must_v the_o word_n do_v this_o necessary_o refer_v because_o they_o immediate_o follow_v the_o do_n of_o all_o this_o and_o no_o part_n of_o this_o be_v except_v in_o our_o saviour_n command_n

to_o receive_v both_o bread_n and_o wine_n for_o so_o have_v the_o apostle_n receive_v and_o therefore_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n be_v inexcusable_a which_o direct_o contrary_a to_o our_o lord_n

in_o commemoration_n of_o they_o so_o that_o if_o we_o have_v have_v no_o direction_n about_o this_o matter_n in_o scripture_n the_o reason_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o must_v then_o have_v take_v place_n and_o that_o will_v have_v make_v this_o supper_n perpetual_a but_o the_o scripture_n have_v not_o be_v silent_a in_o this_o point_n but_o have_v plain_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o be_v thus_o to_o show_v the_o lord_n death_n till_o he_o come_v that_o be_v till_o his_o second_o come_v to_o judge_v the_o world_n second_o all_o sort_n of_o christian_n the_o laity_n or_o people_n as_o well_o as_o the_o clergy_n or_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n for_o though_o it_o be_v pretend_v by_o some_o that_o because_o our_o lord_n give_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n only_o to_o the_o apostle_n who_o be_v all_o minister_n and_o not_o any_o one_o lay_v disciple_n therefore_o he_o design_v this_o supper_n only_o for_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gosspel_n but_o not_o at_o all_o for_o the_o people_n yet_o i_o think_v the_o contrary_n may_v very_o plain_o be_v prove_v both_o from_o reason_n and_o scripture_n from_o reason_n both_o because_o it_o appear_v most_o probable_a that_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o institution_n of_o this_o supper_n be_v the_o representative_n of_o the_o people_n and_o not_o of_o the_o minister_n who_o be_v then_o much_o better_o represent_v by_o our_o great_a high_a priest_n christ_n jesus_n and_o who_o office_n it_o be_v plain_a he_o then_o alone_o execute_v and_o likewise_o because_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o people_n who_o be_v as_o much_o partaker_n of_o the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n death_n as_o the_o minister_n have_v as_o great_a reason_n to_o commemorate_v they_o as_o they_o from_o scripture_n both_o because_o it_o be_v evident_a from_o thence_o that_o the_o apostle_n constant_o administer_v this_o supper_n to_o the_o people_n as_o to_o give_v one_o instance_n for_o all_o we_o read_v act_n 2.42_o where_o we_o have_v no_o less_o
