by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v usual_a among_o the_o ancient_a father_n domin_v of_o the_o church_n ground_v themselves_o from_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o

and_o figure_n be_v use_v 2._o in_o the_o sacrament_n contrary_a to_o the_o opinion_n and_o assertion_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n as_o we_o make_v plain_a by_o the_o institution_n and_o as_o we_o constrain_v the_o adversary_n themselves_o to_o confess_v as_o when_o it_o be_v say_v his_o body_n be_v break_v where_o the_o lyterall_a sense_n can_v be_v retain_v see_v a_o bone_n of_o he_o

these_o and_o such_o like_a can_v be_v interpret_v without_o a_o figure_n last_o see_v of_o this_o one_o action_n the_o whole_a sacrament_n have_v his_o denomination_n 207_o as_o appear_v in_o many_o place_n act_n two_o 42._o and_o xx_o 7._o and_o 1_o cor_n xi_o xxiiii_o we_o must_v hold_v that_o as_o the_o apostle_n and_o other_o minister_n of_o the_o church_n be_v wont_n in_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o supper_n to_o break_v the_o bread_n so_o must_v we_o follow_v their_o example_n as_o they_o also_o follow_v the_o example_n

have_v authority_n to_o seal_v the_o charter_n &_o pardon_n in_o who_o jurisdiction_n it_o be_v to_o grant_v it_o so_o likewise_o god_n give_v the_o pledge_n and_o token_n of_o his_o grace_n which_o shed_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n into_o our_o heart_n wherefore_o the_o reverend_a sacrament_n of_o the_o church_n none_o can_v institute_v by_o his_o authority_n but_o only_o god_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o sign_n have_v the_o name_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v none_o but_o christ_n himself_o can_v say_v of_o the_o bread_n this_o be_v my_o body_n none_o but_o he_o can_v say_v of_o the_o cup_n this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n none_o but_o he_o breathe_v on_o his_o apostle_n can_v say_v receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n none_o but_o he_o can_v make_v the_o water_n in_o baptism_n to_o be_v the_o laver_n of_o regeneration_n let_v we_o see_v what_o good_a and_o profitable_a use_n arise_v from_o this_o doctrine_n first_o if_o the_o sacrament_n be_v the_o ordinance_n of_o 1._o god_n than_o they_o depend_v not_o one_o the_o worthiness_n or_o unworthynesse_n fitness_n or_o unfitnesse_n vice_n or_o virtue_n of_o the_o minister_n but_o all_o the_o efficacy_n and_o force_n hang_v on_o the_o holy_a institution_n of_o christ_n jesus_n the_o minister_n impiety_n &_o wickedness_n make_v not_o a_o nullity_n of_o the_o sacrament_n neither_o hinder_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o worthy_a receiver_n no_o more_o than_o the_o piety_n and_o godliness_n of_o a_o faithful_a minister_n can_v profit_v a_o unworthy_a receiver_n indeed_o the_o church_n must_v endeavour_v that_o the_o minister_n thereof_o may_v be_v holy_a and_o unblameable_a according_a to_o the_o apostle_n 3._o rule_v but_o we_o must_v not_o measure_n the_o profit_n of_o the_o receiver_n by_o the_o person_n of_o the_o minister_n if_o a_o thief_n do_v steal_v a_o sack_n of_o corn_n we_o see_v if_o he_o sow_v it_o it_o grow_v up_o and_o bring_v forth_o increase_v because_o the_o fault_n rest_v not_o in_o the_o seed_n which_o be_v good_a but_o in_o the_o sour_a which_o be_v evil_a so_o do_v the_o sacrament_n profit_v the_o faithful_a howsoever_o he_o be_v unfaithful_a that_o do_v administer_v it_o we_o see_v if_o the_o seede-man_n have_v foul_a filthy_a and_o unclean_a hand_n that_o sow_v yet_o if_o the_o seed_n be_v clean_o sweet_a and_o fair_a it_o prosper_v so_o the_o holy_a thing_n of_o god_n god_n can_v be_v defile_v by_o the_o corrupt_a and_o sinful_a life_n of_o the_o minister_n who_o deliver_v nothing_o of_o his_o own_o but_o dispense_v the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o whether_o the_o minister_n be_v good_a or_o evil_n godly_a or_o without_o godliness_n a_o heretic_n or_o a_o catholic_a a_o idolater_n or_o a_o true_a worshipper_n of_o god_n the_o effect_n be_v all_o one_o the_o worthiness_n of_o the_o sacrament_n depend_v not_o on_o man_n but_o proceed_v from_o god_n and_o therefore_o all_o such_o as_o contemn_v the_o sacrament_n of_o god_n for_o the_o sacraledge_n of_o man_n shall_v bear_v their_o condemnation_n whosoever_o they_o be_v the_o two_o son_n of_o eli_n hophni_n and_o phinehas_n be_v 23._o exceed_v

in_o the_o same_o judgement_n so_o we_o must_v know_v god_n will_v not_o bear_v the_o contempt_n of_o his_o ordinance_n under_o any_o pretence_n whatsoever_o of_o the_o minister_n wickedness_n and_o
