3. When Christ was preparing himself to the greatest work of love that ever was, having his thoughts wholly bent to procure the eternal good of his Elect, then did he out of his infinite love, even in the same night that he was to be betrayed, appoint this holy Sacrament; knowing that the institution and sealing of the Testament, ought to go before the death of the Testator. This should stir us up with care and reverence, to ⟨p. 152⟩receive this pledge of Christs love, and to come unto it as unto a spiritual feast, being persuaded that Christ will respect us now he is glorified, seeing he did not forget us in his agony and passion.
