of_o his_o christian_a duty_n as_o much_o as_o hear_v the_o sermon_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o prayer_n i_o be_o loath_a to_o spend_v the_o time_n in_o go_v about_o to_o prove_v against_o vain_a caviller_n that_o by_o break_v of_o bread_n be_v here_o mean_v this_o holy_a action_n of_o receive_v the_o communion_n and_o not_o their_o bare_a eat_v together_o but_o to_o give_v full_a satisfaction_n in_o that_o matter_n let_v it_o be_v brief_o consider_v first_o that_o break_v of_o bread_n be_v here_o place_v in_o the_o midst_n between_o other_o holy_a action_n preach_v fellowship_n or_o communicate_v to_o one_o another_o necessity_n and_o prayer_n and_o therefore_o in_o all_o reason_n must_v be_v conclude_v to_o be_v itself_o of_o that_o nature_n not_o a_o common_a but_o a_o holy_a action_n and_o beside_o second_o their_o eat_n at_o a_o common_a table_n if_o it_o be_v at_o all_o mention_v in_o this_o chapter_n act_n two_o under_o the_o phrase_n of_o break_v bread_n be_v speak_v of_o v._o 46._o and_o therefore_o not_o intend_v here_o no_o nor_o there_o neither_o i_o shall_v show_v hereafter_o for_o even_o in_o those_o word_n also_o they_o continue_v daily_o with_o one_o accord_n in_o the_o temple_n and_o break_v bread_n from_o house_n to_o house_n or_o at_o home_n etc._n etc._n the_o break_n of_o bread_n belong_v to_o the_o holy_a communion_n and_o to_o put_v all_o out_o of_o doubt_n thus_o the_o syriack_n a_o ancient_a translation_n understand_v it_o express_o turn_v it_o thus_o in_o the_o eucharist_n as_o it_o do_v also_o act._n xx_o 7._o upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n when_o the_o disciple_n come_v together_o to_o break_v bread_n paul_n preach_v unto_o they_o etc._n etc._n that_o be_v when_o they_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o eucharist_n say_v that_o translation_n which_o be_v a_o part_n of_o their_o lord_n day_n work_n nay_o the_o principal_a part_n for_o this_o be_v the_o thing_n for_o which_o the_o disciple_n come_v together_o and_o not_o mere_o to_o hear_v the_o apostle_n preach_v and_o who_o can_v give_v any_o reason_n why_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o now_o as_o it_o be_v then_o when_o in_o familiar_a speech_n it_o be_v as_o usual_a with_o they_o to_o say_v they_o will_v go_v to_o church_n to_o receive_v the_o holy_a communion_n as_o it_o be_v with_o we_o to_o say_v in_o these_o day_n we_o will_v go_v to_o church_n to_o prayer_n or_o to_o hear_v a_o sermon_n iii_o but_o more_o than_o this_o not_o only_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o first_o believer_n after_o they_o be_v divine_o enlighten_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n expound_v the_o meaning_n and_o the_o obligation_n of_o this_o precept_n to_o be_v perpetual_a but_o christ_n himself_o show_v it_o so_o to_o be_v after_o he_o go_v to_o heaven_n and_o be_v exalt_v at_o god_n right_a hand_n for_o appear_v to_o st._n paul_n to_o make_v he_o one_o of_o his_o apostle_n and_o in_o order_n to_o it_o reveal_v himself_o and_o the_o whole_a christian_a religion_n to_o he_o which_o he_o give_v he_o commission_n and_o authority_n to_o preach_v he_o declare_v this_o to_o be_v a_o part_n of_o his_o will_n and_o a_o piece_n of_o his_o holy_a religion_n for_o i_o have_v receive_v of_o the_o lord_n say_v he_o in_o this_o chapter_n v._o 23_o 24._o etc._n etc._n that_o which_o i_o also_o deliver_v unto_o you_o that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n the_o same_o night_n he_o be_v betray_v take_v bread_n and_o when_o he_o have_v give_v thanks_o he_o break_v it_o and_o say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n which_o be_v break_v for_o you_o this_o do_v in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o after_o the_o same_o manner_n also_o he_o take_v the_o cup_n say_v this_o be_v the_o new_a testament_n etc._n etc._n observe_v here_o a_o evident_a proof_n that_o what_o our_o lord_n do_v with_o his_o apostle_n at_o his_o last_o supper_n he_o intend_v shall_v be_v do_v by_o they_o and_o by_o other_o when_o he_o be_v go_v for_o send_v one_o who_o be_v not_o then_o with_o he_o nor_o have_v any_o knowledge_n of_o he_o while_o he_o be_v on_o earth_n to_o preach_v his_o gospel_n he_o give_v he_o particular_a instruction_n about_o this_o matter_n to_o take_v care_n to_o see_v this_o do_v in_o remembrance_n of_o he_o so_o st._n paul_n who_o be_v the_o man_n to_o who_o he_o appear_v and_o give_v a_o special_a commission_n after_o he_o go_v to_o heaven_n avow_v to_o the_o corinthian_n in_o this_o place_n tell_v they_o that_o he_o deliver_v nothing_o to_o they_o but_o what_o he_o have_v receive_v of_o the_o lord_n and_o what_o he_o deliver_v to_o they_o be_v this_o that_o they_o shall_v do_v what_o the_o lord_n jesus_n have_v do_v with_o his_o apostle_n in_o remembrance_n of_o he_o this_o he_o receive_v from_o he_o that_o be_v it_o be_v of_o the_o lord_n institution_n and_o to_o be_v practise_v by_o his_o order_n and_o special_a command_n and_o therefore_o call_v the_o lord_n supper_n v._o 20._o when_o you_o come_v together_o into_o one_o place_n this_o be_v not_o to_o eat_v the_o lord_n supper_n where_o it_o be_v call_v the_o lord_n supper_n not_o because_o it_o be_v eat_v by_o the_o lord_n with_o his_o apostle_n for_o at_o that_o supper_n the_o corinthian_n be_v not_o present_a nor_o be_v that_o now_o do_v in_o this_o place_n where_o they_o come_v together_o but_o because_o it_o be_v institute_v by_o the_o lord_n both_o then_o when_o he_o eat_v that_o supper_n with_o his_o apostle_n and_o now_o again_o when_o he_o appear_v to_o st._n paul_n and_o require_v he_o to_o see_v this_o practise_v in_o the_o church_n which_o he_o convert_v and_o according_o be_v now_o practise_v in_o this_o church_n at_o corinth_n to_o who_o this_o discourse_n of_o st._n paul_n be_v direct_v iv_o in_o which_o we_o find_v many_o thing_n more_o to_o prove_v this_o to_o be_v a_o necessary_a christian_a duty_n which_o be_v the_o four_o head_n mention_v in_o the_o beginning_n i_o shall_v single_a out_o two_o which_o will_v make_v it_o evident_o appear_v to_o all_o unprejudiced_a mind_n i._o the_o first_o be_v very_o remarkable_a that_o the_o apostle_n take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o pain_n and_o spend_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o time_n in_o show_v the_o manner_n how_o the_o holy_a communion_n ought_v to_o be_v celebrate_v among_o they_o which_o he_o will_v not_o have_v do_v if_o this_o have_v not_o be_v a_o necessary_a duty_n incumbent_a on_o they_o by_o virtue_n of_o christ_n command_n and_o a_o divine_a institution_n do_v but_o consider_v this_o i_o beseech_v you_o and_o be_v at_o the_o pain_n to_o ponder_v at_o your_o leisure_n how_o serious_a earnest_a and_o laborious_a the_o apostle_n be_v here_o in_o this_o eleven_o chapter_n of_o his_o epistle_n to_o make_v the_o corinthian_n sensible_a by_o a_o long_a discourse_n about_o it_o after_o what_o manner_n they_o ought_v to_o approach_v to_o the_o table_n of_o the_o lord_n reprove_v their_o scandalous_a behaviour_n at_o the_o communion_n direct_v they_o how_o to_o reform_v it_o and_o make_v a_o due_a preparation_n to_o receive_v the_o benefit_n thereof_o and_o then_o tell_v i_o or_o rather_o tell_v yourselves_o be_v there_o any_o cause_n for_o a_o reasonable_a man_n to_o write_v so_o much_o to_o show_v how_o and_o after_o what_o manner_n the_o thing_n shall_v be_v do_v if_o the_o very_o do_v of_o the_o thing_n have_v not_o be_v necessary_a and_o under_o the_o obligation_n of_o a_o command_n can_v the_o manner_n and_o way_n of_o do_v a_o action_n be_v matter_n of_o duty_n and_o yet_o that_o action_n itself_o be_v no_o duty_n at_o all_o or_o can_v a_o man_n of_o common_a sense_n be_v very_o solicitous_a in_o give_v direction_n how_o man_n shall_v order_v themselves_o in_o a_o place_n and_o about_o a_o business_n into_o which_o they_o may_v never_o come_v but_o let_v it_o alone_o can_v the_o apostle_n be_v suppose_v to_o say_v so_o and_o so_o you_o ought_v to_o eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o command_n tie_v they_o to_o eat_v it_o and_o drink_v it_o at_o all_o and_o so_o and_o so_o you_o ought_v to_o prepare_v yourselves_o to_o partake_v of_o christ_n body_n and_o blood_n and_o yet_o after_o that_o preparation_n they_o may_v choose_v whether_o they_o will_v do_v the_o thing_n for_o which_o they_o be_v to_o be_v prepare_v sure_o we_o can_v imagine_v the_o apostle_n to_o have_v have_v so_o much_o idle_a time_n to_o spare_v nay_o to_o be_v so_o impertinent_a as_o to_o busy_v himself_o in_o order_v the_o circumstance_n of_o a_o holy_a action_n if_o the_o action_n itself_o have_v not_o be_v a_o necessary_a nay_o a_o very_a weighty_a duty_n and_o of_o exceed_v great_a moment_n which_o therefore_o he_o be_v high_o concern_v and_o take_v due_a care_n
