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

2. Christ's Blood being shed, ¹Believers may lay claim to all heavenly privileges; Wills are ratified by the death of the Testator. Hebr. 9. 17. A Testament is of force after ⟨p. 110⟩men are dead. It is observable in the Text; Christ calls his blood, The blood of the New Testament^*. Christ made a Will or Testament, and gave rich Legacies to the Saints, pardon of sin, grace, and glory, the Scriptures are the Rolls wherein these Legacies, are registered, Christ's blood is the sealing of the Will. This blood being shed, Christians may put in for a Title to these Legacies. Lord, pardon my sin, Christ hath died for my pardon. Give me grace, Christ hath purchased it by his Blood. The Testator being dead, the Will is in force. Christian, Art thou not filled with joy? Art thou not possessed of Heaven? yet thou hast this confirmed by Will. A Man that hath a Deed sealed, making over such Lands and Tenements after the expirement of a few years, though at present he hath little to help himself with, yet he comforts himself when he looks upon his sealed Deed, with hopes of that which is to come. So, though at present we enjoy not the privileges of Consolation, and Glorification, yet we may cheer our hearts with this, the Deed is sealed, the Will and Testament is ratified by the blood-shedding of Christ.
