to_o come_v and_o partake_v of_o the_o lords-table_n then_o we_o must_v have_v some_o ground_n to_o hope_n and_o persuade_v ourselves_o that_o we_o have_v some_o right_n to_o it_o or_o else_o we_o can_v partake_v in_o faith_n object_n but_o you_o will_v say_v this_o may_v be_v a_o ground_n of_o discouragement_n to_o many_o a_o gracious_a heart_n many_o a_o gracious_a soul_n be_v exercise_v with_o scruple_n of_o conscience_n and_o may_v question_v whether_o they_o have_v a_o right_n or_o no_o and_o such_o by_o this_o direction_n must_v be_v force_v to_o withhold_v from_o it_o answ_n for_o answer_v brief_o we_o be_v to_o know_v that_o every_o doubt_n and_o scruple_n and_o question_v that_o christian_n may_v have_v about_o their_o come_n to_o this_o ordinance_n be_v not_o sufficient_a for_o they_o to_o withdraw_v from_o it_o or_o to_o withhold_v their_o presence_n in_o it_o no_o they_o be_v not_o present_o therefore_o to_o withdraw_v and_o withhold_v from_o the_o participation_n of_o it_o what_o shall_v they_o do_v then_o you_o will_v say_v answ_n brief_o i_o pray_v mind_n it_o because_o it_o may_v concern_v some_o that_o be_v scrupulous_a and_o to_o be_v exercise_v with_o question_n and_o doubt_n whether_o they_o have_v right_a to_o it_o or_o no_o therefore_o such_o be_v serious_o to_o consider_v what_o the_o ground_n of_o their_o doubt_n and_o scruple_n be_v whether_o it_o be_v sufficient_a and_o warrantable_a to_o cause_v a_o withdrawment_n from_o this_o ordinance_n among_o other_o the_o ground_n of_o scruple_n in_o this_o case_n may_v be_v reduce_v to_o three_o head_n first_o possible_o some_o do_v question_n and_o scruple_n their_o come_n to_o this_o ordinance_n for_o fear_v they_o shall_v eat_v and_o drink_v unworthy_o and_o so_o eat_v and_o drink_v their_o own_o damnation_n that_o be_v my_o fear_n say_v one_o and_o therefore_o i_o dare_v not_o come_v i_o fear_v i_o may_v not_o come_v i_o pray_v now_o therefore_o consider_v this_o brief_o for_o i_o may_v not_o enlarge_v but_o consider_v this_o whether_o a_o man_n question_n whether_o he_o shall_v eat_v and_o drink_v unworthy_o be_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n and_o warrant_v for_o he_o to_o withhold_v from_o the_o lords-table_n i_o pray_v mind_n and_o consider_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v 1_o cor._n 11.27_o 28._o wherefore_o whosoever_o shall_v eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n of_o the_o lord_n unworthy_o shall_v be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o the_o lord_n let_v a_o man_n examine_v himself_o and_o so_o let_v he_o eat_v mark_v do_v the_o apostle_n say_v that_o he_o that_o fear_v that_o he_o shall_v eat_v and_o drink_v unworthy_o shall_v therefore_o withhold_v no_o but_o let_v he_o be_v the_o more_o solicitous_a and_o careful_a to_o examine_v himself_o and_o prepare_v himself_o that_o he_o may_v not_o partake_v unworthy_o of_o it_o that_o the_o apostle_n do_v intimate_v the_o apostle_n do_v not_o give_v a_o liberty_n upon_o it_o to_o withhold_v therefore_o i_o say_v that_o be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a ground_n because_o we_o fear_v we_o shall_v partake_v unworthy_o but_o therefore_o we_o shall_v be_v the_o more_o solicitous_a and_o careful_a to_o examine_v ourselves_o and_o to_o be_v prepare_v ourselves_o the_o more_o to_o partake_v of_o this_o ordinance_n second_o ordinary_o some_o do_v fear_n and_o doubt_n whether_o they_o may_v partake_v of_o this_o ordinance_n or_o no_o by_o reason_n they_o find_v themselves_o so_o weak_a in_o grace_n oh_o say_v one_o my_o faith_n be_v so_o weak_a and_o my_o other_o grace_n so_o weak_a that_o i_o fear_v i_o shall_v but_o sin_n if_o i_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o lords-table_n now_o i_o pray_v consider_v whether_o this_o be_v a_o sufficient_a scruple_n or_o no_o for_o i_o pray_v mark_n consider_v the_o end_n of_o this_o ordinance_n and_o for_o who_o it_o be_v appoint_v what_o be_v it_o appoint_v for_o those_o that_o be_v perfect_a in_o grace_n for_o those_o that_o be_v perfect_a in_o faith_n and_o other_o grace_n be_v it_o not_o appoint_v rather_o to_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o perfect_a and_o strengthen_v our_o grace_n therefore_o the_o weak_a we_o apprehend_v our_o grace_n to_o be_v the_o more_o need_n we_o have_v to_o draw_v near_o to_o christ_n in_o this_o ordinance_n for_o the_o further_a communication_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o grace_n to_o we_o that_o we_o may_v be_v strengthen_v in_o our_o inward_a man_n and_o have_v our_o grace_n increase_v that_o be_v the_o second_o scruple_n three_o the_o three_o scruple_n may_v be_v this_o which_o common_o be_v the_o great_a of_o all_o but_o suppose_v that_o i_o have_v no_o grace_n at_o all_o as_o i_o question_v whether_o i_o have_v any_o grace_n in_o truth_n or_o no_o upon_o examination_n of_o myself_o i_o can_v find_v that_o i_o have_v any_o faith_n be_v it_o for_o i_o to_o come_v to_o this_o ordinance_n mark_v i_o pray_v in_o a_o word_n brief_o a_o soul_n sometime_o under_o temptation_n may_v be_v ready_a to_o conclude_v it_o have_v no_o grace_n at_o all_o but_o i_o pray_v consider_v thus_o much_o though_o a_o soul_n can_v say_v that_o it_o do_v true_o believe_v on_o christ_n yet_o if_o so_o be_v there_o be_v a_o real_a hunger_a and_o thirst_v after_o christ_n a_o real_a desire_n after_o christ_n in_o such_o a_o case_n a_o soul_n be_v to_o come_v and_o partake_v of_o this_o ordinance_n bless_v be_v they_o that_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n after_o righteousness_n for_o they_o shall_v be_v fill_v therefore_o though_o you_o can_v say_v certain_o that_o you_o have_v faith_n real_o wrought_v in_o you_o yet_o notwithstanding_o if_o there_o be_v a_o real_a hunger_n and_o desire_v and_o thirst_n after_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o christ_n and_o communion_n with_o christ_n in_o such_o a_o case_n a_o soul_n may_v may_v come_v to_o partake_v of_o this_o ordinance_n and_o such_o a_o soul_n have_v a_o right_a to_o it_o this_o be_v now_o a_o three_o direction_n how_o we_o may_v come_v in_o faith_n to_o this_o ordinance_n namely_o to_o have_v some_o ground_n to_o persuade_v we_o to_o hope_v that_o we_o have_v a_o right_a to_o it_o otherwise_o we_o can_v come_v in_o faith_n four_o take_v a_o four_o direction_n which_o be_v this_o namely_o if_o we_o will_v act_v and_o exercise_v faith_n in_o this_o ordinance_n than_o we_o must_v be_v careful_a to_o be_v find_v diligent_a in_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v require_v towards_o our_o preparation_n to_o it_o i_o pray_v mind_n it_o it_o be_v the_o proper_a nature_n of_o faith_n to_o put_v a_o soul_n upon_o diligence_n in_o apply_v its_o self_n to_o the_o mean_n for_o the_o obtain_n of_o any_o end_n it_o be_v the_o proper_a nature_n of_o faith_n to_o put_v a_o soul_n upon_o the_o diligent_a use_n of_o mean_n tend_v thereunto_o this_o be_v the_o proper_a nature_n of_o faith_n indeed_o presumption_n if_o it_o have_v any_o hope_n of_o any_o blessing_n or_o mercy_n presumption_n lead_v a_o man_n to_o neglect_v the_o mean_n but_o the_o proper_a work_n and_o nature_n of_o faith_n be_v to_o lead_v a_o soul_n to_o the_o diligent_a use_n of_o the_o mean_n to_o obtain_v the_o mercy_n or_o blessing_n it_o hope_v for_o i_o can_v give_v you_o divers_a instance_n in_o scripture_n for_o this_o how_o faith_n do_v put_v a_o soul_n upon_o the_o diligent_a use_n of_o mean_n that_o be_v
