In that here and also in the 55. of Isaiah and Luk. 14. and other places,* 1.1 the giftes, graces, and blessings, (espe∣cially that concerne saluation in Christ) are compared to fatnes, fatlings, a banquet, yea to wine, hony, milke, spices, and such like delicate things, wee learne that howsoeuer the wicked ones of the world,* 1.2 glut and pamper themselues with the abundance of Gods blessings, and their flesh is fatted and fed like hogges, yet their soules pine and fa∣mish; whereas the soules of the beleeuing are filled with Gods liberality and replenished with spiritual consolati∣on, which is to them a speciall pawne and pledge of Gods loue and prouidence towards them.
In the Gospell they haue most sweete and delicate food,* 1.3 not onely for the necessity but also for the delight of their soules, here their faith is engendred and strength∣ened, and their trembling soules are solaced, with the most comfortable assurance of remission of sinnes, and they by the word and sacraments are fed and nourished to eternall life.
Vse. Let vs therefore seeke to feed and satisfie our selues only here, let vs loue and delight in fatnesse, and bring alwaies with vs an appetite to the word, and then shall we feed on the bread of life.
