affected with that sin, and it does not stir his heart, he may come to be partaker of his sin; so that those that come to see Jesus Christ crucified, and have not their hearts at all stir'd with the crucifying of Christ, they are in som regard truly said to be guil∣ty of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ; And that's the second thing, brokenness of spirit is sutable to the light of a broken Christ.
