use_v to_o deceive_v themselves_o while_o they_o think_v that_o all_o be_v right_a although_o it_o be_v nothing_o so_o it_o be_v needful_a therefore_o that_o we_o diligent_o examine_v our_o own_o

comfort_n depend_v not_o only_o on_o the_o presence_n or_o have_v of_o grace_n but_o also_o on_o our_o inward_a feel_n and_o perceive_v that_o we_o have_v it_o which_o perceive_v that_o we_o may_v attain_v to_o it_o be_v needful_a that_o we_o serious_o examine_v ourselves_o and_o know_v what_o be_v in_o we_o use_v of_o exhortation_n that_o we_o may_v have_v a_o care_n of_o this_o duty_n and_o deal_v not_o too_o gentle_o with_o ourselves_o nor_o slight_o but_o bring_v all_o to_o a_o very_a punctual_a and_o rigorous_a trial_n now_o the_o special_a point_n that_o we_o ought_v to_o examine_v in_o ourselves_o be_v these_o 1._o whether_o we_o have_v knowledge_n and_o understanding_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o supper_n that_o be_v whether_o we_o right_o discern_v the_o lord_n body_n as_o have_v be_v teach_v in_o the_o precedent_a doctrine_n 2._o whether_o we_o have_v a_o true_a acknowledgement_n and_o repentance_n for_o our_o sin_n from_o the_o guilt_n whereof_o we_o will_v be_v disburden_v i._n e._n the_o pardon_n whereof_o we_o seek_v to_o be_v seal_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o use_n of_o this_o sacrament_n 3._o whether_o we_o have_v that_o faith_n whereby_o we_o flee_v only_o to_o christ_n that_o we_o may_v be_v free_v from_o 〈◊〉_d sin_n 4._o whether_o we_o be_v so_o far_o in_o charity_n and_o love_n with_o our_o neighbour_n as_o that_o we_o carry_v no_o spite_n hatred_n malice_n or_o revenge_n to_o his_o person_n but_o can_v pray_v hearty_o for_o he_o to_o god_n for_o his_o forgiveness_n in_o case_n he_o be_v froward_a to_o convenient_a and_o fit_a mean_n of_o reconciliation_n as_o for_o ourselves_o though_o we_o may_v not_o outward_o testify_v our_o forgiveness_n of_o he_o in_o such_o case_n where_o ecclesiastical_a procedure_n can_v be_v have_v for_o fear_n of_o harden_v he_o in_o his_o sin_n or_o expose_v ourselves_o and_o these_o mystery_n to_o derision_n or_o because_o some_o other_o hindrance_n will_v not_o suffer_v we_o as_o remote_a absence_n of_o the_o party_n and_o other_o the_o like_a and_o can_v where_o occasion_n offer_v yea_o be_v desirous_a to_o do_v he_o real_o all_o the_o good_a that_o we_o can_v doct._n 4._o the_o three_o duty_n for_o right_n communicate_v be_v that_o we_o have_v the_o disposition_n that_o be_v worthy_a and_o fit_v for_o so_o great_a a_o mystery_n it_o be_v gather_v from_o these_o word_n he_o that_o eat_v or_o drink_v unworthy_o now_o the_o worthiness_n that_o be_v here_o require_v be_v not_o the_o worth_n of_o quantity_n or_o of_o merit_n but_o of_o quality_n or_o uprightness_n in_o the_o business_n and_o of_o suitableness_n as_o when_o st._n john_n baptist_n say_v bring_v forth_o fruit_n worthy_a of_o repentance_n he_o understand_v not_o fruit_n that_o deserve_v repentance_n to_o be_v give_v we_o but_o be_v agreeable_a to_o true_a repentance_n that_o be_v true_a fruit_n of_o true_a repentance_n and_o suitable_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o reas._o 1_o because_o these_o mystery_n can_v be_v unworthy_o use_v but_o that_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n must_v needs_o withal_o be_v unworthy_o affront_v as_o it_o be_v by_o contempt_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o unworthy_a partaker_n be_v say_v to_o eat_v and_o drink_v judgement_n unto_o themselves_o to_o wit_n from_o god_n wrath_n who_o by_o this_o most_o unworthy_a ignomony_n put_v upon_o his_o son_n be_v provoke_v reas._n 2._o because_o no_o noble_a form_n be_v introduce_v ordinary_o into_o matter_n nor_o fit_o dispose_v and_o prepare_v before_o so_o the_o grace_n and_o comfort_n of_o this_o sacrament_n use_v not_o to_o be_v receive_v but_o by_o such_o as_o be_v suitable_o dispose_v and_o prepare_v for_o it_o so_o that_o who_o so_o come_v unworthy_o do_v of_o necessity_n go_v unfruitful_a from_o this_o sacrament_n as_o to_o any_o solid_a fruit_n thereof_o reas._o 3_o because_o unfitness_n and_o unpreparation_n make_v this_o most_o holy_a ordinance_n become_v a_o occasion_n unto_o many_o of_o great_a harden_v in_o their_o sin_n for_o as_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v to_o some_o a_o savour_n of_o death_n unto_o death_n not_o of_o its_o own_o nature_n but_o by_o their_o perverse_a disposition_n so_o also_o this_o sacrament_n unto_o unworthy_a communicant_n be_v not_o the_o cup_n of_o blessing_n but_o occasion_n of_o a_o curse_n now_o the_o specialty_n that_o be_v require_v unto_o this_o disposition_n be_v these_o 1._o a_o right_a and_o pure_a intention_n whereby_o we_o look_v at_o all_o and_o only_o such_o end_n in_o partake_v of_o the_o supper_n as_o god_n look_v at_o in_o the_o appoint_v of_o it_o and_o give_v of_o it_o to_o we_o 2._o a_o good_a conscience_n whereby_o we_o have_v a_o sure_a and_o firm_a purpose_n and_o resolution_n of_o obey_v god_n in_o all_o thing_n command_v by_o he_o and_o of_o shun_v all_o sin_n in_o obedience_n unto_o he_o 3._o a_o awful_a reverence_n flow_v from_o the_o right_n discern_v of_o the_o lord_n body_n 4._o humility_n which_o flow_v from_o a_o right_a examination_n of_o ourselves_o whereby_o we_o can_v but_o perceive_v our_o own_o unworthiness_n 5._o a_o great_a desire_n to_o the_o spiritual_a good_a thing_n which_o be_v offer_v we_o in_o this_o sacrament_n 6._o thankfulness_n to_o god_n for_o the_o good_n bestow_v and_o impart_v to_o we_o 7._o charity_n towards_o our_o brethren_n who_o be_v together_o with_o we_o partaker_n of_o these_o blessing_n in_o christ_n as_o in_o the_o former_a doctrine_n be_v further_o declare_v doct._n 5._o
