sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n for_o see_v that_o it_o be_v thus_o set_v upright_o by_o jesus_n christ_n such_o a_o complete_a ordinance_n of_o god_n want_v nothing_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o grievous_a sin_n for_o any_o that_o shall_v lay_v hand_n upon_o it_o to_o alter_v it_o or_o to_o add_v any_o thing_n to_o it_o the_o popish_a church_n be_v guilty_a high_o of_o this_o sin_n and_o of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n for_o it_o how_o many_o ceremony_n have_v they_o defile_v it_o withal_o as_o by_o the_o cross_n namely_o which_o as_o it_o be_v in_o use_n in_o the_o popish_a church_n be_v as_o abominable_a a_o idol_n as_o ever_o be_v erect_v among_o they_o it_o be_v in_o some_o use_n among_o we_o after_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n but_o to_o we_o there_o be_v no_o idolatry_n in_o it_o at_o all_o and_o howsoever_o it_o be_v free_a and_o far_o from_o all_o idolatry_n among_o we_o yet_o sure_o if_o it_o have_v creep_v within_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n as_o it_o do_v creep_v within_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n i_o make_v no_o question_n but_o our_o state_n be_v religious_a and_o wise_a will_v have_v utter_o cast_v it_o out_o from_o the_o one_o sacrament_n aswell_o as_o from_o the_o other_o but_o i_o say_v they_o stain_v this_o sacrament_n by_o admit_v of_o the_o cross_n into_o the_o lord_n supper_n but_o that_o be_v not_o the_o worst_a they_o go_v further_o they_o maim_v this_o bless_a sacrament_n they_o make_v this_o communion_n but_o half_a a_o communion_n they_o deprive_v the_o people_n of_o the_o cup_n let_v they_o have_v the_o bread_n and_o much_o good_a may_v it_o do_v they_o but_o they_o shall_v have_v no_o wine_n but_o our_o saviour_n say_v eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n he_o give_v they_o bread_n and_o wine_n to_o eat_v and_o to_o drink_v and_o thus_o do_v he_o leave_v this_o ordinance_n to_o be_v observe_v by_o they_o now_o if_o the_o papist_n shall_v come_v and_o deprive_v the_o people_n of_o one_o half_a of_o this_o communion_n the_o servant_n show_v himself_o to_o be_v envious_a where_o the_o lord_n have_v show_v himself_o bountiful_a the_o lord_n have_v give_v they_o both_o kind_n and_o the_o papist_n give_v they_o but_o one_o nay_o what_o will_v you_o say_v if_o they_o overthrow_v this_o sacrament_n utter_o sure_o they_o do_v for_o they_o turn_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o sacrament_n into_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o with_o they_o this_o sacrament_n be_v a_o sacrifice_n it_o be_v a_o sacrament_n in_o the_o institution_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n but_o they_o will_v have_v it_o a_o propitiatory_a sacrifice_n for_o quick_a and_o dead_a this_o be_v to_o overthrow_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o sacrament_n they_o spoil_v it_o also_o with_o horrible_a idolatry_n another_o way_n in_o that_o they_o keep_v it_o but_o in_o one_o kind_n that_o be_v in_o the_o bread_n and_o that_o very_a element_n of_o bread_n that_o christ_n have_v separate_v to_o holy_a use_n they_o have_v turn_v into_o a_o profane_a and_o gross_a idol_n they_o hold_v it_o very_o to_o be_v a_o god_n and_o if_o this_o be_v not_o to_o overthrow_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o sacrament_n i_o

of_o the_o visibility_n of_o it_o but_o because_o always_o in_o such_o congregation_n there_o be_v by_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n some_o true_a believer_n therefore_o they_o be_v true_a church_n

by_o the_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a now_o this_o you_o must_v understand_v that_o the_o power_n whereby_o christ_n raise_v himself_o from_o death_n be_v in_o he_o while_o he_o be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o death_n and_o while_o christ_n lie_v in_o the_o grave_n then_o be_v this_o power_n in_o he_o to_o raise_v up_o himself_o now_o by_o this_o power_n he_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n to_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o it_o be_v a_o mighty_a declaration_n of_o he_o to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o christ_n declare_v himself_o mighty_o to_o be_v the_o lord_n even_o in_o the_o state_n of_o his_o death_n luke_n 23.42_o the_o thief_n he_o give_v testimony_n to_o this_o truth_n our_o saviour_n be_v upon_o the_o cross_n he_o say_v o_o lord_n

they_o this_o man_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o centurion_n for_o aught_o we_o know_v do_v never_o know_v nor_o take_v notice_n that_o this_o man_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n till_o he_o come_v

this_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o the_o 51._o and_o 52._o verse_n those_o fearful_a accident_n that_o be_v mention_v there_o as_o the_o veil_n rent_v the_o rock_n cleave_v asunder_o the_o

to_o be_v the_o lord_n even_o in_o his_o death_n that_o the_o dead_a and_o insensible_a creature_n be_v sensible_a of_o it_o the_o earth_n the_o stone_n and_o grave_n discern_v it_o and_o the_o body_n of_o the_o saint_n that_o be_v dead_a discern_v it_o and_o do_v acknowledge_v it_o in_o their_o kind_n what_o a_o fearful_a upbraid_v to_o the_o jew_n be_v this_o that_o either_o they_o do_v not_o

you_o see_v the_o doctrine_n be_v clear_o prove_v by_o scripture_n that_o christ_n jesus_n howsoever_o he_o be_v shameful_o crucify_v and_o put_v to_o a_o most_o cruel_a and_o ignominious_a death_n as_o ever_o any_o man_n can_v be_v putunto_o yet_o notwithstanding_o even_o in_o that_o state_n of_o his_o death_n he_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o lord_n the_o glorious_a lord_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n the_o reason_n of_o the_o doctrine_n be_v these_o reason_n 1_o the_o first_o be_v this_o he_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o lord_n over_o his_o church_n the_o first_o reason_n i_o say_v be_v draw_v from_o his_o church_n christ_n jesus_n in_o his_o death_n be_v lord_n over_o his_o church_n and_o so_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v for_o then_o indeed_o by_o his_o death_n he_o do_v purchase_v and_o redeem_v his_o church_n he_o buy_v his_o church_n then_o the_o faithful_a be_v his_o own_o by_o actual_a redemption_n you_o know_v that_o those_o thing_n which_o a_o man_n purchase_n and_o buy_v at_o a_o dear_a rate_n and_o give_v for_o they_o as_o much_o as_o they_o be_v worth_a they_o be_v his_o own_o by_o a_o true_a title_n if_o so_o be_v that_o any_o man_n do_v redeem_v a_o man_n out_o of_o the_o galley_n he_o be_v true_o his_o lord_n in_o the_o right_a kind_n of_o own_v and_o the_o other_o be_v his_o servant_n christ_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o cross_n than_o do_v he_o purchase_v and_o buy_v his_o church_n by_o his_o blood_n and_o then_o therein_o he_o show_v himself_o in_o a_o most_o right_a sense_n to_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o his_o church_n then_o be_v they_o his_o own_o by_o actual_a redemption_n and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o saint_n do_v acknowledge_v revel_v 5.9_o oh_o worthy_a art_n thou_o to_o take_v the_o book_n and_o to_o open_v the_o seal_n thereof_o and_o why_o be_v he_o worthy_a more_o than_o any_o other_o because_o thou_o be_v kill_v and_o have_v redeem_v we_o to_o god_n by_o thy_o blood_n and_o therefore_o thou_o have_v a_o true_a interest_n into_o we_o and_o thou_o be_v sure_o our_o lord_n and_o worthy_a be_v thou_o so_o to_o be_v acknowledge_v and_o our_o saviour_n give_v some_o intimation_n of_o it_o in_o the_o 18._o of_o john_n if_o i_o be_v lift_v up_o from_o the_o earth_n say_v our_o saviour_n i_o will_v draw_v all_o man_n unto_o i_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o lift_v up_o that_o be_v to_o say_v his_o crucify_a if_o i_o be_v crucify_v i_o will_v draw_v all_o man_n after_o i_o the_o reach_n of_o the_o place_n be_v this_o that_o christ_n by_o his_o crucify_a and_o his_o death_n draw_v all_o man_n and_o gather_v all_o his_o church_n to_o himself_o he_o purchase_v they_o and_o make_v they_o his_o own_o by_o redemption_n that_o he_o may_v be_v acknowledge_v their_o lord_n and_o they_o his_o people_n and_o servant_n and_o sure_o as_o christ_n do_v gather_v all_o believer_n from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n by_o the_o power_n of_o his_o word_n and_o death_n and_o bless_a spirit_n so_o special_o in_o the_o actual_a performance_n of_o his_o suffering_n then_o chief_o do_v he_o draw_v all_o man_n unto_o he_o for_o then_o his_o lordship_n after_o a_o special_a manner_n be_v advance_v and_o the_o territory_n of_o his_o kingdom_n be_v much_o enlarge_v and_o now_o no_o long_o be_v it_o to_o be_v bind_v and_o to_o be_v contain_v within_o the_o border_n of_o judea_n but_o to_o have_v dominion_n from_o sea_n to_o sea_n unto_o the_o world_n end_n oh_o what_o a_o mighty_a lord_n do_v he_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v even_o in_o his_o death_n reason_n 2_o second_o as_o he_o be_v lord_n over_o the_o church_n so_o he_o be_v and_o so_o he_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v even_o a_o lord_n over_o his_o enemy_n what_o be_v the_o great_a honour_n of_o a_o lord_n or_o whereby_o do_v a_o man_n come_v to_o be_v most_o just_o and_o right_o call_v lord_n but_o by_o subdue_a his_o enemy_n under_o he_o psal_n 110._o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o my_o
