Fourteenthly, Eye the blood of Christ in the Sacrament, as Satan conquering blood The Devil put it into Judas's heart to betray Christ, and into the Jews heart to murder Christ; but by his Death and Blood shed he overcame the Devil; and when he was bleeding to death, he triumphed over all infernal fiends: Col 2 15 And having spoiled all Principalities and Powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it. And by this blood of Christ shall you be enabled to overcome the Devil: Rev 12.10, 11. The Accuser of the brethren is cast down, which accused them before God, day and night, and they overcame him by the b•o•d of the Lamb.

And for this cause he is the Mediator of the New-Testament, that by means of death, for the Redemption of the Transgressions that were under the first Testament, they which are called might receive the promise of Eternal Inheritance; ver. 16 For where a Testament i•, there must also of necessity be the death of the Testator: ver 17. For a Testament is […] for after men are dead.
