_o that_o judgement_n overtake_v such_o miscreant_n the_o flood_n must_v drown_v these_o giant_n fire_n and_o brimstone_n from_o heaven_n consume_v such_o sodomite_n and_o such_o israelite_n must_v be_v correct_v with_o the_o babylonian_a captivity_n but_o i_o conclude_v you_o see_v how_o far_o a_o man_n may_v go_v in_o sin_n if_o we_o will_v be_v as_o thorough_o separate_v from_o it_o as_o we_o ought_v we_o must_v have_v these_o three_o degree_n always_o before_o our_o eye_n for_o we_o can_v never_o know_v certain_o how_o to_o keep_v ourselves_o in_o the_o way_n that_o do_v not_o know_v how_o far_o we_o may_v go_v out_o of_o the_o way_n wherefore_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n unto_o these_o degree_n that_o we_o slip_v not_o if_o it_o may_v be_v into_o any_o of_o they_o or_o if_o we_o slip_v in_o yet_o that_o we_o go_v not_o so_o far_o as_o to_o be_v past_a recovery_n this_o be_v require_v in_o the_o first_o part_n of_o
