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.

They who are most jealous of their own corruptions, are best fortified against dangerous falls. Therefore is it said by the wise man: 1Blessed is he that feareth always, but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief. That was Hasaels case: he suspected not himself, and therefore when the Prophet told him that he should be a cruel man, that he should slay the young men of Israel with the sword, and dash their infants against the stones, and rend in pieces their women with child: he said unto the Prophet, What?
