natural_a body_n and_o blood_n be_v not_o to_o be_v look_v for_o in_o the_o sacrament_n 3.21_o show_v more_o plain_o what_o be_v mean_v when_o it_o be_v say_v we_o receive_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n

be_v receive_v then_o when_o the_o word_n only_o be_v to_o be_v hear_v and_o that_o because_o that_o i_o may_v come_v to_o the_o matter_n i_o intend_v christ_n with_o all_o his_o benefit_n be_v offer_v in_o the_o sacrament_n very_o particular_o or_o singular_o and_o very_o plain_o and_o sensible_o first_o there_o be_v a_o peculiar_a particularity_n or_o particular_a deal_n and_o distribution_n in_o sacrament-administration_n 106._o in_o preach_v we_o speak_v general_o yet_o comprehend_v particular_a person_n but_o not_o single_v they_o out_o whereas_o in_o the_o sacrament_n christ_n be_v offer_v personal_o that_o be_v to_o particular_a person_n and_o be_v put_v as_o it_o be_v sacramental_o into_o every_o one_o hand_n now_o when_o god_n deal_v with_o particular_a person_n hand_n to_o hand_n offer_v they_o so_o great_a a_o gift_n as_o christ_n be_v 10._o there_o be_v therefore_o more_o reason_n of_o reverence_n and_o of_o care_n that_o such_o a_o gift_n from_o such_o a_o giver_n be_v not_o take_v with_o unwashen_n hand_n and_o heart_n we_o find_v that_o when_o joseph_n and_o esther_n be_v to_o appear_v personal_o before_o king_n he_o shave_v himself_z and_o change_v his_o raiment_n 41.14_o and_o she_o put_v on_o her_o royal_a apparel_n 5.1_o and_o shall_v we_o make_v our_o personal_a approach_n to_o god_n without_o some_o special_a testimony_n of_o the_o low_a thought_n we_o have_v of_o ourselves_o and_o the_o high_a thought_n we_o have_v of_o he_o well_o may_v it_o then_o be_v say_v offer_v it_o now_o to_o thy_o governor_n 1.8_o when_o that_o poor_a

what_o christ_n be_v from_o who_o hand_n as_o it_o be_v though_o by_o the_o ministry_n of_o mean_a man_n we_o come_v each_o of_o we_o to_o take_v into_o our_o own_o hand_n thing_n of_o so_o high_a a_o nature_n second_o in_o the_o sacrament_n christ_n be_v offer_v more_o plain_o and_o sensible_o then_o in_o the_o word_n though_o in_o the_o substance_n both_o ordinance_n agree_v indeed_o in_o the_o

proper_o to_o the_o eye_n as_o in_o the_o sacrament_n for_o when_o paul_n tell_v the_o galatian_n that_o christ_n be_v set_v forth_o before_o their_o eye_n his_o meaning_n be_v only_o this_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v clear_o hold_v forth_o to_o they_o by_o his_o preach_v as_o that_o be_v which_o be_v set_v before_o man_n eye_n which_o show_v that_o thing_n expose_v to_o the_o eye_n be_v

lord_n deut._n 11.2.7_o now_o god_n offer_v himself_o to_o we_o in_o the_o sacrament_n in_o a_o more_o plain_a and_o familiar_a way_n set_v we_o as_o it_o be_v at_o his_o table_n and_o set_v before_o

two_o thing_n to_o subjoin_v that_o i_o may_v not_o be_v misunderstand_a first_o when_o i_o say_v that_o christ_n do_v in_o a_o special_a manner_n appear_v in_o the_o sacrament_n to_o our_o sense_n 68_o so_o that_o we_o may_v be_v say_v in_o a_o sort_n to_o see_v he_o touch_v he_o and_o taste_v he_o and_o that_o therefore_o he_o expect_v from_o we_o a_o answerable_a preparation_n i_o do_v not_o here_o separate_v the_o word_n and_o the_o sacrament_n but_o take_v in_o the_o word_n with_o it_o and_o the_o sacrament_n as_o a_o appendix_n and_o a_o additional_a ordinance_n to_o it_o and_o that_o such_o a_o ordinance_n as_o have_v its_o dignity_n work_v and_o be_v in_o and_o from_o the_o word_n of_o institution_n and_o promise_n for_o what_o be_v the_o seal_n without_o the_o write_n but_o as_o affix_v to_o it_o it_o be_v of_o much_o value_n the_o press_v therefore_o of_o special_a sacrament-preparation_n no_o way_n derogate_v from_o the_o word_n but_o rather_o heighten_v the_o estimation_n of_o it_o inasmuch_o as_o the_o sacrament_n be_v found_v on_o it_o and_o yet_o this_o dependence_n of_o the_o sacrament_n on_o the_o word_n hinder_v not_o the_o truth_n of_o that_o which_o calvin_n affirm_v and_o confirm_v out_o of_o austin_n which_o be_v that_o the_o sacrament_n have_v this_o peculiar_a to_o they_o above_o the_o word_n that_o they_o do_v represent_v unto_o we_o to_o the_o life_n the_o promise_n of_o god_n even_o as_o if_o they_o be_v picture_v in_o a_o table_n before_o our_o eye_n 6._o second_o when_o i_o plead_v for_o sacrament-reverence_n i_o be_o far_o from_o allow_v any_o thing_n which_o shelter_v itself_o under_o the_o head_n of_o a_o high_a estimation_n of_o this_o ordinance_n arise_v from_o or_o tend_v to_o superstition_n or_o any_o way_n countenance_v or_o come_v near_o unto_o the_o idolatrous_a worship_n of_o the_o papist_n wherewith_o they_o deify_v and_o defile_v the_o sacrament_n all_o that_o i_o move_v for_o be_v a_o reverend_a carriage_n of_o
