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.

And though those be singular virtues, yet above them all, as the root and mother of them, deck your selves with love, which is as it were a bond to bind in a bundle those, and all other virtues tending to perfection; and without which there is no soundness in any of them, what glittering show soever they carry.

Verse 15. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which ye are called in one body, and be ye amiable.
And though the spirit of the old man within you, hath a desire to contend, yet let the peace of God bear the sway and overcome: unto the which peace you are evidently called, in that you are members of one mystical body. For the better entertainment of which peace, be grateful one to another, as well in conferring, as in requiting benefits.
