Particular Principles concerning the Sacrament of the Lords Supper are these,
Particu•ar Principles concerning the Sacrament of the Lords Supper are these,
That it was ordained by Christ himself, as a memorial of his great love, in offering up his life a Sacrifice for our sins. That this as well as the other Sacrament of Baptism, is a seal of Gods Covenant, whereby he binds himself to perform his promises made to us in Christ, for strengthening our Faith therein. That the outward signs in the Lords Supper are Bread and Wine, by which are set forth the body and blood of Christ, which the worthy receivers by Faith do partake of in this Sacrament. That whosoever eats and drinks unworthily, is guilty of the body and blood of Christ; and therefore that every one is to examine himself, lest he eat and drink judgement to himself.
