shall_v deal_v with_o they_o to_o this_o effect_n by_o his_o spirit_n but_o yet_o collateral_o it_o reach_v also_o to_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n for_o if_o he_o do_v deal_v with_o they_o so_o

not_o else_o that_o be_v not_o the_o meaning_n but_o we_o must_v take_v the_o word_n to_o be_v speak_v with_o implication_n of_o a_o further_a extent_n of_o this_o duty_n namely_o that_o therefore_o so_o often_o as_o we_o receive_v this_o sacrament_n we_o must_v remember_v and_o show_v forth_o the_o lord_n death_n after_o a_o special_a manner_n that_o thereby_o we_o may_v be_v fit_v and_o enable_v to_o remember_v the_o lord_n death_n at_o all_o other_o time_n both_o by_o preparation_n before_o and_o by_o continual_a meditation_n after_o for_o thus_o we_o be_v to_o conceive_v of_o the_o

not_o understand_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n or_o not_o affect_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n or_o not_o remember_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n as_o we_o ought_v therefore_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n as_o a_o principal_a mean_n to_o relieve_v we_o in_o this_o case_n in_o that_o sacrament_n the_o lord_n teach_v we_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n that_o we_o may_v understand_v it_o in_o that_o sacrament_n the_o lord_n express_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n unto_o we_o lively_o that_o we_o may_v be_v affect_v with_o it_o in_o that_o sacrament_n

to_o the_o instruction_n that_o hence_o arise_v the_o doctrine_n be_v this_o in_o that_o the_o state_n of_o this_o church_n be_v set_v before_o we_o as_o the_o pattern_n of_o true_a visible_a church_n by_o this_o that_o they_o continue_v in_o the_o apostle_n doctrine_n and_o fellowship_n and_o break_v of_o bread_n and_o prayer_n observe_v that_o wheresoever_o the_o word_n be_v true_o preach_v the_o

of_o god_n i_o name_v the_o manner_n of_o performance_n together_o with_o the_o duty_n because_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o text_n they_o continue_v in_o they_o which_o intend_v that_o not_o only_o

as_o thus_o first_o wheresoever_o these_o duty_n be_v there_o be_v a_o true_a visible_a church_n and_o second_o wheresoever_o be_v a_o true_a visible_a church_n there_o be_v these_o duty_n for_o proof_n of_o the_o first_o that_o wheresoever_o these_o be_v there_o be_v a_o true_a visible_a church_n look_v in_o the_o 10._o of_o john_n the_o 4._o and_o 27._o verse_n in_o the_o four_o verse_n our_o saviour_n say_v he_o go_v before_o his_o sheep_n and_o they_o follow_v he_o for_o they_o know_v his_o voice_n and_o in_o the_o 27._o verse_n he_o say_v my_o sheep_n hear_v my_o voice_n etc._n

always_o attend_v upon_o the_o word_n as_o the_o seal_n upon_o the_o write_n and_o the_o same_o voice_n of_o christ_n command_v the_o exercise_n of_o prayer_n and_o of_o love_n do_v consequent_o include_v they_o also_o and_o when_o it_o be_v say_v be_v the_o 27._o verse_n they_o hear_v his_o voice_n and_o follow_v he_o there_o be_v set_v down_o the_o practice_n of_o these_o duty_n so_o than_o if_o one_o shall_v ask_v we_o who_o be_v the_o sheep_n of_o christ_n the_o answer_n be_v ready_a they_o that_o hear_v his_o voice_n and_o follow_v he_o which_o be_v as_o much_o to_o say_v if_o any_o ask_v which_o be_v the_o true_a visible_a church_n the_o answer_n be_v ready_a there_o where_o be_v the_o ordinary_a use_n of_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n and_o prayer_n and_o love_n to_o the_o
