the_o mean_n that_o also_o be_v presumption_n too_o we_o must_v make_v use_n of_o the_o mean_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v tor_z the_o increase_n of_o our_o faith_n now_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v such_o a_o special_a mean_n whereby_o the_o faith_n of_o god_n child_n be_v strengthen_v therefore_o a_o special_a care_n they_o must_v have_v to_o frequent_v the_o same_o

they_o have_v the_o seldomer_n they_o have_v it_o the_o more_o uncomfortable_a their_o life_n be_v we_o know_v that_o there_o be_v no_o mean_n whereby_o we_o have_v this_o assurance_n of_o the_o

be_v unto_o we_o and_o his_o merit_n even_o by_o actual_a possession_n the_o lord_n put_v the_o sign_n into_o our_o hand_n and_o the_o thing_n signify_v into_o our_o heart_n if_o we_o do_v believe_v and_o come_v as_o worthy_a receiver_n and_o therefore_o how_o oft_o ought_v we_o to_o be_v in_o the_o participation_n of_o this_o bless_a sacrament_n when_o as_o we_o receive_v such_o a_o benefit_n by_o it_o as_o the_o assrance_n of_o the_o pardon_n and_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o ssinne_n if_o we_o have_v the_o assurance_n of_o our_o pardon_n to_o day_n we_o be_v so_o fickle_a that_o it_o may_v

will_v never_o be_v a_o fortnight_n or_o a_o month_n at_o the_o most_o without_o his_o quietus_n est_fw-la that_o whatsoever_o change_n and_o alteration_n may_v come_v yet_o he_o may_v be_v in_o

and_o receive_v a_o actual_a acquittance_n from_o god_n and_o god_n shall_v tell_v he_o by_o his_o spirit_n that_o his_o sin_n be_v pardon_v and_o forgive_v and_o he_o reconcile_v to_o he_o in_o

our_o quietus_n est_fw-la from_o god_n always_o in_o a_o readiness_n reason_n 4_o the_o four_o reason_n be_v this_o our_o covenant_n with_o god_n be_v daily_o to_o be_v renew_v and_o therefore_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v daily_o to_o be_v receive_v and_o frequent_v and_o participate_v in_o because_o that_o be_v a_o special_a mean_n and_o occasion_n and_o bond_n of_o our_o renew_v our_o covenant_n with_o god_n it_o be_v true_a we_o do_v or_o at_o least_o we_o ought_v always_o renew_v our_o covenant_n with_o god_n in_o our_o daily_a prayer_n repentance_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o faith_n in_o christ_n special_o every_o sabbath_n day_n we_o shall_v do_v this_o and_o we_o shall_v consecrate_v ourselves_o whole_o to_o his_o service_n but_o most_o particular_o when_o we_o come_v to_o the_o lord_n table_n ordinary_a people_n common_o do_v make_v some_o kind_n of_o preparation_n according_a to_o their_o manner_n when_o they_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o in_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o thing_n the_o most_o especial_a renew_n of_o our_o covenant_n be_v then_o when_o we_o come_v to_o partake_v of_o the_o sacrament_n now_o because_o our_o covenant_n be_v daily_o to_o be_v renew_v this_o sacrament_n be_v a_o bond_n of_o the_o renew_n of_o it_o therefore_o this_o must_v oft_o be_v frequent_v that_o this_o be_v a_o special_a mean_n and_o bond_n of_o our_o renew_n of_o our_o covenant_n with_o god_n be_v clear_a because_o that_o therein_o we_o receive_v a_o pawn_n and_o pledge_v of_o the_o mutual_a covenant_n and_o promise_v make_v on_o both_o side_n a_o pledge_n from_o god_n whereby_o he_o bind_v himself_o to_o be_v our_o god_n to_o forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n to_o give_v we_o his_o spirit_n to_o justify_v and_o sanctify_v we_o and_o that_o he_o will_v save_v we_o and_o we_o by_o the_o receive_n of_o it_o do_v by_o this_o bind_v ourselves_o anew_o to_o be_v his_o people_n and_o to_o believe_v in_o the_o promise_n of_o grace_n and_o salvation_n make_v in_o christ_n and_o to_o subject_n ourselves_o to_o the_o power_n &_o work_v of_o sanctification_n &_o we_o to_o betake_v ourselves_o whole_o to_o his_o obedience_n thus_o i_o say_v be_v the_o covenant_n of_o god_n child_n renew_v with_o god_n especial_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n &_o therefore_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n daily_o to_o renew_v our_o covenant_n with_o god_n therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o have_v access_n to_o it_o &_o to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n oft_o because_o in_o it_o our_o covenant_n be_v spccial_o renew_v reason_n 5_o the_o five_o reason_n be_v our_o love_n towards_o our_o brethren_n the_o mutual_a love_n between_o the_o child_n of_o god_n that_o must_v always_o be_v kindle_v their_o love_n must_v be_v like_a to_o that_o fire_n mention_v in_o levit._n 6.13_o that_o must_v never_o go_v out_o of_o the_o heart_n one_o of_o another_o fire_n we_o know_v will_v go_v out_o if_o it_o be_v not_o kindle_v and_o supply_v with_o fuel_n so_o the_o fire_n of_o love_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n child_n be_v ready_a to_o be_v quench_v many_o occasion_n of_o worldly_a matter_n and_o other_o business_n there_o be_v that_o breed_v such_o difference_n that_o it_o make_v love_v many_o time_n cold_a and_o turn_v it_o into_o contention_n yea_o even_o in_o god_n child_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v use_v the_o mean_n whereby_o it_o may_v be_v kindle_v and_o keep_v still_o alive_a but_o there_o be_v no_o better_a mean_n to_o kindle_v it_o and_o keep_v it_o alive_a than_o the_o participation_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n there_o be_v no_o such_o bellows_n to_o blow_v up_o the_o fire_n of_o love_n in_o their_o heart_n as_o this_o when_o they_o come_v to_o the_o lord_n
