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.

Judas had life it self, which is a thing very delightful, and of which it is truly said, though by a lying spirit: Skin for skin, and all that ever a man hath, 1will he give for his life. He had also great preferment, being one of the Apostles: and the chief office amongst them, namely to be their pursebearer; which liked him exceeding well, because he was a thief, and stole from them much of that which was given: yet notwithstanding all this, and whatsoever else can be named, our Saviour saith, it had been good for him that he had never been borne.
