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.

For seeing that in the nature of Christ, the fullness of the Godhead doth personally rest and abide, that both the natures of the Godhead & the manhood, make but one Christ, what is there needful for your salvation, that you may not have abundantly in him?
For seeing that in the nature of Christ, the fulnesse of the Godhead doth personally rest and abide, that both the natures of the Godhead & the manhood, make but one Christ, what is there needfull for your saluation, that you may not haue aboundantly in him?
verse. 10. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all Principality and Power.
Considering that this fullness of all graces which is in him, he hath not for himself but for you, with all whatsoever you have need of unto salvation.
Considering that this fulnesse of all graces which is in him, he hath not for himselfe but for you, with all whatsoeuer you haue neede of vnto saluation.
And the same Christ howsoever a little inferior to Angels, as touching his manhood, yet now according to his manhood is head, not only of the Church (as is aforesaid) but of all Powers and Principalities that are in heaven; whereby may appear their error, which worship Angels.
