Ten sermons tending chiefly to the fitting of men for the worthy receiving of the Lords Supper Wherein amongst many other holy instructions: the doctrines of sound repentance and humiliation, and of Gods special favours unto penitent sinners, and worthy communicants are largely and effectually handled. The six first, by I. Dod. The four last, by R. Cleaver. Whereunto is annexed, a plain and learned metaphrase on the epistle to the Colossians, written by a godly and judicious preacher. There is also set before the sermons, a short dialogue of preparation: containing the chief points that concern the worthy receiving of the Lords Supper, taken for the most part, out of the sermons following: and collected into a method for the benefit and ease of those that desire direction in this matter.Ten sermons tending chiefely to the fitting of men for the worthy receiuing of the Lords Supper VVherein amongst many other holy instructions: the doctrines of sound repentance and humiliation, and of Gods speciall fauours vnto penitent sinners, and worthy communicants are largely and effectually handled.

Where if you ask, how I that never saw you, should be thus ⟨p. 91⟩careful of you: and should care for you so much, that never came to see you? know, that although I be absent as touching the flesh, yet I am present with you as touching the spirit, rejoicing to see your good order, and policy of the Church, caused through the soundness of the faith which is towards Christ.

vers. 6. As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him.
vers. 6. As ye haue therefore receiued Christ Iesus the Lord, so walke in him.
Wherefore as you have received the Lord Jesus Christ, so let it appear by your conversation, as in all other things, so in holding fast the truth of the Gospel.
Wherfore as you haue receiued the Lord Iesus Christ, so let it appeare by your conuersation, as in all other things, so in holding fast the truth of the Gospell.
