these_o word_n be_v part_n of_o that_o solemn_a form_n in_o which_o our_o bless_a saviour_n first_o celebrate_v the_o holy_a sacrament_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n an●_n establish_v it_o as_o a_o

whether_o our_o apostle_n recount_v the_o history_n of_o this_o great_a institution_n according_a to_o what_o some_o of_o those_o who_o be_v present_a at_o the_o first_o celebration_n of_o it_o have_v

than_o you_o see_v contain_v a_o positive_a command_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n himself_o of_o something_o which_o he_o order_v his_o apostle_n to_o do_v with_o reference_n to_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n and_o my_o business_n at_o this_o time_n shall_v be_v to_o consider_v what_o that_o be_v and_o how_o far_o we_o at_o this_o day_n be_v to_o look_v upon_o ourselves_o to_o be_v concern_v in_o it_o i_o shall_v reduce_v what_o i_o have_v to_o offer_v upon_o this_o occasion_n to_o these_o two_o general_a consideration_n i._o of_o the_o false_a construction_n and_o application_n which_o those_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n make_v of_o these_o word_n which_o have_v do_v so_o far_o as_o may_v be_v necessary_a to_o the_o follow_a discourse_n i_o will_v then_o ii_o show_n what_o indeed_o it_o be_v that_o our_o bless_a saviour_n here_o command_v his_o apostle_n and_o in_o they_o all_o of_o we_o to_o do_v in_o remembrance_n of_o he_o and_o by_o that_o time_n i_o have_v clear_o examine_v these_o two_o point_n i_o presume_v i_o shall_v in_o some_o measure_n have_v lay_v open_a the_o whole_a nature_n and_o design_n of_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n and_o in_o that_o have_v answer_v the_o end_n of_o these_o solemn_a and_o extraordinary_a assembly_n and_o first_o i_o be_o to_o consider_v i._o that_o false_a construction_n and_o application_n which_o those_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n make_v of_o these_o word_n it_o be_v the_o opinion_n of_o those_o of_o the_o other_o communion_n that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n here_o speak_v to_o his_o apostle_n not_o as_o the_o representative_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o church_n ibid._n but_o as_o those_o who_o he_o be_v now_o about_o to_o consecrate_v to_o the_o peculiar_a office_n of_o the_o ministry_n in_o it_o and_o therefore_o that_o command_a these_o to_o do_v this_o he_o do_v at_o once_o both_o command_v they_o to_o continue_v this_o holy_a sacrament_n for_o ever_o in_o his_o church_n and_o also_o at_o the_o same_o time_n invest_v they_o with_o a_o power_n to_o consecrate_v and_o take_v and_o distribute_v it_o to_o other_o as_o he_o have_v do_v to_o they_o to_o which_o if_o we_o do_v add_v their_o other_o notion_n of_o this_o sacrament_n viz._n that_o in_o the_o celebration_n of_o it_o there_o be_v 1_o a_o true_a and_o proper_a offer_v make_v for_o the_o sin_n and_o satisfaction_n both_o of_o the_o dead_a and_o the_o live_n we_o shall_v then_o find_v the_o full_a import_n of_o our_o text_n according_a to_o their_o sense_n to_o be_v this_o do_v this_o that_o be_v receive_v the_o power_n which_o i_o hereby_o give_v you_o of_o consecrate_v i._n e._n 4._o of_o convert_v these_o element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n into_o the_o true_a and_o proper_a substance_n of_o my_o body_n and_o blood_n and_o have_v so_o do_v 2_o offer_v they_o up_o to_o my_o father_n as_o a_o true_a and_o real_a propitiatory_a sacrifice_n 3._o for_o the_o sin_n and_o satisfaction_n for_o the_o punishment_n and_o all_o other_o the_o necessity_n of_o all_o my_o faithful_a disciple_n whether_o they_o be_v alive_a or_o dead_a whether_o they_o be_v yet_o on_o earth_n or_o go_v to_o purgatory_n such_o be_v the_o account_n which_o those_o of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n give_v we_o of_o these_o word_n and_o in_o this_o they_o be_v so_o very_o confident_a that_o they_o not_o only_o sit_v anathematise_v all_o those_o who_o shall_v say_v either_o that_o christ_n in_o this_o command_n do_v not_o institute_v his_o apostle_n priest_n or_o that_o he_o do_v not_o command_n that_o they_o and_o other_o priest_n shall_v in_o like_a manner_n offer_v up_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n but_o have_v also_o make_v it_o the_o very_a form_n of_o ordain_v priest_n at_o this_o day_n in_o their_o

come_v frequent_o too_o when_o you_o shall_v begin_v effectual_o to_o perceive_v the_o benefit_n of_o your_o communicate_v in_o the_o still_o new_a increase_n of_o piety_n and_o holiness_n in_o all_o your_o action_n when_o be_v full_a with_o a_o constant_a sense_n of_o the_o love_n of_o the_o bless_a jesus_n here_o set_v forth_o to_o we_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o to_o be_v the_o desire_n and_o long_v of_o your_o soul_n to_o come_v often_o to_o this_o grateful_a and_o please_a declaration_n of_o it_o when_o in_o a_o word_n be_v accustom_v to_o consider_v the_o blessing_n and_o advantage_n of_o that_o new_a covenant_n our_o bless_a master_n have_v seal_v to_o we_o in_o his_o blood_n and_o here_o offer_v to_o renew_v with_o we_o in_o this_o sacrament_n you_o shall_v wish_v if_o it_o may_v be_v every_o day_n to_o repeat_v it_o and_o think_v you_o can_v never_o enough_o declare_v your_o desire_n of_o be_v admit_v into_o the_o condition_n and_o advantage_n of_o it_o and_o thus_o have_v i_o offer_v to_o you_o what_o i_o suppose_v may_v suffice_v for_o the_o full_a explication_n of_o the_o word_n before_o we_o and_o from_o the_o account_n of_o which_o we_o may_v now_o easy_o see_v what_o be_v the_o true_a nature_n and_o design_n of_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n namely_o that_o it_o be_v institute_v by_o our_o saviour_n to_o be_v a_o sacred_a and_o solemn_a memorial_n of_o that_o death_n and_o passion_n which_o he_o undergo_v for_o we_o and_o of_o the_o great_a benefit_n and_o advantage_n which_o accrue_v to_o we_o thereby_o that_o as_o by_o the_o paschal_n feast_n among_o the_o jew_n god_n perpetuate_v the_o remembrance_n of_o his_o preserve_v they_o from_o the_o destroy_a angel_n first_o and_o then_o deliver_v they_o from_o their_o egyptian_a bondage_n and_o engage_v they_o to_o a_o constant_a annual_a return_n of_o joy_n and_o thanksgiving_n to_o he_o for_o so_o great_a a_o blessing_n so_o by_o this_o better_a passover_n shall_v we_o in_o like_a manner_n keep_v up_o for_o ever_o in_o the_o church_n a_o lively_a and_o affectionate_a commemoration_n of_o that_o better_a and_o more_o glorious_a preservation_n which_o our_o paschal_n lamb_n 7._o the_o lord_n jesus_n have_v by_o his_o own_o blood_n obtain_v for_o we_o and_o set_v forth_o to_o the_o whole_a world_n that_o grateful_a and_o vigorous_a sense_n which_o we_o have_v of_o so_o wonderful_a and_o bless_a a_o deliverance_n now_o this_o be_v the_o true_a meaning_n and_o design_n of_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n we_o may_v from_o hence_o see_v how_o great_a and_o dangerous_a the_o mistake_v be_v which_o some_o have_v run_v into_o concern_v it_o with_o reference_n both_o to_o faith_n and_o practice_n for_o 1._o if_o this_o sacrament_n as_o we_o have_v before_o show_v be_v institute_v as_o a_o memorial_n of_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n it_o be_v then_o plain_a that_o it_o be_v not_o our_o very_a saviour_n christ_n himself_o neither_o in_o the_o state_n of_o his_o death_n nor_o in_o any_o other_o that_o be_v here_o present_v to_o we_o there_o have_v be_v in_o the_o church_n since_o the_o time_n of_o paschasius_fw-la radbertus_n one_o of_o the_o first_o considerable_a innovator_n that_o we_o meet_v with_o in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o this_o holy_a eucharist_n among_o other_o two_o different_a opinion_n concern_v the_o real_a or_o corporal_a presence_n of_o christ_n in_o this_o sacrament_n and_o both_o maintain_v with_o no_o small_a contention_n at_o this_o day_n one_o that_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v convert_v into_o the_o very_a natural_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o nothing_o of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n themselves_o at_o all_o remain_n but_o only_o in_o show_n and_o appearance_n which_o be_v what_o they_o call_v transubstantiation_n the_o other_o that_o the_o true_a substance_n of_o the_o outward_a element_n the_o bread_n and_o the_o wine_n do_v indeed_o remain_v but_o that_o the_o very_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n be_v in_o a_o extraordinary_a and_o supernatural_a manner_n join_v to_o they_o so_o that_o in_o the_o communion_n of_o they_o we_o do_v together_o with_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n receive_v the_o true_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n into_o our_o mouth_n true_o and_o real_o present_a which_o they_o call_v consubstantiation_n now_o however_o the_o latter_a of_o these_o be_v much_o the_o more_o pardonable_a error_n of_o the_o two_o as_o neither_o do_v any_o violence_n to_o our_o sense_n which_o evident_o tell_v we_o that_o what_o we_o see_v and_o receive_v in_o this_o sacrament_n be_v certain_o bread_n and_o wine_n nor_o contradict_v the_o many_o passage_n of_o scripture_n which_o declare_v to_o we_o the_o same_o thing_n yet_o be_v they_o both_o very_a great_a mistake_v the_o natural_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o capable_a of_o exist_v in_o more_o place_n than_o one_o at_o the_o same_o time_n nor_o to_o be_v divest_v of_o the_o inseparable_a property_n of_o a_o body_n such_o as_o extension_n of_o part_n space_n figure_n and_o the_o like_a in_o which_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o a_o body_n as_o it_o be_v distinguish_v from_o a_o spirit_n do_v consist_v but_o these_o opinion_n do_v not_o only_o involve_v a_o plain_a impossibility_n in_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o but_o moreover_o do_v carry_v a_o manifest_a incongruity_n to_o the_o nature_n and_o design_n of_o this_o institution_n for_o if_o the_o end_n of_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n be_v as_o our_o text_n show_v to_o be_v a_o remembrance_n of_o christ_n a_o sign_n and_o figure_n of_o his_o body_n break_v and_o of_o his_o blood_n shed_v for_o we_o then_o certain_o as_o in_o all_o other_o case_n the_o sign_n must_v be_v different_a from_o the_o thing_n signify_v so_o here_o the_o sacrament_n of_o christ_n body_n be_v not_o his_o body_n but_o the_o memorial_n of_o it_o the_o sacrament_n of_o his_o blood_n be_v not_o his_o very_a blood_n but_o the_o figure_n and_o representation_n of_o it_o and_o thus_o these_o latter_a word_n do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o become_v the_o best_a and_o clear_a interpretation_n of_o the_o former_a this_o be_v my_o body_n which_o be_v give_v for_o you_o and_o show_v that_o we_o be_v to_o interpret_v it_o after_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o when_o we_o read_v in_o the_o like_a kind_n of_o speak_v in_o the_o old_a testament_n this_o be_v the_o lord_n be_v passover_n i._n e._n the_o memorial_n of_o that_o action_n when_o the_o angel_n pass_v over_o the_o house_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n and_o destroy_v they_o not_o when_o at_o the_o same_o time_n he_o slay_v the_o egyptian_n but_o here_o it_o may_v be_v ask_v do_v we_o then_o exclude_v christ_n altogether_o from_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n and_o leave_v only_o a_o empty_a sign_n a_o mere_a ceremonial_a remembrance_n of_o he_o and_o no_o more_o god_n forbid_v nay_o but_o i_o dare_v say_v we_o esteem_v christ_n to_o be_v no_o less_o present_a though_o in_o another_o manner_n than_o they_o inasmuch_o as_o in_o this_o sacred_a ordinance_n he_o communicate_v himself_o in_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o passion_n in_o a_o more_o especial_a manner_n to_o every_o faithful_a receiver_n of_o this_o bless_a sacrament_n and_o make_v the_o bread_n which_o he_o eat_v and_o the_o wine_n which_o he_o drink_v become_v not_o indeed_o by_o any_o such_o needless_a and_o absurd_a change_n as_o we_o before_o mention_v but_o by_o grace_n and_o blessing_n by_o his_o divine_a power_n and_o spiritual_a communication_n his_o body_n break_v and_o his_o blood_n shed_v for_o we_o to_o all_o the_o effect_n of_o piety_n and_o justification_n the_o element_n be_v not_o alter_v they_o continue_v not_o only_o after_o the_o consecration_n but_o in_o the_o very_a receive_n of_o they_o the_o same_o they_o be_v before_o bread_n and_o wine_n without_o any_o bodily_a substance_n beside_o either_o veil_a under_o those_o appearance_n or_o receive_v together_o with_o they_o but_o by_o faith_n at_o the_o same_o time_n that_o we_o take_v these_o into_o our_o mouth_n we_o take_v he_o also_o who_o they_o represent_v into_o our_o soul_n not_o as_o bring_v christ_n from_o heaven_n but_o raise_v up_o our_o mind_n and_o our_o heart_n to_o that_o holy_a place_n where_o he_o be_v we_o unite_v
