Loaf tho made of many Grains of Wheat And this Communion of Fellowship we Christians have one with another in the Lord's Supper Where we all drink of the same Cup and eat of the same Bread 21. But 't is no more lawful to Joyn in the Religious Feasts of Christians and in the Idolatrous Feasts of Pagans than 't is to Worship the True God and False Gods The Wine drank in the Lord's Supper is the Cup of the Lord the Wine drank in the Idolatrous Feasts is the Cup of Devils or False Gods The Table at which we celebrate the Lord's Supper may be call'd the Lord's Table the Table at which they celebrate the Idol-Feasts may be call'd the Table of Devils But as we must not worship Devils and God so neither may we drink the Cup of the Lord and the Cup of Devils We may not be partakers of the Table of the Lord and the Table of Devils Therefore Christians must not Paganize must not be partakers in the Idolatrous Feasts of Pagans the Lord's Supper being the Christians Religious Feast and we must not Worship the True God and False Gods V. 1 Cor. 11.17 34. IN this Chapter the Apostle reproves the Corinthians for their Misrepresentation and Prophanation of the Lord's Supper which were introduced to the great Scandal and Danger of Christianity by the vicious Disorders they were guilty of at those Entertainments which were made before the Celebration of the Lord's Supper among them as the Paschal Entertainment was before the Celebration of it by Christ and his Apostles 17. AS to what I hear is done by you at the Celebration of the Lord's Supper saith St. Paul I cannot either Justify or Excuse it because by your disorderly Behaviour 〈◊〉 so Solemn an Occasion you are Guilty of intolerable Wickedness and Prophaneness and are not upon the whole the better for the Religious Duty but the worse for your gross Immoralities 18. I am informed and have too much Reason to believe the Information that in your Assemblies there are unfriendly and scandalous Animosities among You. The Judaizing Christians entertain those who are of their own Perswasion with an unchristian Partiality neglecting those who being Gentile Converts differ from them Acts 15. and Acts 18 1 11. and not only Violate Charity at their Feasts of Charity but also Indulge Themselves to an Excess which is Inexcusable at all Times and Intolerable at this 19. Diversity of Opinions in Matters of Religion there will be among the Professors of it But by their Good and Religious Behaviour on such Occasions those who are Truly Religious will be distinguished from Others 20. Those who are not Truly Religious will by their unchristian and vicious Behaviour expose Themselves and their Religion And when They in that Vicious Manner partake of the Lord's Supper they Provoke God's Wrath against them for Prophaning his Institution 21. At the previous Entertainment They allow in Themselves malicious Animosity and shameful Excess This is inexcusably Prophane and Irreligious 22. That eating and drinking which is for the Use and Necessity of Nature should be in your Private Houses and according to the Measures of Sobriety But not to have so much distinguishing Regard for the Lord's Supper as not to Abstain from gross Immoralities when you are about to Celebrate the Lord's Supper This is a very high Contempt of Religion and of the Son of God our Saviour 23. THAT which I have Taught you concerning the Celebration of the Lord's Supper I was Taught by Jesus Christ himself the Author of our Religion and of our Salvation And that is this The Lord Jesus Christ in the Eve of that Day on which he Dy'd Celebrated the Jewish Passover with his Disciples and closed that Solemnity eating Bread and drinking Wine with Thanksgiving unto God for the deliverance Commemorated thereby according to the custom and usage of the Jews Luke 22.15 18. 24. After this he took Bread again and holding it in his Hand he gave Thanks unto God in a form of words suitable to the Nature of this Institution and the Design of his Death at which the new State of Religion under the Messiah called the Kingdom of God and the New Testament or Covenant was set up By which the great Propitiation for Sin was made and the Salvation of Men was effected and having broken the Bread he gave it to his Disciples and said Take and eat this This Action is the Memorial of my Death which I Suffer for you and for mankind Do this therefore in Remembrance of Me. 25. Also after the Passover was ended he took a Cup of Wine and holding it in his Hand he gave Thanks again unto God in a form of words suitable to the Nature of the Institution and the Design of his Death And gave the Cup to his Disciples saying This Action is the Memorial of my Death at which the Blood of the New Testament or Covenant Ex. 24.8 is shed and the State of Religion under the Messiah is set up And the great Propitiation for the Sins of the whole World is made Drink this therefore in Remembrance of Me. 26. THUS says the Apostle as often as Christians eat this Bread and drink this Wine of the Lord's Supper in obedience to the command of our blessed Lord they do a solemn Action in Remembrance of him and his Death until he come again at the last Day Acts 1.11 27. Therefore whosoever shall perform this sacred Action and celebrate the Memorial of Christ and his Death so unworthily as not to distinguish it from the Paschal Supper or even from a sober Feast are liable to the Judgments of God as if in a Sort they were Guilty of the Death of his Son 28. Let every one then Approve himself to Go● by a truly Religious performance of this solemn Duty 29. For he that performs it so unworthily as by his Immoralities of Malice and Intemperance at the very time to Prophane it will unavoidably bring the Judgments of God upon himself for so doing not distinguishing the Lord's Supper from all other eating and drinking by a religious and devout Celebration of it 30. And indeed 't is for the Prophanation of the Lord's Supper that some of You are Sick and others Dead The sickness and death among you are the Judgments of God upon you for this wickedness 31. But if ye would reform these Miscarriages God would withhold those Judgments 32. For God sends these Judgments upon you in order to your Amendment That you may not at last be eternally damned for your Impenitency 33 34. Wherefore Brethren my Exhortation to you is That at your Entertainments before the Lord's Supper ye receive one another with Charity and Christian Friendship And that every one be sure to eat and drink with exact Temperance And as for other Matters I will give you Advice when I see you FINIS BOOKS Printed for William Rogers at the Sun against St. Dunstan 's Church in Fleetstreet ARchbishop Tillotsons's Sermons of the Stedfastness in Religion of Family-Religion of Education of Children and the Advantage of an early Piety Twelves Price 1 s. 6 d.
