Swine trample the very blood of Chrifi under their feet, andmake nothing of the Blood of Chrift, go to the Sacrament hand over head un- preparedly, and fo come to be guiltyof the Bo- dy and Blood ofChrift. Certainly thefe be not ftrains of wit above the truth and reality of things; there is a reality in it, that thy foul is charged from God this day ofwrongingChrift the fecond Perfon. Thirdly, Thouwrongefi the Spirit ofGod, in defa- cingof thework ofSan&ification C what in thee lies) in oppofing the workofGods Spirit in thy foul, in refitting the motions of Gods Spirit. Who is there but is guilty ofrefilling the moti- ons of the Holy Ghat? Who is there but at fome time or other when theyhave been at the Word, but they have had fome flirrings ofthe Spirit of God within them, when they have heard fuch and fuch truths of God ?

What a wrong is this to theHolyGhoft ? thou wron- r geft theHoly Ghofi bydefiling thyBody, which thould be the Templeofthe HolyChoit. MILWARAMAIMARAMARAA
