be_v true_a indeed_o that_o the_o part_n which_o our_o lord_n have_v in_o the_o institution_n of_o his_o holy_a supper_n viz._n the_o blessing_n of_o bread_n and_o break_v it_o and_o take_v wine_n and_o give_v thanks_o and_o distribute_v both_o belong_v only_o to_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n because_o these_o be_v all_o special_a act_n and_o exercise_n of_o the_o ministerial_a function_n and_o as_o such_o have_v be_v always_o reserve_v to_o they_o alone_o but_o the_o receive_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n whe●_n break_v bless_a and_o offer_v to_o we_o be_v the_o common_a dut●_n of_o all_o christian_n as_o well_o people_n as_o minister_n three_o the_o end_n for_o which_o this_o be_v command_v to_o be_v do_v in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o or_o rather_o in_o commemoration_n of_o i_o for_o so_o the_o word_n which_o we_o here_o translate_v remembrance_n sometime_o signify_v and_o this_o indeed_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o most_o proper_a signification_n of_o it_o in_o this_o place_n for_o commemoration_n be_v a_o solemn_a act_n of_o remembrance_n and_o such_o a_o one_o no_o doubt_n our_o saviour_n here_o expect_v from_o we_o we_o be_v always_o bind_v habitual_o to_o remember_v he_o but_o this_o his_o supper_n be_v particular_o design_v to_o excite_v in_o our_o soul_n a_o present_a and_o actual_a remembrance_n of_o he_o of_o he_o that_o be_v of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o his_o body_n that_o be_v break_v and_o his_o blood_n which_o be_v shed_v for_o we_o for_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n which_o be_v here_o administer_v to_o we_o be_v appoint_v by_o he_o as_o sign_n and_o representation_n of_o his_o flesh_n and_o blood_n as_o he_o himself_o tell_v we_o at_o his_o institution_n of_o this_o holy_a supper_n this_o say_v he_o speak_v of_o the_o bread_n be_v my_o body_n which_o be_v give_v for_o you_o that_o be_v this_o be_v a_o sign_n or_o representation_n of_o my_o body_n which_o shall_v very_o sudden_o be_v offer_v up_o upon_o the_o

for_o many_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v the_o wine_n which_o you_o now_o see_v in_o this_o cup_n and_o which_o i_o command_v you_o all_o to_o drink_v of_o be_v a_o sign_n or_o representation_n of_o

bread_n and_o drink_v of_o this_o cup_n we_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o put_v both_o part_n of_o our_o lord_n commandment_n together_o and_o to_o fulfil_v both_o by_o do_v it_o in_o remembrance_n of_o his_o body_n that_o be_v give_v and_o his_o blood_n that_o be_v shed_v for_o we_o and_o such_o a_o remembrance_n as_o this_o necessary_o imply_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o a_o acknowledgement_n of_o christ_n for_o our_o saviour_n and_o redeemer_n for_o what_o else_o be_v it_o to_o commemorate_v his_o die_n for_o we_o but_o to_o declare_v that_o we_o be_v sensible_a that_o our_o peace_n be_v make_v with_o god_n through_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o cross_n and_o that_o we_o who_o before_o be_v all_o under_o sin_n and_o liable_a to_o wrath_n alien_n from_o and_o enemy_n to_o god_n shall_v now_o not_o have_v our_o trespass_n impute_v to_o we_o but_o be_v save_v from_o wrath_n through_o christ_n and_o in_o the_o body_n of_o his_o flesh_n through_o death_n be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n to_o declare_v i_o say_v and_o show_n both_o to_o god_n and_o man_n that_o our_o hope_n be_v only_o in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n who_o have_v now_o appear_v to_o put_v away_o sin_n by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o himself_o and_o in_o who_o alone_o we_o have_v redemption_n through_o his_o blood_n even_a forgiveness_n of_o sin_n this_o you_o see_v be_v what_o the_o scripture_n mean_v by_o christ_n body_n be_v break_v and_o his_o blood_n shed_v for_o we_o and_o therefore_o all_o christian_n who_o sincere_o remember_v those_o must_v sincere_o acknowledge_v this_o second_o a_o acknowledgement_n of_o christ_n for_o our_o lord_n and_o master_n for_o beside_o that_o by_o submit_v to_o his_o rite_n and_o institution_n we_o plain_o declare_v ourselves_o his_o disciple_n beside_o that_o by_o acknowledge_v of_o and_o partake_v in_o his_o sacrifice_n we_o do_v according_a to_o the_o sense_n of_o all_o nation_n own_o ourselves_o member_n of_o his_o church_n beside_o this_o i_o say_v by_o acknowledge_v christ_n die_v for_o we_o we_o do_v manifest_o acknowledge_v our_o obligation_n both_o to_o love_v and_o obey_v he_o to_o love_v he_o who_o have_v so_o love_v we_o as_o to_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o we_o to_o obey_v he_o who_o purchase_n we_o be_v who_o have_v buy_v we_o with_o a_o price_n even_o the_o inestimable_a price_n of_o his_o blood_n and_o have_v therefore_o a_o right_a to_o we_o as_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o as_o a_o peculiar_a people_n to_o himself_o and_o this_o the_o primitive_a christian_n be_v so_o sensible_a of_o that_o they_o look_v upon_o every_o receive_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n to_o be_v a_o new_a tie_n and_o obligation_n a_o new_a vow_n and_o dedication_n of_o themselves_o to_o christ_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o word_n sacrament_n which_o signify_v among_o the_o roman_n that_o oath_n of_o fidelity_n which_o their_o soldier_n take_v be_v give_v as_o a_o name_n to_o the_o lord_n supper_n because_o christian_n be_v suppose_v to_o bind_v themselves_o there_o as_o it_o be_v by_o a_o oath_n to_o christ_n service_n the_o end_n for_o which_o our_o bless_a lord_n institute_v this_o holy_a supper_n seem_v to_o have_v be_v these_o three_o first_o his_o father_n and_o his_o own_o glory_n which_o can_v no_o way_n better_o be_v illustrate_v and_o extol_v than_o by_o make_v all_o christian_n whatsoever_o join_v in_o ascribe_v their_o redemption_n and_o salvation_n to_o they_o for_o this_o be_v at_o once_o to_o own_o both_o their_o power_n and_o wisdom_n and_o goodness_n which_o be_v so_o eminent_o display_v in_o these_o great_a work_n and_o likewise_o their_o sovereignty_n and_o dominion_n over_o we_o which_o be_v the_o natural_a effect_n of_o they_o second_o the_o preserve_v the_o unity_n of_o his_o church_n towards_o which_o nothing_o can_v contribute_v more_o than_o the_o frequent_a meeting_n together_o of_o its_o member_n to_o acknowledge_v one_o hope_n of_o their_o call_n one_o lord_n one_o faith_n one_o baptism_n one_o god_n and_o father_n of_o all_o above_o all_o through_o all_o and_o in_o they_o all_o and_o this_o be_v most_o effectual_o acknowledge_v by_o our_o be_v all_o partaker_n of_o that_o one_o bread_n for_o thus_o as_o st._n paul_n teach_v we_o be_v many_o be_v one_o bread_n and_o one_o body_n and_o likewise_o their_o meeting_n to_o commemorate_v the_o noble_a instance_n of_o

three_o the_o good_a and_o edification_n of_o every_o particular_a christian_a and_o this_o end_n will_v appear_v to_o be_v admirable_o well_o serve_v this_o way_n if_o we_o will_v give_v ourselves_o leave_v to_o reflect_v a_o little_a on_o the_o benefit_n which_o every_o christian_a be_v make_v partaker_n of_o by_o receive_v this_o holy_a supper_n and_o first_o if_o we_o consider_v this_o holy_a supper_n only_o as_o a_o commemorative_n sign_n or_o sign_n to_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o christ_n die_v for_o we_o yet_o even_o thus_o it_o will_v prove_v of_o vast_a advantage_n to_o we_o for_o this_o will_v natural_o tend_v to_o inflame_v our_o love_n and_o exalt_v our_o gratitude_n towards_o he_o to_o confirm_v our_o faith_n and_o strengthen_v our_o hope_n in_o he_o and_o to_o fix_v and_o establish_v our_o purpose_n of_o obedience_n to_o he_o all_o this_o i_o say_v will_v be_v the_o natural_a result_n even_o of_o a_o bare_a contemplation_n or_o remembrance_n of_o christ_n have_v free_o give_v up_o himself_o to_o death_n even_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n for_o we_o and_o of_o his_o have_v thereby_o procure_v remission_n of_o all_o our_o sin_n and_o a_o promise_n of_o eternal_a life_n and_o happiness_n to_o all_o those_o that_o obey_v he_o but_o second_o if_o we_o consider_v it_o as_o it_o be_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v as_o it_o be_v to_o all_o faithful_a christian_n a_o actual_a participation_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n death_n and_o passion_n viz._n of_o remission_n of_o sin_n of_o the_o hope_n of_o eternal_a happiness_n upon_o our_o obedience_n and_o of_o the_o grace_n
of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n to_o teach_v and_o enable_v we_o to_o obey_v we_o shall_v be_v abundant_o convince_v of_o the_o advantage_n and_o benefit_n of_o it_o to_o we_o by_o this_o mean_n we_o have_v the_o same_o strength_n and_o nourishment_n convey_v unto_o our_o soul_n which_o the_o outward_a symbol_n bread_n and_o wine_n convey_v to_o our_o body_n we_o be_v make_v one_o with_o christ_n and_o christ_n with_o we_o and_o nothing_o but_o our_o own_o wilful_a disobedience_n shall_v be_v ever_o able_a to_o part_v we_o more_o from_o he_o this_o be_v a_o true_a and_o faithful_a account_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n which_o i_o think_v may_v be_v fair_o sum_v up_o in_o these_o few_o and_o plain_a word_n it_o be_v a_o foederal_n feast_n or_o feast_n of_o covenant_n between_o god_n and_o man_n institute_v by_o christ_n himself_o and_o perpetual_o to_o be_v observe_v by_o all_o christian_n where_o by_o partake_v of_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o commemoration_n of_o christ_n body_n give_v and_o his_o blood_n shed_v for_o they_o they_o on_o their_o part_n acknowledge_v christ_n for_o their_o saviour_n and_o redeemer_n lord_n and_o master_n and_o god_n on_o his_o part_n grant_n and_o confirm_v to_o they_o under_o the_o symbol_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n christ_n jesus_n that_o be_v all_o the_o bless_a effect_n of_o his_o body_n break_v and_o his_o blood_n shed_v viz._n pardon_v of_o past_a sin_n promise_v of_o eternal_a happiness_n upon_o future_a obedience_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o grace_n to_o direct_v and_o enable_v they_o to_o

i_o think_v our_o obligation_n to_o receive_v this_o holy_a supper_n do_v abundant_o appear_v for_o first_o we_o have_v here_o a_o plain_a command_n so_o to_o do_v do_v this_o in_o nomembrance_n of_o

trifle_n with_o god_n our_o saviour_n and_o the_o world_n to_o call_v ourselves_o christian_n and_o yet_o live_v in_o a_o wilful_a neglect_n of_o this_o plain_a command_n of_o christ_n why_o call_v you_o i_o lord_n lord_n say_v our_o saviour_n and_o do_v not_o the_o thing_n which_o i_o say_v to_o what_o purpose_n do_v you_o in_o word_n acknowledge_v i_o to_o be_v your_o master_n and_o yet_o when_o i_o call_v upon_o you_o to_o do_v this_o plain_o declare_v by_o your_o action_n that_o you_o do_v not_o regard_v i_o better_a have_v it_o be_v for_o you_o that_o you_o have_v never_o take_v

be_v more_o tolerable_a for_o tyre_n and_o sydon_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n than_o for_o you_o second_o this_o command_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v attend_v with_o a_o multitude_n of_o

first_o it_o be_v his_o die_a command_n that_o very_o same_o night_n in_o which_o he_o institute_v this_o holy_a supper_n be_v he_o betray_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o jew_n in_o order_n to_o be_v

will_v not_o do_v can_v he_o speak_v and_o shall_v not_o his_o last_o word_n be_v mind_v by_o we_o what_o answer_n do_v you_o think_v you_o shall_v have_v give_v he_o have_v you_o hear_v he_o speak_v in_o this_o manner_n to_o you_o my_o dear_a child_n who_o i_o love_v so_o well_o who_o misery_n i_o be_o so_o deep_o concern_v for_o who_o sin_n i_o be_o so_o very_o desirous_a to_o get_v a_o pardon_n
