The holy Eucharist, or, The mystery of the Lords Supper briefly explained

2. Remember the glorious benefits we receive from the broken Body of Christ. We usually remember those things which are advantageous to us. Christ's broken Body is a Screen t• keep off the fire of God's wrath from us; Christ's Body being broken, the Serpent's head is broken. Christ being broken upon the Cross, a Box of precious Jewels is broken open: Now we have access to God with boldness; the Blood of the Cross hath made way to the Throne of Grace: Now we ⟨p. 87⟩are made Sons and Heirs; and to be Heir to the Promise, is better than to be Heir to the Crown. Christ having dyed, we are made near a kin to the blessed Trinity; we are candidates and expectants of glory. The bloody way of the Cross, is our Via lact ea, our milky way to Heaven. Jesus Christ drank Gall, that we might drink the honey-streams of Canaan. His Cross was stuck full of Nails, that our Crown might be hung full of Jewels. Well may we remember Christ in the Blessed Sacrament!
