by_o he_o he_o will_v none_o of_o thou_o but_o our_o answer_n be_v this_o that_o sure_o of_o both_o these_o evil_n it_o be_v best_a that_o such_o a_o one_o forbear_v to_o come_v at_o all_o nay_o i_o

thou_o must_v die_v in_o thy_o sin_n the_o point_n be_v this_o we_o must_v pull_v down_o our_o proud_a heart_n and_o cast_v out_o this_o leaven_n of_o maliciousness_n which_o make_v we_o unfit_a to_o

it_o be_v the_o lord_n supper_n as_o if_o the_o apostle_n shall_v say_v look_v how_o much_o difference_n there_o be_v between_o that_o which_o be_v your_o own_o and_o that_o which_o be_v the_o lord_n so_o much_o difference_n there_o be_v between_o your_o own_o bread_n and_o wine_n which_o you_o have_v at_o your_o own_o table_n and_o that_o bread_n and_o wine_n which_o you_o have_v at_o the_o lord_n table_n and_o look_v how_o much_o you_o prefer_v that_o which_o be_v the_o lord_n before_o that_o which_o be_v your_o own_o so_o much_o you_o must_v prefer_v the_o bread_n of_o the_o lord_n table_n before_o your_o own_o bread_n yea_o the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n in_o the_o sacrament_n if_o it_o be_v not_o receive_v with_o this_o reverend_a acceptation_n that_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n bread_n and_o the_o lord_n wine_n sure_o they_o be_v not_o the_o lord_n unto_o we_o but_o our_o own_o no_o more_o benefit_n come_v to_o we_o by_o they_o than_o by_o our_o own_o bread_n and_o wine_n at_o our_o own_o table_n and_o this_o be_v the_o reach_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o these_o two_o verse_n there_o be_v the_o first_o difference_n this_o be_v the_o lord_n and_o the_o other_o be_v our_o

the_o second_o difference_n which_o the_o apostle_n point_v at_o be_v this_o in_o the_o 22._o verse_n have_v you_o not_o house_n to_o eat_v and_o to_o drink_v in_o despise_v you_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o shame_v they_o that_o have_v not_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v the_o ordinary_a food_n which_o you_o have_v why_o you_o have_v it_o in_o your_o own_o house_n but_o this_o food_n you_o have_v it_o in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n your_o bread_n and_o your_o wine_n be_v home-food_n but_o this_o bread_n and_o this_o wine_n be_v church-food_n your_o bread_n and_o your_o wine_n be_v for_o your_o child_n servant_n and_o family_n but_o this_o bread_n and_o this_o wine_n be_v for_o god_n child_n for_o his_o house_n and_o family_n i_o hope_v there_o be_v none_o of_o you_o but_o do_v esteem_v more_o high_o of_o the_o house_n of_o god_n than_o you_o do_v of_o your_o own_o house_n and_o therefore_o by_o that_o learn_v to_o esteem_v of_o these_o mystery_n the_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n above_o that_o which_o you_o receive_v at_o your_o own_o house_n the_o three_o and_o the_o last_o difference_n be_v that_o which_o be_v in_o this_o 26.27_o and_o 28._o verse_n where_o the_o apostle_n call_v it_o this_o bread_n and_o this_o cup_n the_o cup_n of_o the_o lord_n it_o carry_v a_o implication_n i_o say_v that_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n between_o this_o bread_n and_o other_o bread_n between_o this_o wine_n and_o other_o wine_n other_o bread_n and_o wine_n they_o be_v but_o natural_a or_o artificial_a thing_n serve_v only_o for_o the_o work_n of_o nature_n but_o this_o bread_n and_o this_o wine_n that_o be_v in_o use_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n over_z and_o beside_o that_o natural_a and_o artificial_a face_n that_o be_v set_v upon_o they_o over_z and_o beside_o that_o which_o they_o have_v in_o nature_n these_o have_v a_o supernatural_a condition_n impose_v upon_o they_o from_o above_o whereby_o they_o be_v advance_v above_o any_o other_o bread_n and_o wine_n and_o make_v serviceable_a for_o the_o work_n of_o grace_n so_o than_o you_o see_v the_o apostle_n have_v point_v out_o these_o three_o difference_n it_o make_v the_o doctrine_n very_o clear_a that_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n which_o be_v in_o use_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v far_o more_o excellent_a than_o any_o other_o bread_n and_o wine_n whatsoever_o to_o confirm_v this_o let_v we_o add_v to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o scholar_n the_o word_n of_o the_o master_n luke_n 22.19_o 20._o it_o be_v

the_o lord_n supper_n say_v this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n which_o be_v in_o use_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n they_o be_v far_o better_o and_o of_o far_o great_a use_n and_o excellency_n than_o any_o of_o our_o ordinary_a food_n yea_o better_o than_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n that_o we_o have_v not_o only_o at_o our_o own_o feast_n but_o even_o at_o any_o other_o feast_n of_o the_o lord_n therefore_o well_o may_v the_o apostle_n say_v this_o bread_n and_o this_o cup_n

the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n it_o do_v belong_v unto_o he_o it_o be_v his_o bread_n and_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o the_o apostle_n note_v in_o the_o 27._o verse_n whosoever_o eat_v this_o

above_o all_o excellency_n principality_n power_n and_o dominion_n whatsoever_o we_o must_v needs_o therefore_o acknowledge_v that_o this_o bread_n and_o this_o wine_n be_v far_o more_o excellent_a than_o any_o other_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o owner_n of_o they_o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o that_o christ_n be_v the_o owner_n of_o all_o the_o creature_n they_o be_v his_o because_o he_o make_v they_o it_o be_v very_o true_a yea_o but_o yet_o we_o must_v take_v notice_n here_o of_o a_o further_o &_o a_o special_a owe_v of_o these_o creature_n whereby_o they_o belong_v to_o christ_n jesus_n and_o that_o in_o many_o respect_n first_o beside_o that_o they_o be_v his_o creature_n as_o other_o thing_n be_v these_o be_v christ_n his_o own_o by_o institution_n because_o christ_n have_v

that_o we_o have_v in_o hand_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v needful_a that_o we_o shall_v insist_v so_o much_o the_o more_o upon_o it_o yet_o i_o do_v not_o mean_v to_o make_v any_o curious_a search_n

paul_n report_v it_o in_o the_o 1_o cor._n 11.25_o this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n etc._n etc._n then_o the_o entendment_n of_o it_o be_v this_o namely_o this_o testament_n

do_v whole_o rest_v upon_o christ_n his_o blood_n answerable_a therefore_o to_o this_o ground_n we_o will_v draw_v the_o doctrine_n and_o observation_n take_v it_o thus_o namely_o that_o see_v our_o

to_o celebrate_v the_o lord_n supper_n with_o comfort_n and_o benefit_n to_o your_o own_o soul_n you_o must_v do_v as_o they_o do_v reform_v this_o error_n and_o tarry_v one_o for_o another_o consider_v more_o particular_o what_o a_o special_a item_n the_o lord_n jesus_n give_v they_o then_o do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o verse_n 23_o 24._o whereby_o he_o enjoin_v all_o that_o

point_n that_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v be_v this_o namely_o that_o whereas_o the_o apostle_n here_o in_o this_o speech_n make_v mention_n of_o the_o outward_a element_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n he_o call_v they_o by_o their_o own_o proper_a name_n eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n that_o be_v this_o wine_n he_o call_v

consecration_n to_o this_o sacred_a use_n and_o that_o appear_v by_o the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o text_n for_o look_v what_o bread_n our_o saviour_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o former_a word_n that_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o here_o see_v he_o infer_v it_o by_o way_n of_o reason_n now_o that_o which_o christ_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o verse_n go_v before_o be_v bread_n after_o it_o be_v bless_v and_o consecrate_v bread_n in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o so_o the_o apostle_n call_v it_o bread_n still_o and_o so_o likewise_o it_o appear_v plain_o by_o the_o whole_a drift_n of_o this_o part_n of_o the_o chapter_n where_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o bread_n in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o sacrament_n namely_o after_o consecration_n doctr._fw-la 2_o the_o point_n of_o doctrine_n that_o hence_o we_o be_v to_o observe_v be_v this_o namely_o that_o howsoever_o the_o creature_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n use_v in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v consecrate_v by_o the_o institution_n and_o blessing_n of_o god_n to_o a_o spiritual_a and_o sacred_a use_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o thereby_o change_v out_o of_o their_o nature_n and_o substance_n but_o still_o for_o their_o nature_n and_o substance_n they_o continue_v the_o same_o creature_n as_o before_o the_o same_o bread_n and_o the_o same_o wine_n bread_n still_o as_o it_o be_v bread_n

faithful_a receiver_n to_o make_v they_o true_o to_o partake_v of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n and_o so_o by_o his_o spirit_n be_v make_v whole_o we_o the_o end_n of_o the_o thirteen_o lecture_n the_o

and_o condition_n that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v perform_v withal_o in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o the_o verse_n you_o show_v forth_o the_o lord_n death_n till_o he_o come_v concern_v the_o action_n we_o note_v two_o thing_n first_o the_o part_n of_o it_o and_o then_o the_o frequent_v of_o it_o the_o part_n of_o it_o to_o eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n the_o frequent_v of_o it_o so_o oft_o as_o you_o eat_v it_o you_o show_v the_o lord_n death_n till_o he_o come_v we_o have_v begin_v with_o the_o part_n of_o it_o already_o and_o therein_o we_o have_v show_v how_o that_o the_o apostle_n describe_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n set_v it_o forth_o by_o the_o use_n of_o it_o not_o by_o have_v of_o it_o or_o by_o have_v access_n to_o it_o but_o by_o have_v the_o use_n of_o it_o by_o eat_v the_o bread_n and_o drink_v the_o cup._n thence_o we_o note_v that_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n consist_v in_o matter_n of_o action_n and_o use_n then_o again_o we_o note_v in_o the_o second_o place_n that_o whereas_o the_o apostle_n here_o speak_v of_o the_o element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n as_o they_o be_v in_o use_n in_o the_o sacrament_n he_o call_v they_o by_o their_o ordinary_a name_n the_o bread_n by_o the_o name_n of_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n by_o the_o name_n of_o cup_n from_o hence_o we_o gather_v this_o doctrine_n that_o even_o after_o the_o word_n of_o consecration_n and_o blessing_n still_o the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n for_o their_o nature_n and_o substance_n be_v the_o same_o as_o they_o be_v before_o still_o they_o remain_v bread_n and_o wine_n so_o far_o we_o proceed_v now_o we_o be_v to_o proceed_v further_o three_o than_o we_o be_v here_o to_o consider_v that_o the_o apostle_n here_o speak_v of_o these_o element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n as_o they_o be_v in_o use_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n he_o set_v they_o forth_o by_o a_o note_n of_o excellency_n this_o bread_n and_o this_o cup_n for_o by_o the_o cup_n be_v mean_v wine_n as_o oft_o as_o you_o eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n he_o set_v they_o forth_o by_o a_o note_n of_o excellency_n as_o in_o all_o thing_n we_o must_v keep_v a_o mean_a without_o go_v too_o far_o or_o come_v too_o short_a so_o special_o in_o matter_n of_o religion_n we_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o keep_v on_o the_o right_a way_n without_o turn_v either_o to_o the_o right_a hand_n or_o to_o the_o left_a we_o must_v take_v all_o matter_n of_o religion_n in_o that_o very_a precise_a and_o true_a strain_n that_o the_o lord_n himself_o have_v set_v upon_o they_o we_o be_v apt_a enough_o to_o err_v as_o well_o on_o the_o one_o side_n as_o on_o the_o other_o as_o well_o on_o the_o right_a side_n as_o on_o the_o left_a and_o to_o err_v on_o either_o side_n be_v alike_o dangerous_a so_o it_o be_v in_o other_o matter_n of_o religion_n and_o so_o it_o be_v in_o our_o estimation_n of_o these_o element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n that_o be_v in_o use_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n some_o do_v err_v on_o the_o right_a hand_n in_o their_o estimation_n of_o they_o think_v too_o high_o of_o they_o as_o the_o papist_n do_v that_o the_o bread_n be_v corporal_o the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n that_o the_o wine_n be_v corporal_o the_o very_a blood_n of_o christ_n on_o the_o other_o side_n other_o there_o be_v that_o err_v on_o the_o left_a hand_n in_o their_o estimation_n of_o they_o they_o esteem_v too_o mean_o and_o base_o of_o they_o as_o the_o profane_a people_n of_o the_o world_n they_o general_o esteem_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n at_o the_o lord_n table_n no_o better_a than_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n at_o their_o own_o table_n to_o meet_v with_o both_o these_o error_n and_o so_o to_o keep_v our_o heart_n upright_o in_o the_o profession_n of_o god_n truth_n herein_o the_o apostle_n in_o this_o short_a speech_n give_v we_o a_o good_a caveat_n and_o preservative_n and_o first_o that_o we_o may_v not_o think_v too_o high_o of_o they_o and_o so_o err_v on_o the_o right_a hand_n as_o the_o papist_n do_v the_o apostle_n still_o call_v they_o bread_n and_o wine_n show_v that_o in_o the_o nature_n and_o substance_n of_o they_o they_o be_v the_o same_o as_o they_o be_v before_o next_o that_o we_o may_v not_o err_v on_o the_o left_a hand_n and_o think_v too_o mean_o and_o base_o of_o they_o as_o the_o profane_a people_n do_v he_o extol_v they_o by_o a_o note_n of_o excellency_n this_o bread_n and_o this_o wine_n though_o the_o bread_n be_v but_o bread_n in_o itself_o and_o the_o wine_n be_v but_o wine_n in_o itself_o yet_o he_o speak_v with_o a_o kind_n of_o grace_n and_o majesty_n of_o speech_n this_o bread_n &_o this_o cup_n as_o single_v they_o out_o by_o a_o note_n of_o difference_n from_o ordinary_a bread_n &_o wine_n because_o they_o be_v dedicate_v to_o a_o sacred_a and_o holy_a use_n whereby_o they_o be_v advance_v above_o all_o other_o bread_n and_o wine_n whatsoever_o as_o oft_o as_o you_o eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n say_v the_o apostle_n you_o show_v the_o lord_n death_n till_o he_o come_v the_o doctrine_n hence_o to_o be_v raise_v be_v this_o namely_o that_o howsoever_o it_o be_v that_o the_o element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n that_o be_v use_v in_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v in_o nature_n and_o in_o substance_n the_o same_o creature_n
