out_o to_o wash_v away_o sin_n but_o none_o either_o more_o usual_a or_o significant_a than_o this_o to_o remit_v that_o be_v to_o let_v go_v or_o pass_v by_o or_o to_o loose_a sin_n it_o do_v most_o pithy_o unfold_v both_o the_o nature_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o forgiveness_n sin_n have_v a_o double_a respect_n first_o to_o god_n himself_o second_o to_o his_o law_n i_o grant_v that_o there_o be_v but_o little_a difference_n in_o the_o thing_n itself_o for_o that_o which_o be_v do_v against_o god_n be_v do_v against_o his_o law_n and_o that_o which_o be_v do_v against_o god_n law_n be_v do_v against_o god_n himself_o but_o yet_o for_o doctrine_n sake_n we_o distinguish_v they_o so_o in_o our_o consideration_n first_o sin_n have_v respect_n to_o god_n himself_o for_o if_o there_o be_v no_o law_n make_v to_o forbid_v and_o punish_v misdemenour_n do_v against_o the_o king_n person_n yet_o if_o a_o subject_n do_v aught_o against_o he_o he_o be_v a_o offendor_n and_o just_o punishable_a even_o because_o the_o one_o be_v a_o subject_n and_o the_o other_o a_o king_n so_o if_o god_n have_v make_v no_o law_n at_o all_o against_o sin_n yet_o if_o we_o do_v any_o thing_n against_o god_n we_o be_v sinner_n and_o just_o liable_a to_o god_n wrath_n and_o sentence_n of_o his_o displeasure_n even_o because_o he_o be_v god_n sin_n be_v a_o wrong_n to_o god_n for_o he_o be_v our_o creator_n and_o we_o his_o workmanship_n if_o we_o shall_v do_v he_o his_o right_n we_o shall_v give_v he_o all_o our_o whole_a service_n then_o when_o we_o sin_n we_o fail_v of_o that_o and_o so_o we_o wrong_v god_n now_o when_o god_n forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n he_o remit_v or_o put_v up_o our_o wrong_n so_o sin_n be_v a_o dishonour_n to_o god_n he_o be_v perfect_o holy_a and_o have_v make_v we_o holy_a

the_o sacrament_n be_v a_o notable_a mean_n to_o confirm_v cur_n faith_n that_o we_o have_v need_v to_o be_v confirm_v in_o our_o faith_n every_o day_n be_v certain_a for_o we_o know_v this_o by_o

the_o grow_a hand_n we_o know_v our_o weak_a and_o crazy_a body_n because_o they_o be_v weak_a must_v have_v a_o continual_a supply_n of_o bodily_a food_n so_o our_o weak_a soul_n because_o we_o be_v

therefore_o the_o strength_n of_o it_o must_v be_v continual_o relieve_v and_o support_v by_o a_o continual_a supply_n of_o spiritual_a food_n which_o be_v minister_v unto_o we_o especial_o in_o the_o

at_o any_o time_n forget_v we_o this_o shall_v and_o must_v persuade_v we_o to_o make_v the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n our_o continual_a remembrance_n reason_n 2_o second_o god_n always_o

man_n and_o woman_n that_o so_o come_v to_o the_o lord_n table_n alas_o they_o know_v not_o that_o they_o do_v evil_a they_o know_v not_o that_o they_o profane_v the_o sacrament_n in_o that_o they_o do_v not_o receive_v the_o holy_a thing_n of_o the_o sacrament_n that_o be_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n they_o know_v not_o that_o they_o make_v themselves_o guilty_a of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o that_o they_o receive_v not_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n by_o faith_n christ_n he_o be_v tender_v unto_o they_o but_o they_o know_v not_o that_o they_o do_v eat_v their_o own_o

they_o unto_o they_o offer_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o fool_n they_o know_v not_o that_o they_o do_v evil_a i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o comparison_n if_o so_o be_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v go_v into_o the_o market_n to_o fetch_v such_o and_o such_o commodity_n that_o he_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o he_o make_v himself_o ready_a and_o go_v forth_o and_o make_v full_a account_n to_o bring_v they_o home_o with_o he_o but_o the_o foolish_a man_n never_o consider_v the_o price_n of_o these_o thing_n what_o they_o will_v cost_v he_o and_o so_o he_o take_v no_o money_n to_o pay_v for_o they_o when_o as_o the_o price_n be_v the_o chief_a thing_n to_o be_v respect_v in_o that_o he_o go_v about_o but_o he_o never_o consider_v that_o be_v not_o this_o a_o ridiculous_a man_n be_v not_o that_o man_n like_o to_o come_v home_o as_o foolish_a and_o as_o empty_a as_o he_o go_v out_o it_o be_v so_o with_o many_o of_o our_o communicant_n many_o here_o come_v to_o the_o lord_n table_n for_o what_o forsooth_o to_o furnish_v themselves_o with_o such_o and_o such_o commodity_n for_o to_o receive_v the_o holy_a sacrament_n the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n for_o to_o receive_v remission_n of_o sin_n and_o grace_n and_o comfort_n and_o such_o like_a these_o they_o come_v to_o receive_v i_o but_o they_o do_v not_o consider_v the_o price_n of_o these_o thing_n what_o be_v that_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o these_o thing_n cost_n christ_n jesus_n his_o most_o precious_a blood_n they_o do_v not_o bring_v faith_n in_o their_o heart_n whereby_o to_o purchase_v and_o get_v these_o thing_n for_o themselves_o therefore_o such_o man_n go_v away_o as_o foolish_a and_o ridiculous_a and_o as_o empty_a of_o grace_n as_o ever_o they_o be_v before_o yea_o they_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o damnable_a because_o they_o come_v thus_o unfurnished_v it_o be_v with_o many_o of_o we_o as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o jew_n that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o 2._o to_o the_o corinthian_n chap._n 3._o vers_fw-la 14_o 15._o their_o mind_n be_v harden_v for_o unto_o this_o day_n remain_v the_o same_o cover_v untaken_v away_o in_o the_o read_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n which_o veil_n in_o christ_n be_v put_v away_o but_o even_o unto_o this_o day_n when_o moses_n be_v read_v the_o veil_n be_v lay_v over_o their_o heart_n they_o can_v see_v the_o outward_a thing_n the_o sacrifice_n the_o ceremony_n and_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v i_o but_o say_v the_o apostle_n they_o can_v not_o look_v unto_o the_o end_n they_o can_v not_o look_v unto_o the_o substance_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v tender_v unto_o they_o in_o this_o outward_a shadow_n that_o be_v to_o say_v they_o can_v not_o look_v upon_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o all_o no_o say_v the_o apostle_n there_o be_v a_o veil_n over_o their_o heart_n and_o to_o this_o day_n they_o continue_v in_o their_o hardness_n so_o i_o say_v it_o be_v with_o many_o among_o we_o we_o come_v here_o unto_o the_o lord_n table_n we_o can_v see_v these_o outward_a thing_n well_o enough_o the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n i_o but_o yet_o many_o of_o we_o do_v not_o look_v to_o the_o end_n of_o these_o thing_n to_o the_o substance_n that_o be_v tender_v unto_o we_o in_o these_o holy_a mystery_n namely_o to_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n we_o do_v not_o discern_v the_o lord_n body_n there_o be_v a_o veil_n over_o the_o heart_n of_o many_o of_o we_o a_o cover_n of_o blindness_n over_o the_o heart_n of_o many_o of_o we_o therefore_o though_o we_o do_v come_v often_o this_o month_n and_o the_o next_o month_n yet_o still_o we_o continue_v in_o the_o hardness_n of_o our_o heart_n we_o be_v never_o the_o better_a till_o this_o veil_n be_v take_v away_o as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o jew_n till_o this_o veil_n be_v take_v away_o by_o christ_n till_o christ_n jesus_n do_v take_v away_o this_o veil_n of_o blindness_n and_o show_v they_o his_o death_n and_o present_v his_o death_n unto_o they_o and_o cause_v they_o to_o look_v upon_o he_o who_o they_o have_v pierce_v till_o such_o time_n that_o this_o veil_n be_v take_v away_o and_o that_o he_o present_v his_o death_n to_o their_o heart_n by_o his_o spirit_n they_o shall_v never_o be_v the_o better_a for_o it_o they_o do_v continue_v in_o their_o hardness_n and_o they_o shall_v continue_v in_o their_o hardness_n for_o ever_o therefore_o belove_v let_v we_o not_o deceive_v ourselves_o to_o think_v that_o we_o be_v more_o holy_a and_o religious_a receiver_n than_o indeed_o we_o be_v let_v we_o try_v ourselves_o when_o we_o come_v to_o the_o lord_n table_n examine_v ourselves_o upon_o this_o point_n what_o apprehension_n we_o have_v of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n what_o portion_n we_o have_v in_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o according_o as_o thou_o find_v some_o measure_n of_o this_o grace_n within_o thou_o so_o
