God gave special Charge to the Israelites, concerning their eating the Passover; He was greatly provoked by the Neglect of it. Numb. 9.13. But that Man that is clean, and is not in a Journey, and forbeareth to keep the Passover, even that Man shall be cut off from his People, &c. What then will become of them who refuse to come to Christ, and eat of this spiritual Passover? Also it may stir up such sincere and godly Souls to look about them, and cause them to tremble, who live in the great Neglect of coming to the holy Supper of our Lord. Surely there is as good Ground and Reason for you to obey the Lord Jesus in this Ordinance, as there was for Israel to obey Moses in keeping the Passover; nay, I may show much greater.
