estate neuer to perish neuer to dye a second death as the wicked doe Q. What benefits finde the faithfull after death in the estate of Immortalitie and after this mortall life A. The death of euery faithfull member of Christ washed in Baptisme with his precious bloud is precious in Gods sight and as the sight of God shall bring all celestiall ioy so the presence of God where is all fulnesse of Ioy perpetuall peaee shall fulfill the faithfull so full of that felicitie tranquilitie and heauenly glory which is vnspeakeable for excellencie perpetuitie whether good Lord bring vs all Amen A Prayer at the end of this second part to bee vsed BLessed Lord God as we praise thy Maiestie for thy mercy in instructing vs so we humblie pray thee that wee being instructed in the true knowledg of thy elected Church and sanctified Congregation and hauing learned that as a pledge of thy loue thou hast left the Sacrament of Baptisme by effectuall operation to represent the washing away of our sins and sealing assurance of saluation to our soules by the precious bloud of thy deare Sonne to our eternall safetie Free vs good Lord we beseech thee from all originall corruption By thy holy spirit make perfect our Regeneration by our new birth grant that our old euils of Adam in vs naturally may more and more be mortified the fruits of holinesse in vs may more be increased to thy glory and our good And good father we pray thee by the example of faithfull Abraham which hath by thy word beene taught vs so instruct vs thy seruants that we and our seede may faithfully keepe our promised Couenants made to thee in Baptisme both in obeying thy holy commandements our selues and also instructing our children seruants in the same obedience so that we and our familie may daily endeuour to please and serue thy Maiestie in holy obedience And gratious Lord seeing we feele sinne to haue in our flesh a permanency giue vs such power ouer our sinne that in vs it may neuer haue soueraignitie And grant vs such grace that both bodily death and the graue may bring benefits to vs and to all true beleeuers And in the day of the Resurrection our bodies rising to immortalitie may bee ioyned to our soules to enioy in thy glorious kingdome euerlasting glory through Iesus Christ our Lord and glorious Redeemer Amen ⸫ A Prayer before the Sacrament of the LORDS Supper BLessed holy and heauenly Father without whom there is no felicitie no sanctitie nor at the banket of thy deare son with thy Saints no societie We beseech thee good Lord sanctifie vs poore sinners that both our bodies and soules may from all former impuritie bee purged and with the wedding garment of true Christianitie and charitie bee clothed For our farther preparation peirce our harts with an earnest sorrow for our sinnes that by such penitency we may bee purged from our grieuous offences Moreouer we beseech thee plant in our harts that faith in thy promises that by beleeuing thy Sonne to be the bread of life hee may sustaine our soules to eternall life And we with a liuely faith beleeuing and receiuing those banquetting Dishes and purified Wines may through faith be freed from eternall death And finally grant wee beseech thee to vs such faith and perfect perswasion that in vs this spirituall foode may haue spirituall opperation and wee thereby nourished may in grace be more increased From death eternall by faith freed And by our constant faith euerlasting life may be granted in thy glorious kingdome to liue and raigne with thee and thy deare Sonne through the same thy blessed Sonne our onely Sauiour and Redeemer Amen ⸫ Here followeth the third part of the Cristall of Christianitie wherein the Sacrament of the Lords Supper is discussed very plainely and very familiarly Question PRoceede now to the Sacrament of the LORDS SVPPER and both shew me the outwarde signes of the Sacrament and what inward sauing grates be thereby presented to the Church A. The signes in the Lords Supper are bread and wine signifying by bread his blessed body broken for vs and by wine his precious bloud powred out for remission of our sinnes Q. How doth bread signifie his bodie and represent the blessings of his bodie to vs A. As the word for bread in the true signification doth signifie all kinde of sustentation and nourishment for our bodies so doth the giuing vs his bodie signifie spiritually all sustentation for soule and bodie He is our wisedome he is our sanctification he is our iustification he is our redemption he is our saluation The giuing of Christ from God to mankind is with him giuing all good things to mankind for this life and the life to come for hee is the true bread that came downe from heauen to sustaine vs by his grace on earth vntill wee attaine glory with him in heauen Q. How doth Wine represent his bloud powred out for vs A. Christ calleth himselfe the true Vine and his grapes are spirituall graces and as he is full of grace so his grapes are full of spirituall power and when his head was with thornes rased his hands and his feete with nailes boared his sides and heart pierced the purified Wine of his peirced heart was powred out to comfort our hearts wherewith hee doth commaund his Prophet to comfort his people at the heart namely with pardon of their sinnes which comfort of remission of sinnes doth approue his bloud to haue the propertie of Wine which is comfortable Q. You call it a banquet and a Supper of Christ shew mee for whom this feast is made and especially prouided A. It is made principally to his true church which before I expressed to bee the true beleeuers and none but the true beleeuers are effectually partakers of this spirituall banquet Q. Doe not all that communicate at the Lords table by the signe of bread receiue the sauing graces represented by the bread A. As wicked Iudas receiued the bread of Christ but not Christ the true bread so as many as bee Communicants hauing such or the like corruption can neuer receiue the body of Christ and his benefites presented by the bread consecrated by the Word although they receiue bread and wine at the Sacrament with others Q. How doth the bread that is consecrated differ from other bread which is vsuall for the nourishment of our bodies A. As Waxe before it hath impression of a Seals is bare Waxe and after it is more it is a Seale So the vsuall water in Baptisme and Bread and Wine in the Lords Supper by the word are made sacraments and seaies of assurance from Christ to assure his true Church and euery member thereof of his sauing graces conteined in the Sacraments Q. What may bee the difference of men which communicate all at one Communion A. As the daunger or perill of the one is great because they receiue it vnworthily not considering the Lords bodie
