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.

So it is sacramentally and by a Trope: Answer. but not literally and simply, as the words may be misconstrued. The like kind of speech is used in other Sacraments: Circumcision is called the covenant, Gen. 17.13. the Lamb is called the Passover, Exod. 12.11. the rock, Christ, 1 Cor. 10.14. And is not the cup said as well to be the blood of the new Testament: and yet our Saviour calleth the consecrated wine the fruit of the vine? Matth. 26.29.
