and_o not_o do_v you_o know_v not_o what_o this_o sacrament_n contain_v these_o three_o part_n 1._o the_o consecration_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n which_o make_v it_o the_o representative_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n 2._o the_o representation_n and_o commemoration_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n 3._o the_o communion_n or_o communication_n by_o christ_n and_o reception_n by_o the_o people_n 1._o in_o the_o consecration_n the_o church_n do_v first_o offer_v the_o creature_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n to_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n to_o this_o sacred_a use_n and_o god_n accept_v they_o and_o bless_v they_o to_o this_o use_n which_o he_o signify_v both_o by_o the_o word_n of_o his_o own_o institution_n and_o by_o the_o action_n of_o his_o minister_n and_o their_o benidiction_n they_o be_v the_o agent_n of_o god_n to_o the_o people_n in_o this_o accept_n and_o blessing_n as_o they_o be_v the_o agent_n of_o the_o people_n to_o god_n in_o offer_v or_o dedicate_a the_o creature_n to_o this_o use_n 2._o this_o consecration_n have_v a_o special_a respect_n to_o god_n the_o father_n in_o it_o we_o acknowledge_v his_o three_o grand_a relation_n 1._o that_o he_o be_v the_o creator_n and_o so_o the_o owner_n of_o all_o the_o creature_n for_o we_o offer_v they_o to_o he_o as_o his_o own_o 2._o that_o he_o be_v our_o righteous_a governor_n who_o law_n it_o be_v that_o adam_n and_o we_o have_v break_v and_o who_o require_v satisfaction_n and_o have_v receive_v the_o sacrifice_n and_o atonement_n and_o have_v dispense_v with_o the_o strict_a and_o proper_a execution_n of_o that_o law_n and_o will_v rule_v we_o hereafter_o by_o the_o law_n of_o grace_n 3._o that_o he_o be_v our_o father_n or_o benefactor_n who_o have_v free_o give_v we_o a_o redeemer_n and_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n who_o love_n and_o favor_n we_o have_v forfeit_v by_o sin_n but_o desire_v &_o hope_v to_o be_v reconcile_v by_o christ_n 3._o as_o christ_n himself_o be_v incarnate_a and_o true_a christ_n before_o he_o be_v sacrifice_v to_o god_n and_o be_v sacrifice_v to_o god_n before_o that_o sacrifice_n be_v communicate_v for_o life_n and_o nourishment_n to_o soul_n so_o in_o the_o sacrament_n consecration_n must_v first_o make_v the_o creature_n to_o be_v the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n representative_a and_o then_o the_o sacrifice_a of_o that_o flesh_n and_o blood_n must_v be_v represent_v and_o commemorate_a and_o then_o the_o sacrifice_a flesh_n and_o blood_n communicate_v to_o the_o receiver_n for_o their_o spiritual_a life_n ii_o the_o commemoration_n chief_o but_o not_o only_o respect_v god_n the_o son_n for_o he_o have_v ordain_v that_o these_o consecrate_a representation_n shall_v in_o their_o manner_n and_o measure_n supply_v the_o room_n of_o his_o bodily_a presence_n while_o his_o body_n be_v in_o heaven_n and_o that_o thus_o as_o it_o be_v in_o effigy_n in_o representation_n he_o may_v be_v still_o crucify_a before_o the_o church_n eye_n and_o they_o may_v be_v affect_v as_o if_o they_o have_v see_v he_o on_o the_o cross_n and_o that_o by_o faith_n and_o prayer_n they_o may_v as_o it_o be_v offer_v he_o up_o to_o god_n that_o be_v may_v show_v the_o father_n that_o sacrifice_n once_o make_v for_o sin_n in_o which_o they_o trust_v and_o for_o which_o it_o be_v that_o they_o expect_v all_o the_o acceptance_n of_o their_o person_n with_o god_n and_o hope_v for_o audience_n when_o they_o beg_v for_o mercy_n and_o offer_v up_o prayer_n or_o praise_n to_o he_o iii_o in_o the_o communication_n though_o the_o sacrament_n have_v respect_n to_o the_o father_n as_o the_o principal_a giver_n and_o to_o the_o son_n as_o both_o the_o gift_n and_o giver_n yet_o have_v it_o a_o special_a respect_n to_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o be_v that_o spirit_n give_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n which_o quicken_v soul_n without_o which_o the_o flesh_n will_v profit_v nothing_o and_o who_o operation_n must_v convey_v and_o apply_v christ_n save_v benefit_n to_o we_o john_n 6._o 63._o &_o 7._o 39_o these_o three_o be_v the_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n in_o whole_a as_o comprehend_v that_o sacred_a

the_o second_o be_v the_o action_n of_o break_v pour_v out_o and_o deliver_v on_o the_o minister_n part_n after_o the_o conscration_n and_o the_o take_v eat_v and_o drink_v by_o the_o receiver_n as_o

and_o wine_n as_o if_o you_o hear_v christ_n himself_o say_v to_o you_o take_v my_o body_n and_o blood_n and_o the_o pardon_n and_o grace_n which_o be_v thereby_o purchase_v it_o be_v a_o great_a

take_v heed_n of_o these_o two_o extreme_n 1._o that_o you_o come_v not_o profane_o and_o careless_o with_o common_a heart_n as_o to_o a_o common_a work_n for_o god_n will_v be_v sanctify_v in_o
