A10898 A treatise of the two sacraments of the Gospell: baptisme and the Supper of the Lord Divided into two parts. The first treating of the doctrine and nature of the sacraments in generall, and of these two in speciall; together with the circumstances attending them. The second containing the manner of our due preparation to the receiving of the Supper of the Lord; as also, of our behaviour in and after the same. Whereunto is annexed an appendix, shewing; first, how a Christian may finde his preparation to the Supper sweete and easie: secondly, the causes why the sacrament is so unworthily received by the worst; and so fruitefly by the better sort: with the remedies to avoyd them both. By D.R. B. of Divin. minister of the Gospell. D. R. (Daniel Rogers), 1573-1652. 1633 (1633) STC 21169; ESTC S112046 376,405 453

the_o object_n of_o persuasion_n by_o the_o seal_n be_v double_a first_o persuasion_n of_o the_o soul_n that_o she_o be_v true_o the_o lord_n true_o call_v regenerate_v and_o bear_v of_o god_n that_o be_v to_o say_v reconcile_v to_o he_o and_o renew_v in_o he_o second_o persuasion_n that_o she_o grow_v in_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o new_a birth_n and_o shall_v grow_v as_o a_o lively_a member_n of_o her_o head_n till_o she_o receive_v the_o fullness_n of_o that_o part_n that_o god_n be_v the_o author_n of_o both_o persuasion_n appear_v by_o the_o two_o main_a head_n of_o unbelief_n which_o
