practice_n of_o this_o duty_n be_v not_o always_o like_o martha_n trouble_v with_o this_o and_o that_o business_n but_o remember_v mary_n choice_n who_o choose_v the_o better_a part_n in_o attend_v upon_o christ_n ministry_n i_o will_v have_v all_o rich_a man_n every_o day_n think_v of_o that_o text_n luk._n 12._o 20._o thou_o fool_n this_o night_n shall_v thy_o soul_n be_v take_v from_o thou_o and_o what_o then_o will_v become_v of_o all_o thy_o possession_n i_o confess_v god_n do_v not_o require_v this_o at_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o daily_a labourer_n or_o at_o the_o hand_n of_o servant_n that_o be_v not_o master_n of_o their_o own_o time_n and_o those_o that_o be_v very_o poor_a and_o be_v not_o able_a to_o set_v time_n apart_o for_o meditation_n but_o you_o may_v remember_v i_o give_v you_o a_o distinction_n between_o ejaculatory_a meditation_n and_o solemn_a meditation_n a_o poor_a man_n when_o he_o be_v at_o his_o work_n may_v have_v a_o short_a ejaculatory_a meditation_n though_o he_o have_v not_o time_n for_o this_o set_v and_o solemn_a meditation_n when_o he_o be_v at_o his_o work_n he_o may_v meditate_v upon_o the_o promise_n and_o of_o heaven_n and_o of_o hell_n and_o of_o death_n and_o judgement_n and_o the_o vanity_n of_o the_o world_n i_o have_v hear_v of_o a_o godly_a man_n be_v wont_a to_o say_v i_o thank_v god_n i_o can_v be_v in_o heaven_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o crowd_n of_o cheapside_n i_o can_v meditate_v on_o the_o rest_n i_o shall_v have_v in_o the_o other_o world_n 3._o the_o three_o direction_n be_v this_o the_o sabbath-day_n especial_o be_v a_o day_n wherein_o all_o sort_n of_o people_n be_v to_o busy_v themselves_o in_o this_o excellent_a work_n of_o divine_a meditation_n this_o be_v a_o day_n wherein_o the_o labourer_n cease_v from_o his_o work_n the_o ploughman_n yoke_n be_v take_v off_o and_o the_o labouring-man_n and_o the_o serve_a man_n have_v their_o rest_n therefore_o it_o concern_v all_o of_o we_o to_o spend_v some_o time_n every_o sabbath-day_n in_o meditation_n to_o meditate_v of_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n or_o redemption_n for_o the_o lordsday_n be_v so_o call_v because_o christ_n rise_v on_o that_o day_n and_o christ_n set_v apart_o that_o day_n in_o memory_n of_o his_o resurrection_n in_o memory_n of_o his_o redemption_n therefore_o this_o be_v thy_o work_n oh_o christian_n not_o only_o to_o come_v to_o the_o public_a ordinance_n not_o only_o to_o pray_v in_o thy_o family_n but_o to_o set_v some_o time_n apart_o for_o divine_a meditation_n and_o the_o lord_n forgive_v we_o this_o sin_n that_o we_o have_v omit_v this_o duty_n so_o long_o oh_o that_o i_o can_v be_v god_n instrument_n that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o resurrection_n of_o it_o that_o you_o will_v make_v conscience_n of_o it_o every_o sabbath-day_n as_o you_o make_v conscience_n of_o attend_v upon_o public_a and_o private_a duty_n so_o you_o will_v put_v this_o as_o one_o of_o your_o sabbath-day_n duty_n for_o it_o be_v the_o very_a quintessence_n the_o life_n and_o soul_n of_o all_o duty_n the_o sabbath-day_n be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o eternal_a sabbath_n which_o we_o shall_v keep_v for_o ever_o in_o heaven_n and_o shall_v not_o i_o think_v of_o my_o eternal_a sabbath_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n shall_v not_o i_o be_v much_o in_o heaven_n when_o i_o be_o keep_v a_o rest_n upon_o earth_n that_o represent_v my_o eternal_a rest_n in_o heaven_n let_v we_o upon_o our_o day_n of_o rest_n meditate_v much_o upon_o our_o eternal_a rest_n oh_o let_v we_o upon_o our_o sabbath-day_n meditate_v upon_o the_o everlasting_a sabbath_n which_o we_o shall_v keep_v with_o god_n almighty_a the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n for_o ever_o in_o heaven_n 4._o and_o last_o direction_n be_v this_o that_o sacrament-day_n be_v especial_o to_o be_v meditating-day_n to_o be_v set_v apart_o for_o this_o great_a work_n of_o divine_a meditation_n it_o be_v the_o great_a end_n why_o christ_n have_v appoint_v the_o sacrament_n to_o show_v forth_o the_o lords-death_n till_o he_o come_v and_o say_v christ_n do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n make_v we_o worthy_a receiver_n of_o the_o sacrament_n preparation_n before_o we_o come_v and_o meditation_n when_o we_o be_v come_v and_o though_o thy_o preparation_n be_v never_o so_o serious_a yet_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o act_v aright_o in_o thy_o meditation_n as_o well_o as_o thou_o have_v do_v in_o thy_o preparation_n thou_o may_v lose_v the_o benefit_n of_o the_o sacrament_n now_o if_o any_o shall_v ask_v i_o what_o be_v those_o thing_n you_o will_v have_v we_o to_o meditate_v of_o when_o we_o be_v come_v unto_o the_o sacrament_n or_o when_o we_o be_v at_o the_o sacrament_n there_o be_v twelve_o meditation_n which_o ought_v to_o take_v up_o our_o sacramental-time_n which_o i_o call_v twelve_o common-place-head_n i_o do_v not_o say_v we_o can_v meditate_v upon_o all_o of_o they_o at_o one_o sacrament_n but_o my_o design_n be_v to_o give_v you_o matter_n sufficient_a that_o you_o may_v sometime_o meditate_v of_o one_o sometime_o of_o another_o i_o will_v but_o name_v they_o 1._o you_o must_v meditate_v of_o the_o great_a and_o wonderful_a love_n of_o god_n the_o father_n in_o give_v christ_n not_o only_o to_o die_v for_o we_o upon_o the_o cross_n but_o in_o give_v he_o to_o be_v our_o food_n at_o the_o sacrament_n there_o be_v nothing_o move_v god_n to_o give_v christ_n but_o pure_a love_n and_o great_a love_n for_o god_n so_o love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n so_o how_o so_o infinite_o so_o inexpressible_o the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o bestow_v christ_n be_v so_o great_a that_o the_o angel_n desire_v to_o look_v into_o it_o and_o you_o that_o be_v not_o affect_v with_o this_o love_n i_o fear_v you_o have_v little_a share_n in_o it_o that_o be_v enough_o to_o take_v up_o one_o sacrament_n 2._o you_o be_v to_o meditate_v at_o the_o sacrament_n not_o only_o of_o the_o love_n of_o the_o father_n in_o give_v of_o his_o son_n but_o of_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n in_o give_v himself_o ephes._n 5._o 2._o who_o love_v we_o and_o have_v give_v himself_o for_o we_o a_o offering_n and_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n for_o a_o sweet_a smell_a savour_n as_o god_n give_v christ_n so_o christ_n give_v himself_o as_o god_n give_v himself_o as_o man_n the_o godhead_n infuse_v this_o will_n into_o the_o manhood_n that_o christ_n willing_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n joh._n 10._o 17_o 18._o therefore_o do_v my_o father_n love_v i_o because_o i_o lay_v down_o my_o life_n that_o i_o may_v take_v it_o up_o again_o no_o man_n take_v it_o from_o i_o but_o i_o lay_v it_o down_o of_o myself_o i_o have_v power_n to_o lay_v it_o down_o and_o i_o have_v power_n to_o take_v it_o up_o this_o commandment_n have_v i_o receive_v of_o my_o father_n now_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n in_o give_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o curse_n for_o we_o be_v a_o love_n that_o pass_v knowledge_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o love_n that_o we_o must_v study_v to_o know_v it_o be_v a_o riddle_n but_o such_o a_o riddle_n as_o the_o apostle_n himself_o do_v in_o so_o many_o express_a word_n declare_v unto_o we_o ephes._n 3._o 19_o that_o we_o may_v be_v able_a to_o comprehend_v with_o all_o saint_n what_o be_v the_o breadth_n and_o length_n and_o depth_n and_o height_n and_o to_o know_v the_o love_n of_o christ_n which_o pass_v knowledge_n great_a be_v the_o love_n of_o christ_n which_o pass_v knowledge_n great_a be_v the_o love_n of_o christ_n in_o die_v for_o we_o and_o be_v make_v sin_n for_o we_o and_o be_v make_v a_o curse_n for_o we_o 3._o we_o must_v meditate_v of_o the_o heinousness_n of_o sin_n when_o we_o be_v all_o fall_v in_o adam_n we_o be_v ingulph_v into_o such_o a_o bottomless_a abyss_n of_o misery_n that_o none_o but_o the_o blood_n of_o a_o god_n can_v deliver_v we_o for_o there_o be_v a_o infinite_a breach_n by_o sin_n between_o god_n and_o we_o and_o this_o breach_n can_v never_o be_v make_v up_o but_o by_o the_o blood_n of_o god_n that_o be_v a_o rare_a meditation_n at_o the_o sacrament_n to_o meditate_v of_o the_o heinousness_n of_o sin_n when_o you_o see_v the_o bread_n break_v it_o be_v sin_n that_o cause_v christ_n body_n to_o be_v break_v and_o when_o you_o see_v the_o wine_n pour_v out_o it_o be_v sin_n cause_v christ_n blood_n to_o be_v pour_v out_o it_o be_v sin_n that_o cause_v christ_n to_o suffer_v so_o much_o 4._o you_o must_v meditate_v of_o the_o excellency_n of_o this_o sacramental_a feast_n for_o the_o sacrament_n be_v a_o commemorative_n sacrifice_n it_o be_v a_o commemoration_n of_o that_o bless_a sacrifice_n that_o be_v offer_v on_o the_o cross_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o it_o be_v a_o obsignation_n
