to_o lie_v upon_o one_o to_o shed_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o vile_a rogue_n that_o live_v in_o a_o murderous_a way_n it_o will_v lie_v upon_o the_o conscience_n and_o be_v very_o terrible_a it_o be_v impossible_a that_o such_o a_o man_n can_v be_v quiet_a all_o his_o day_n though_o he_o have_v never_o such_o a_o sear_a conscience_n a_o heathen_a can_v not_o be_v at_o quiet_a if_o he_o have_v the_o guilt_n of_o blood_n lie_v upon_o he_o but_o to_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n who_o blood_n be_v ten_o thousand_o thousand_o time_n more_o worth_a than_o the_o blood_n of_o all_o the_o man_n that_o ever_o live_v upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o earth_n must_v needs_o be_v a_o most_o dreadful_a thing_n it_o be_v a_o fearful_a expression_n guilty_a of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v he_o offer_v such_o a_o indignity_n to_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n as_o the_o lord_n will_v charge_v he_o of_o be_v guilty_a of_o it_o guilty_a of_o abuse_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o then_o he_o do_v eat_v and_o drink_v his_o own_o damnation_n but_o we_o shall_v speak_v more_o to_o that_o when_o we_o come_v to_o show_v how_o god_n will_v sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o those_o that_o do_v not_o sanctify_v it_o here_o in_o this_o holy_a ordinance_n i_o will_v not_o therefore_o spend_v further_a time_n in_o those_o scripture_n for_o i_o bring_v they_o only_o now_o to_o show_v that_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o it_o that_o we_o do_v sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o this_o ordinance_n three_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o strike_v more_o upon_o a_o man_n conscience_n we_o find_v it_o by_o experience_n even_o upon_o wicked_a man_n conscience_n and_o especial_o upon_o such_o begin_v to_o be_v enlighten_v in_o the_o holiness_n of_o this_o ordinance_n god_n have_v put_v much_o honour_n upon_o it_o i_o confess_v some_o man_n may_v use_v it_o superstitious_o though_o it_o be_v a_o ordinance_n of_o christ_n yet_o god_n have_v put_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o honour_n upon_o this_o ordinance_n that_o man_n that_o be_v very_o wicked_a otherwise_o yet_o their_o conscience_n tell_v they_o that_o when_o they_o come_v to_o this_o ordinance_n than_o they_o must_v be_v good_a than_o they_o must_v not_o sin_n but_o have_v good_a thought_n and_o good_a prayer_n at_o that_o time_n and_o many_o time_n they_o dare_v not_o come_v if_o their_o conscience_n tell_v they_o that_o they_o live_v in_o some_o sin_n i_o know_v one_o myself_o once_o that_o be_v to_o be_v execute_v and_o he_o have_v never_o receive_v this_o ordinance_n in_o all_o his_o life_n though_o about_o forty_o year_n of_o age_n and_o be_v ask_v the_o reason_n why_o he_o confess_v that_o he_o live_v in_o some_o sin_n that_o he_o be_v loath_a to_o leave_v and_o therefore_o will_v never_o come_v to_o that_o ordinance_n all_o his_o life_n though_o herein_o the_o devil_n gule_v and_o deceive_v he_o but_o i_o mention_v it_o to_o show_v what_o a_o power_n there_o be_v in_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n about_o this_o ordinance_n this_o ordinary_o be_v one_o of_o the_o first_o thing_n that_o strike_v upon_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n when_o they_o come_v to_o have_v their_o conscience_n awaken_v oh_o how_o have_v i_o profane_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o the_o ordinance_n of_o the_o holy_a communion_n and_o have_v not_o sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o it_o that_o god_n shall_v be_v sanctify_v in_o this_o ordinance_n that_o be_v clear_a enough_o but_o now_o the_o great_a work_n be_v which_o be_v the_o three_o thing_n which_o i_o promise_v to_o show_v how_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o this_o ordinance_n certain_o the_o name_n of_o god_n have_v be_v much_o take_v in_o vain_a there_o have_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o pollution_n in_o the_o use_n of_o this_o ordinance_n and_o in_o man_n spirit_n when_o they_o have_v be_v exercise_v themselves_o in_o such_o a_o holy_a ordinance_n as_o this_o be_v therefore_o i_o will_v open_v this_o to_o you_o and_o shall_v not_o be_v very_o large_a in_o it_o only_o to_o show_v you_o the_o main_a and_o principal_a thing_n that_o may_v serve_v for_o the_o direction_n of_o we_o that_o the_o name_n of_o god_n may_v not_o be_v take_v in_o vain_a and_o dishonour_v as_o heretofore_o and_o i_o shall_v cast_v what_o i_o intend_v to_o speak_v of_o into_o these_o particular_n 1._o that_o whosoever_o be_v to_o partake_v of_o this_o must_v be_v holy_a himself_o none_o can_v sanctify_v god_n but_o he_o must_v have_v a_o sanctify_a heart_n himself_o second_o this_o ordinance_n it_o must_v be_v receive_v in_o a_o holy_a communion_n there_o must_v be_v a_o communion_n of_o saint_n for_o this_o ordinance_n and_o it_o can_v be_v receive_v any_o where_o else_o but_o in_o a_o communion_n of_o saint_n three_o the_o holy_a disposition_n of_o soul_n particular_o or_o the_o qualification_n of_o the_o soul_n that_o be_v require_v or_o the_o sanictfy_n of_o god_n name_n in_o this_o ordinance_n four_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o exiplcite_fw-la go_v out_o of_o the_o soul_n that_o there_o be_v to_o be_v at_o the_o very_a time_n of_o receive_v five_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o christ_n in_o our_o receive_n these_o thing_n be_v require_v for_o the_o sanctify_a of_o the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o this_o ordinance_n for_o the_o first_o those_o that_o come_v must_v be_v holy_a themselves_o this_o be_v a_o ordinance_n not_o appoint_v for_o conversion_n to_o make_v holy_a other_o that_o be_v not_o convert_v may_v come_v to_o the_o word_n because_o the_o word_n be_v appoint_v to_o work_v conversion_n it_o be_v appoint_v to_o work_v grace_n to_o work_v the_o first_o grace_n faith_n come_v by_o hear_v we_o do_v not_o find_v in_o all_o the_o scripture_n that_o this_o be_v appoint_v for_o conversion_n but_o suppose_v conversion_n none_o be_v to_o come_v to_o receive_v this_o sacrament_n but_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o before_o be_v convert_v by_o the_o word_n the_o word_n therefore_o be_v first_o to_o be_v preach_v to_o ●en_n for_o their_o conversion_n and_o then_o this_o be_v a_o ordinance_n appoint_v for_o to_o seal_v they_o therefore_o in_o the_o primitive_a time_n they_o let_v all_o come_v to_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n and_o then_o when_o the_o sermon_n be_v do_v there_o be_v a_o officer_n step_v up_o and_o cry_v holy_a thing_n for_o holy_a man_n and_o then_o all_o other_o where_o to_o go_v out_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v missa_fw-la though_o the_o papist_n do_v corrup_v it_o and_o so_o call_v it_o the_o mass_n afterward_o by_o mix_v there_o own_o invention_n instead_o of_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o it_o have_v that_o name_n at_o first_o i_o say_v this_o holy_a communion_n be_v call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o missa_fw-la because_o that_o all_o other_o be_v send_v away_o and_o only_o such_o as_o be_v of_o the_o church_n and_o account_v godly_a stay_v holy_a thing_n to_o holy_a man_n and_o this_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o because_o that_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o be_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n require_v it_o it_o must_v be_v suppose_v that_o all_o that_o come_v hither_o must_v be_v in_o covenant_n with_o god_n they_o must_v be_v such_o as_o have_v be_v bring_v to_o submit_v to_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n now_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n be_v believe_v and_o be_v save_v it_o be_v therefore_o appoint_v for_o believer_n and_o as_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o begin_v a_o seal_n suppose_v a_o covenant_n so_o none_o can_v have_v his_o covenant_n seal_v to_o they_o but_o those_o that_o do_v first_o submit_v to_o it_o and_o be_v bring_v into_o covenant_n when_o you_o make_v a_o indenture_n and_o put_v to_o the_o seal_n certain_o the_o seal_n belong_v only_o to_o those_o that_o have_v their_o name_n in_o the_o indenture_n now_o it_o be_v true_a though_o man_n name_n be_v not_o mention_v in_o the_o word_n yet_o the_o condition_n be_v to_o those_o that_o be_v bring_v in_o to_o believe_v in_o jesus_n chr_v say_v god_n i_o come_v now_o to_o seal_v all_o my_o mercy_n in_o christ_n to_o their_o soul_n we_o abuse_v god_n if_o we_o come_v to_o take_v the_o seal_n to_o a_o blank_a it_o be_v to_o make_v this_o ordinance_n a_o ridiculous_a thing_n therefore_o there_o must_v be_v some_o transaction_n between_o god_n and_o your_o soul_n before_o you_o come_v to_o the_o seal_n if_o a_o man_n shall_v say_v to_o you_o come_v set_v to_o your_o seal_n to_o such_o a_o thing_n and_o there_o be_v never_o any_o kind_n of_o transaction_n between_o this_o man_n and_o you_o before_o you_o will_v account_v it_o ridiculous_a after_o there_o have_v be_v agreement_n between_o you_o
do_v you_o go_v for_o what_o account_n have_v you_o be_v able_a to_o have_v give_v unto_o he_o you_o must_v understand_v what_o you_o do_v when_o you_o come_v thither_o first_o you_o must_v be_v

of_o thou_o that_o thou_o have_v appoint_v yea_o lord_n i_o be_o now_o go_v to_o receive_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o bless_a covenant_n of_o thou_o the_o second_o covenant_n the_o new_a covenant_n the_o

thus_o you_o must_v come_v in_o understanding_n you_o must_v come_v with_o understanding_n you_o must_v know_v what_o you_o be_v go_v about_o this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o disarm_v the_o lord_n body_n he_o rebuke_n the_o corinthian_n for_o there_o sin_n and_o show_v they_o that_o they_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o

knowledge_n in_o other_o point_n of_o religion_n for_o we_o can_v never_o come_v to_o understand_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o sacrament_n without_o know_v god_n and_o know_v ourselves_o know_v in_o what_o estate_n we_o be_v by_o nature_n know_v our_o fall_n know_v the_o way_n of_o redemtion_n know_v jesus_n christ_n what_o he_o be_v and_o what_o he_o have_v do_v for_o the_o make_n of_o a_o

to_o be_v sensible_a of_o my_o sin_n but_o especial_o be_v sensible_a of_o it_o by_o what_o i_o see_v in_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n that_o must_v make_v i_o sensible_a of_o my_o sin_n there_o be_v a_o

nature_n of_o they_o it_o be_v true_a god_n be_v present_a with_o every_o creature_n when_o we_o eat_v and_o drink_v at_o our_o table_n god_n be_v present_a there_o but_o we_o can_v be_v say_v to_o

have_v put_v into_o the_o nature_n of_o those_o thing_n only_o when_o godly_a people_n take_v they_o and_o receive_v they_o as_o blessing_n sanctify_v by_o the_o word_n they_o take_v they_o as_o the_o

of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o now_o if_o i_o be_v in_o a_o church_n where_o i_o can_v have_v but_o a_o piece_n of_o the_o sacrament_n suppose_v they_o deal_v with_o i_o as_o the_o papist_n do_v with_o

in_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n there_o be_v many_o thing_n require_v as_o first_o there_o be_v require_v knowledge_n i_o must_v know_v what_o i_o do_v when_o i_o come_v to_o receive_v this_o holy_a

and_o have_v say_v thus_o to_o you_o what_o be_v you_o do_v now_o what_o
say_v there_o be_v more_o in_o this_o sacrament_n to_o break_v the_o heart_n for_o sin_n than_o such_o a_o sight_n as_o that_o you_o will_v say_v if_o you_o shall_v have_v christ_n to_o be_v crucify_v again_o before_o your_o eye_n if_o you_o shall_v see_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n hang_v upon_o the_o cross_n and_o there_o behold_v he_o crucify_v and_o hear_v of_o he_o cry_v out_o my_o god_n my_o

come_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n thou_o have_v come_v to_o see_v such_o a_o sight_n and_o it_o be_v as_o great_a a_o aggravation_n of_o the_o hardness_n of_o thy_o heart_n if_o it_o have_v not_o break_v at_o this_o sight_n as_o it_o will_v be_v if_o it_o shall_v not_o break_v at_o that_o sight_n we_o read_v in_o gal._n 3._o 1._o of_o paul_n speak_v of_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n he_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v crucify_v before_o those_o that_o do_v hear_v the_o word_n and_o foolish_a galatian_n who_o have_v bewitch_v you_o that_o you_o shall_v not_o obey_v the_o

the_o word_n be_v preach_v he_o be_v evident_o set_v forth_o and_o crucify_v among_o they_o but_o now_o my_o brethren_n the_o crucify_a of_o christ_n in_o the_o word_n be_v not_o such_o a_o real_a evident_a and_o sensible_a set_n forth_o of_o christ_n crucify_v as_o when_o he_o be_v set_v forth_o in_o this_o sacrament_n and_o it_o be_v that_o which_o work_v with_o more_o efficacy_n to_o break_v the_o heart_n than_o that_o other_o sight_n and_o the_o reason_n that_o i_o give_v be_v this_o because_o you_o do_v never_o find_v that_o god_n do_v set_v that_o apart_o as_o a_o ordinance_n a_o institution_n appoint_v to_o that_o end_n that_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o look_v upon_o that_o for_o the_o break_n of_o there_o heart_n there_o be_v indeed_o a_o naturalness_n in_o it_o that_o if_o they_o do_v behold_v christ_n it_o may_v break_v there_o heart_n but_o it_o be_v not_o such_o a_o ordinance_n it_o be_v not_o a_o sacrament_n as_o this_o be_v now_o this_o be_v in_o a_o sacramental_a way_n in_o the_o use_n of_o a_o ordinance_n appoint_v by_o jesus_n christ_n to_o set_v forth_o his_o suffering_n and_o all_o the_o riches_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n to_o the_o soul_n there_o may_v be_v expect_v here_o a_o further_a blessing_n than_o in_o the_o other_o though_o it_o be_v true_a the_o other_o may_v work_v mighty_o upon_o the_o heart_n but_o yet_o this_o be_v a_o great_a ordinance_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o church_n a_o great_a institution_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o the_o set_n out_o of_o his_o suffering_n it_o have_v a_o more_o special_a blessing_n that_o go_v along_o with_o it_o every_o ordinance_n have_v a_o promise_n and_o a_o more_o special_a blessing_n than_o any_o other_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o a_o ordinance_n so_o when_o you_o come_v here_o to_o behold_v christ_n crucify_v before_o you_o you_o can_v see_v christ_n natural_o crucify_v as_o upon_o the_o cross_n but_o you_o have_v christ_n crucify_v before_o you_o in_o the_o way_n of_o a_o sacrament_n in_o the_o way_n of_o a_o solemn_a institution_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o have_v a_o special_a blessing_n which_o go_v along_o with_o it_o therefore_o if_o the_o heart_n be_v not_o break_v here_o there_o be_v a_o aggravation_n of_o the_o hardness_n of_o the_o heart_n as_o great_a as_o if_o we_o shall_v behold_v jesus_n christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n and_o our_o heart_n not_o

to_o cast_v out_o all_o leaven_n and_o those_o that_o be_v of_o the_o custom_n of_o the_o jew_n say_v that_o they_o be_v wont_a to_o do_v three_o thing_n in_o the_o cast_n out_o of_o their_o leaven_n 1._o they_o make_v diligent_a search_n for_o leaven_n they_o light_v candle_n to_o look_v into_o every_o corner_n lest_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o bit_n of_o leaven_n leave_v in_o the_o house_n 2._o

sermon_n xiii_o leviticus_n 10._o 3._o i_o will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o they_o that_o come_v nigh_o i_o there_o be_v one_o thing_n more_o about_o the_o sanctify_a the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o the_o sacrament_n which_o clear_o concern_v we_o and_o that_o be_v to_o keep_v the_o institution_n of_o the_o sacrament_n for_o this_o be_v such_o a_o worship_n of_o god_n as_o depend_v mere_o upon_o institution_n that_o be_v upon_o a_o positive_a law_n upon_o the_o will_n of_o god_n there_o be_v some_o duty_n of_o worship_n which_o be_v natural_a that_o we_o may_v know_v by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n they_o be_v due_a to_o god_n but_o the_o sacrament_n be_v a_o duty_n of_o worship_n that_o be_v only_o by_o institution_n and_o if_o god_n have_v not_o reveal_v it_o we_o have_v not_o be_v bind_v to_o it_o therefore_o in_o these_o duty_n of_o institution_n god_n stand_v very_o punctual_a upon_o they_o we_o must_v be_v very_o exact_a neither_o to_o err_v on_o the_o right_a hand_n nor_o the_o left_a to_o make_v any_o alteration_n in_o the_o point_n of_o institution_n now_o therefore_o for_o the_o institution_n of_o this_o sacrament_n we_o find_v it_o in_o divers_a of_o the_o evangelist_n in_o matth._n 26._o 26._o there_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o christ_n and_o his_o disciple_n they_o eat_v the_o sacrament_n together_o and_o this_o be_v the_o way_n of_o it_o they_o be_v together_o sit_v at_o the_o same_o table_n so_o it_o be_v call_v the_o table_n of_o the_o lord_n sometime_o in_o scripture_n therefore_o that_o be_v the_o first_o thing_n that_o be_v according_a to_o

be_v but_o any_o particular_a that_o the_o minister_n upon_o a_o particular_a knowledge_n do_v know_v to_o be_v naught_o he_o may_v in_o great_a part_n discharge_v himself_o as_o profess_v against_o

the_o time_n of_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o sacrament_n nothing_o but_o mind_v the_o work_n that_o you_o be_v about_o that_o be_v to_o remember_v the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o

these_o outward_a clement_n do_v signify_v and_o that_o they_o do_v seal_v the_o great_a benefit_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o according_a to_o the_o institution_n to_o be_v sing_v of_o psalm_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n while_o the_o sacrament_n be_v receive_v and_o so_o to_o have_v your_o thought_n about_o other_o thing_n sing_v of_o psalm_n in_o its_o due_a

for_o the_o church_n to_o join_v together_o and_o sing_v a_o psalm_n in_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n and_o then_o they_o must_v mind_v all_o the_o same_o thing_n together_o for_o that_o be_v the_o

observe_v this_o do_v but_o keep_v to_o the_o institution_n in_o the_o sacrament_n though_o you_o may_v think_v it_o a_o more_o mean_a way_n yet_o you_o will_v find_v a_o great_a beauty_n in_o this_o

and_o excellency_n do_v appear_v in_o the_o ordinance_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o when_o any_o man_n shall_v mix_v any_o of_o his_o own_o invention_n though_o he_o may_v do_v it_o to_o a_o good_a

and_o that_o be_v the_o several_a meditation_n that_o we_o shall_v meditate_v on_o in_o receive_v of_o the_o sacrament_n the_o most_o concern_v meditation_n be_v suggest_v in_o the_o holy_a

great_a sign_n that_o man_n and_o woman_n do_v not_o discern_v the_o lord_n body_n if_o so_o be_v their_o meditation_n be_v barren_a at_o that_o time_n i_o will_v therefore_o suggest_v some_o nine_o or_o ten_o meditation_n that_o that_o ordinance_n of_o god_n may_v hold_v out_o very_o plain_o and_o familiar_o to_o every_o communicant_a for_o the_o busy_a of_o their_o thought_n all_o the_o time_n that_o action_n be_v a_o do_v meditation_n 1._o as_o first_o that_o the_o way_n of_o man_n salvation_n it_o be_v by_o a_o mediator_n it_o be_v not_o only_o by_o god_n mercy_n god_n say_v that_o he_o be_v offend_v by_o sin_n but_o he_o will_v be_v content_a to_o pass_v it_o by_o no_o but_o it_o be_v through_o a_o mediator_n now_o this_o meditation_n be_v suggest_v thus_o when_o i_o see_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n if_o i_o discern_v what_o that_o signify_v it_o will_v hold_v out_o this_o to_o i_o that_o the_o way_n of_o man_n salvation_n it_o be_v not_o mere_o from_o hence_o that_o god_n say_v well_o i_o will_v pardon_v they_o and_o no_o more_o but_o there_o be_v require_v a_o great_a work_n of_o god_n to_o make_v a_o atonement_n between_o sinner_n and_o himself_o this_o sacrament_n do_v hold_v forth_o thus_o much_o unto_o we_o wherefore_o else_o have_v we_o bread_n and_o wine_n but_o to_o signify_v that_o the_o way_n of_o our_o reconciliation_n it_o must_v be_v through_o a_o mediator_n med._n 2._o the_o second_o meditation_n be_v this_o that_o this_o mediator_n that_o stand_v between_o god_n and_o we_o be_v very_o and_o true_o man_n he_o have_v take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o the_o bread_n that_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o wine_n of_o his_o blood_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o meditate_v of_o the_o humane_a
nature_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o this_o be_v a_o meditation_n that_o have_v abundance_n that_o may_v spring_v out_o of_o it_o what_o have_v the_o son_n of_o god_n take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o have_v he_o body_n and_o blood_n and_o human_a nature_n upon_o he_o oh_o how_o have_v god_n honour_v humane_a nature_n then_o let_v not_o i_o abuse_v my_o body_n to_o lust_n to_o wickedness_n see_v that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v take_v the_o body_n of_o man_n upon_o he_o humane_a nature_n upon_o he_o let_v i_o honour_v humane_a nature_n that_o be_v so_o near_o unite_v to_o the_o divine_a nature_n that_o be_v the_o second_o meditation_n med._n 3._o here_o be_v present_v unto_o we_o what_o this_o mediator_n have_v do_v for_o the_o reconcile_n of_o we_o unto_o god_n that_o his_o body_n be_v break_v he_o have_v subject_v himself_o to_o the_o break_n of_o his_o body_n and_o to_o the_o pour_v forth_o of_o his_o blood_n for_o the_o reconcile_n of_o we_o it_o be_v not_o mere_o as_o before_o that_o god_n say_v i_o will_v pardon_v they_o but_o christ_n undertake_v to_o make_v peace_n between_o his_o father_n and_o we_o it_o cost_v he_o the_o break_n of_o his_o body_n and_o the_o pour_v forth_o of_o his_o blood_n this_o be_v a_o useful_a meditation_n oh_o what_o shall_v we_o be_v willing_a to_o suffer_v for_o jesus_n christ_n in_o our_o body_n even_o to_o resist_v unto_o

of_o the_o gospel_n and_o this_o be_v very_o needful_a for_o we_o to_o be_v think_v of_o when_o we_o see_v the_o body_n break_v and_o the_o blood_n pour_v out_o what_o will_v the_o break_n of_o the_o

sometime_o the_o disease_n may_v be_v a_o hindrance_n yet_o it_o be_v ordinary_a that_o those_o that_o in_o their_o constant_a way_n do_v sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o holy_a duty_n they_o do_v lie_v

there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o encouragement_n than_o to_o such_o as_o come_v in_o a_o formal_a way_n because_o they_o use_v to_o come_v therefore_o this_o point_n be_v a_o great_a point_n i_o shall_v open_v it_o somewhat_o large_o and_o cast_v into_o this_o method_n first_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o that_o the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n for_o otherwise_o i_o can_v not_o ground_v it_o upon_o my_o text_n second_o i_o shall_v show_v you_o how_o we_o be_v to_o sanctify_v god_n name_n in_o the_o hear_n of_o his_o word_n either_o in_o regard_n of_o preparation_n unto_o it_o or_o our_o behaviour_n in_o hear_v of_o the_o word_n three_o why_o it_o be_v that_o god_n will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o this_o ordinance_n of_o he_o four_o how_o god_n

those_o that_o be_v careful_a to_o sanctify_v his_o name_n in_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n these_o be_v the_o five_o principal_a thing_n that_o concern_v this_o argument_n for_o the_o first_o that_o the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n you_o hear_v in_o the_o open_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n in_o the_o general_n what_o it_o be_v i_o tell_v you_o it_o be_v a_o tender_v up_o of_o the_o creature_n homage_n to_o god_n as_o testimony_n of_o the_o respect_n that_o the_o creature_n do_v owe_v to_o god_n now_o if_o that_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o worship_n certain_o the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n for_o in_o the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n we_o first_o do_v profess_v our_o dependence_n upon_o god_n for_o the_o know_v of_o his_o mind_n and_o the_o way_n to_o eternal_a life_n every_o time_n we_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n if_o we_o know_v what_o we_o do_v we_o do_v thus_o much_o we_o do_v profess_v that_o we_o do_v depend_v upon_o the_o lord_n god_n for_o the_o know_v of_o his_o mind_n and_o the_o way_n and_o rule_n to_o eternal_a life_n we_o do_v as_o much_o as_o if_o we_o shall_v say_v lord_n of_o ourselves_o we_o neither_o know_v thou_o nor_o the_o way_n and_o mean_n how_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o be_v save_v and_o therefore_o that_o we_o may_v testify_v our_o dependence_n upon_o thou_o for_o this_o thing_n we_o here_o present_v ourselves_o before_o thou_o now_o this_o be_v a_o testimony_n of_o the_o high_a respect_n we_o owe_v to_o god_n second_o the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n be_v a_o part_n of_o his_o worship_n because_o in_o it_o we_o come_v to_o wait_v upon_o god_n in_o the_o way_n of_o a_o ordinance_n to_o have_v that_o good_a convey_v to_o we_o by_o way_n of_o a_o ordinance_n beyond_o what_o the_o thing_n in_o itself_o
