A treatise concerning the Lords Supper

that I might come from thence with my pardon sealed, my sins subdued, my Soul strengthened to run the ways of thy Commandments, till thou shalt come and take me to thy self, where ⟨p. 102⟩I shall see my Saviour in his glory, and behold my Lord that dyed for me on the Cross.

that I might come from thence with my pardon sealed, my sins subdued, my Soul strengthned to run the ways of thy Commandments, till thou shalt come and take me to thy self, where ⟨p. 102⟩I shall see my Saviour in his glory, and behold my Lord that dyed for me on the Cross.

Fourthly, Next I would advise thee (i• thou hast opportunity) to discourse with others of such things that may tend to raise, and not to damp thy heart. When thou hast been taking pains with thy self in secret; when thou comest from thy Chamber, take heed with whom thou dost Converse, and what thou sayest: For if in secret thou didst find thy love excited, thy desires enlarged, thy faith fastening upon Christ; frothy and unseasonable discourse before thou goest, might damp all again: or if in secret thy heart were dull, yet God might bless a word or two in holy discourse for the quickening of thy heart, and raising of thy affections towards him: when thou s•ttest at thy Table, or by the fire the Night before the Sacrament, by speaking of the wonderful grace of God, the Death of Christ, of the benefits thereby, of hope of Heaven, of the coming of the Lord, of the glory there is above, of the Sabbath the redeemed of the Lord shall keep above in the Kingdom of their Father ▪ When the two Disciples were discoursing of Christs Death and Sufferings, Christ came and joined himself unto them, Luk 24▪13, 14, 15. If you be two discoursing together, Christ might come and make the third, and hen your hearts will burn within you.
