A treatise concerning the Lords Supper

6 A Sin-••athing remembrance; you will not only mourn for sin, but loath it too; when you do this in remembrance of Christ, you will abhor the Knife that killed your Father, ⟨p. 20⟩and the Sin that killed your Lord; when you remember him and it. Now you cannot have such a remembrance of Christ as this, so well without the Lords Supper, as with it: except you will unadvisedly and wickedly charge Christ with a superfluous Institution of a needless means that hath no tendency in it to beget such a remembrance of him in your thoughts; and whom will you delight to remember, if not your Lord? Who shall live in your thoughts, if not your Saviour and Redeemer? And how will you thus remember him, if you do neglect the means appointed by him for the attaining of this end?

Shall Christ himself bespeak you to do this in remembrance of him, saying▪ Do this in remembrance of me.

First, That came down from Heaven to Earth, for your sake, that left the Bosom and the Glory of my Father, to be clothed in the rags of Humanity for your sake, and will you not do it?
