My Lord at the Table says, Take and eat this is my Body. This is infinitely more and better then if a Rich man should say to me, take my estate, or then if an Emperour should bid me take his Crown and Diadem, or then if all the Kingdoms of the World, and all the Glory of them were offered me. When Christ offered up himself a Sacrifice unto God, that he might put sin away; how great was the Offering? If all the
Beasts in Earth, the Fowls of the Air, had been offered this offering could not have made Atonement for the sinner or for one sin. Nay if all the Angels in Heaven, had proffered themselves to be annihilated in case fallen man might be pardoned. Neither would this have been sufficient sa∣tisfaction. So that when Christ offer∣ed himself to God, he offered more, then all the World, then millions of Worlds would amount unto. And when the Lord Jesus bids me take him, and feed upon this meat indeed, this Bread of Life; shall I re∣fuse? He that receives Christ how much does he recieve? He does indeed receive all: For Christ is all in all, and filleth all in all.
