Thirdly, Christ did ordain it for this very end, that believers should have a remembrance of him in the partaking of this Ordinance: We are apt to forget the Works of ⟨p. 17⟩God, Psal. 106.13. Too apt to forget the benefits we received from God, Psal. 103.2. But which is most to be wondered at, we are too prone to forget God our Saviour, to forget him that delivered us from the curse of the Law, by being made a Curse for us: From the wrath of God, by bearing it himself; from the sting of death, by dying for us, Psal. 106.21. They forgot God their Saviour: Oh, what memories have we! that can remember our Relations, our Worldly Affairs, and forget that God that made us, and Christ that did redeem us: Now Christ would live in our thoughts and memory, and to heal and help the slipperiness thereof, hath instituted this Ordinance, which you cannot partake of aright, but you must remember him
