have_v fellowship_n and_o communion_n with_o he_o in_o the_o word_n than_o we_o have_v these_o particular_n viz._n 1._o a_o sin_n if_o any_o man_n shall_v presume_v to_o eat_v that_o bread_n or_o

now_o when_o we_o discern_v not_o this_o nor_o by_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n see_v christ_n jesus_n crucify_v for_o we_o and_o by_o these_o element_n convey_v unto_o we_o but_o take_v they_o hand_n

1._o show_v in_o general_n what_o it_o be_v to_o eat_v unworthy_o 2._o what_o it_o be_v to_o eat_v judgement_n and_o then_o 3._o i_o will_v come_v to_o the_o particular_n how_o this_o sin_n may_v be_v

any_o of_o we_o who_o can_v avouch_v that_o he_o eat_v and_o drink_v at_o the_o lord_n table_n worthy_o be_v any_o so_o presumptuous_a to_o say_v that_o he_o be_v worthy_a to_o eat_v christ_n flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n as_o for_o bodily_a food_n and_o entertainment_n the_o centurion_n can_v say_v i_o be_o not_o worthy_a that_o thou_o shall_v come_v under_o my_o roof_n how_o then_o come_v this_o to_o pass_v that_o he_o which_o eat_v and_o drink_v the_o lord_n body_n unworthy_o eat_v and_o drink_v damnation_n to_o himself_o sol._n but_o here_o understand_v what_o be_v set_v down_o worthiness_n be_v not_o always_o take_v for_o a_o matter_n of_o merit_n or_o proportion_n of_o worth_n between_o the_o person_n give_v and_o receive_v but_o in_o scripture_n it_o be_v often_o take_v for_o that_o which_o be_v meet_v fit_v and_o beseem_v and_o in_o this_o sense_n the_o apostle_n use_v it_o 1_o cor._n 16.4_o if_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o i_o go_v also_o they_o shall_v go_v with_o i_o if_o it_o be_v meet_v the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o worthy_a which_o be_v here_o right_o translate_v meet_a so_o in_o that_o sermon_n of_o saint_n john_n
