at_o any_o time_n forget_v we_o this_o shall_v and_o must_v persuade_v we_o to_o make_v the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n our_o continual_a remembrance_n reason_n 2_o second_o god_n always_o

always_o oh_o how_o ought_v we_o to_o remember_v christ_n death_n always_o too_o it_o be_v true_a god_n can_v be_v say_v proper_o to_o remember_v any_o thing_n because_o remembrance_n be_v of_o thing_n past_a nothing_o be_v pass_v in_o respect_n of_o god_n all_o thing_n be_v still_o present_v before_o him_z neither_o can_v he_o be_v say_v proper_o to_o remember_v one_o thing_n more_o than_o

say_v to_o remember_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o more_o and_o above_o all_o thing_n else_o because_o he_o show_v in_o his_o outward_a proceed_n more_o respect_n to_o the_o death_n of_o

to_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o wicked_a it_o be_v respective_o to_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n they_o have_v no_o part_n in_o christ_n whatsoever_o danger_n thou_o escape_v thou_o escape_v

even_o as_o much_o as_o the_o price_n of_o our_o life_n and_o soul_n be_v worth_a therefore_o let_v we_o always_o have_v that_o in_o our_o heart_n always_o in_o a_o readiness_n about_o we_o because_o

it_o be_v true_a indeed_o when_o christ_n offer_v himself_o upon_o the_o cross_n that_o then_o his_o blood_n be_v actual_o shed_v and_o never_o else_o yet_o it_o be_v as_o true_a that_o the_o blood_n

to_o feed_v upon_o but_o the_o thought_n of_o the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v most_o fit_v for_o this_o present_a estate_n in_o this_o estate_n we_o be_v daily_o to_o be_v cast_v down_o before_o the_o lord_n nothing_o will_v humble_v we_o so_o thorough_o as_o the_o thought_n of_o the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n still_o we_o must_v have_v sin_n to_o be_v crucify_v
