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.

1 First there is a deadly quarrel, Reasons. and mortal enmity between God and him: §1for who are they, that are reconciled to the Lord, 1whose sins are covered by the righteousness of his son, so that they shall not be imputed unto them? even they In whose spirit there is no guile. And what will follow then for those, 2whose hearts are full of fraud and deceit, but that they must needs be destitute of all hope of the pardon of their sins, and so consequently lye open to the strokes of Gods vengeance due unto the same?
