obtain_v watchfullnes_n over_o our_o affection_n afterward_o and_o special_a care_n of_o better_v our_o obedience_n in_o all_o time_n to_o come_v father_n do_v not_o our_o lord_n jesus_n in_o the_o preface_n of_o his_o prayer_n teach_v we_o all_o these_o thing_n concern_v the_o manner_n of_o prayer_n child_n yes_o our_o lord_n jesus_n in_o his_o preface_n do_v in_o general_a term_n teach_v all_o these_o thing_n for_o he_o teach_v we_o to_o pray_v in_o faith_n fear_n &_o love_n in_o faith_n and_o assurance_n because_o god_n be_v our_o father_n in_o fear_n &_o reverence_n because_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n in_o love_n because_o he_o be_v our_o father_n that_o be_v a_o common_a father_n to_o we_o all_o father_n if_o we_o pray_v according_a to_o these_o rule_n be_v we_o not_o sure_a to_o

yet_o we_o see_v by_o experience_n that_o god_n do_v not_o always_o grant_v the_o petition_n and_o request_n of_o his_o own_o child_n show_v i_o therefore_o some_o reason_n why_o god_n sometime_o deny_v the_o request_n of_o those_o who_o he_o love_v most_o dear_o child_n there_o be_v four_o reason_n hereof_o 14_o first_o because_o god_n have_v otherwise_o decree_v with_o himself_o second_o 22_o because_o they_o know_v not_o oftentimes_o what_o to_o ask_v three_o 9_o because_o he_o in_o his_o deep_a wisdom_n see_v it_o not_o good_a for_o they_o last_o because_o god_n will_v try_v their_o

sacrament_n be_v there_o child_n there_o be_v but_o two_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n namely_o baptism_n and_o the_o supper_n of_o the_o lord_n for_o those_o only_o be_v sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n which_o be_v ceremony_n institute_v of_o christ_n for_o the_o common_a use_n of_o the_o whole_a church_n have_v the_o promise_n of_o grace_n annex_v unto_o they_o which_o exclude_v five_o of_o the_o popish_a sacrament_n father_n why_o be_v the_o sacrament_n call_v sign_n child_n because_o they_o represent_v to_o ourselves_o spiritual_a thing_n and_o set_v forth_o christ_n &_o his_o benefit_n to_o the_o outward_a sense_n of_o all_o father_n why_o be_v they_o call_v seal_n child_n because_o they_o seal_v unto_o our_o conscience_n the_o assurance_n of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o because_o they_o do_v effectual_o apply_v to_o the_o faithful_a the_o truth_n and_o fruit_n of_o christ_n death_n father_n be_v our_o sacrament_n but_o bare_a sign_n

only_o represent_v but_o exhibit_v unto_o we_o the_o body_n &_o blood_n of_o christ_n father_n make_v this_o more_o plain_a child_n the_o sacrament_n be_v sign_n to_o represent_v seal_v to_o confirm_v and_o instrument_n to_o convey_v christ_n and_o all_o his_o benefit_n to_o the_o beléever_v they_o represent_v because_o we_o be_v dull_a to_o conceive_v and_o remember_v they_o seal_v because_o we_o be_v full_a of_o unbeléefe_n they_o convey_v christ_n unto_o we_o because_o otherwise_o we_o do_v hardly_o apprehend_v he_o father_n the_o papist_n charge_v we_o that_o we_o affirm_v a_o imaginary_a figurative_a and_o spiritual_a body_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v present_a in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o not_o his_o essential_a body_n what_o say_v you_o to_o that_o child_n they_o do_v false_o so_o charge_v we_o for_o we_o hold_v that_o the_o godly_a receive_v the_o true_a and_o natural_a body_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v partaker_n of_o his_o very_a substance_n to_o make_v we_o grow_v into_o

his_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o his_o bone_n that_o be_v one_o with_o he_o and_o he_o with_o we_o howbeit_o not_o corporal_o but_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o be_v agreeable_a to_o a_o sacrament_n that_o be_v to_o say_v spiritual_o and_o mystical_o father_n lay_v open_a this_o point_n more_o at_o large_a child_n our_o conjunction_n with_o christ_n be_v not_o in_o imagination_n &_o conceit_n only_o but_o be_v real_a &_o substantial_a though_o secret_a and_o hard_a to_o be_v comprehend_v and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n call_v it_o a_o great_a mystery_n 5._o for_o we_o be_v tie_v to_o christ_n by_o his_o spirit_n as_o the_o natural_a member_n to_o the_o head_n by_o joint_n and_o sinew_n in_o a_o most_o secret_a and_o admirable_a manner_n for_o we_o may_v not_o carnal_o conceive_v of_o
