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.

verse 5 Mortify therefore your members which are on the earth, fornication, uncleanness, the inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry,
verse 5 Mortifie therefore your members which are on the earth, fornication, vncleannesse, the inordinate affection, euill concupiscence, and couetousnesse, which is idolatry,
Wherefore being assured of another life, mortify your members that are earthly and carnal. If you ask what? I cannot reckon up all, but I will touch some, those specially that you are infected with, whereby you may easily conceive of the rest, such as are fornication, unclean behaviour, wantonness, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which besides the excessive desire of goods, is a kind of idolatry, for that men do put their trust in riches, that are covetous.
