but_o in_o use_n so_o that_o which_o be_v but_o now_o a_o common_a bread_n become_v as_o far_o different_a as_o heaven_n be_v from_o earth_n be_v alter_v in_o its_o use_n for_o instance_n the_o wax_n whereby_o the_o king_n pass_v over_o a_o inheritance_n to_o we_o and_o by_o which_o conveyance_n of_o our_o estate_n be_v make_v that_o wax_n be_v but_o as_o another_o piece_n of_o wax_n differ_v nothing_o from_o that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o shop_n till_o the_o king_n have_v stamp_v it_o with_o his_o seal_n but_o be_v once_o seal_v one_o will_v not_o give_v it_o for_o all_o the_o wax_n in_o the_o kingdom_n for_o now_o it_o serve_v to_o another_o use_n so_o be_v it_o here_o in_o these_o element_n but_o still_o know_v the_o difference_n be_v not_o in_o the_o matter_n or_o substance_n but_o in_o the_o use_n and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o this_o bless_a bread_n and_o wine_n be_v term_v a_o communion_n namely_o because_o it_o be_v a_o instrument_n whereby_o christ_n inflate_v i_o into_o himself_o and_o whereby_o i_o 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 drink_v that_o cup_n unworthy_o it_o be_v a_o dangerous_a thing_n a_o great_a sin_n to_o eat_v and_o drink_v at_o the_o lord_n table_n in_o a_o unworthy_a manner_n 2._o a_o punishment_n he_o eat_v and_o drink_v damnation_n or_o judgement_n unto_o himself_o so_o that_o now_o what_o be_v ordain_v to_o life_n and_o appoint_v to_o be_v a_o seal_n and_o confirmation_n of_o god_n love_n and_o favour_n be_v now_o change_v and_o become_v a_o seal_n and_o confirmation_n of_o god_n anger_n and_o indignation_n the_o unworthy_a receive_n of_o it_o make_v it_o prove_v clean_o contrary_a to_o what_o it_o be_v intend_v 3._o a_o reason_n because_o he_o discern_v not_o the_o lord_n body_n but_o take_v they_o as_o ordinary_a thing_n deem_v the_o element_n not_o different_a from_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n which_o we_o have_v at_o our_o table_n not_o know_v that_o they_o be_v the_o dish_n wherein_o christ_n be_v serve_v in_o unto_o we_o that_o by_o these_o the_o great_a gift_n be_v give_v we_o and_o nourishment_n convey_v for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o our_o spiritual_a life_n this_o life_n be_v give_v we_o in_o baptism_n but_o in_o and_o by_o these_o sign_n be_v convey_v spiritual_a nourishment_n for_o the_o continuance_n and_o maintenance_n of_o it_o for_o the_o strengthen_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o make_v we_o daily_o strong_a and_o strong_a to_o fight_v the_o lord_n battle_n 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 over_o head_n without_o any_o consideration_n we_o receive_v they_o unworthy_o and_o a_o fearful_a indignity_n be_v offer_v unto_o christ_n which_o he_o will_v certain_o revenge_v i_o will_v then_o 1._o show_v in_o general_n what_o it_o be_v to_o eat_v worthy_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 avoid_v and_o what_o the_o particular_n be_v wherein_o the_o sin_n consist_v 1._o concern_v the_o first_o what_o it_o be_v to_o eat_v unworthy_o obj._n and_o here_o may_v some_o say_v be_v there_o 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 〈◊〉_d 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 we_o be_v unworthy_a to_o present_v they_o to_o he_o 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 if_o we_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o present_v bodily_a food_n unto_o he_o can_v we_o be_v worthy_a to_o receive_v spiritual_a food_n from_o he_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
