John6:54

54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath e[illegible: 1 letter]ernal life : and I will raise him up at the last day .

He hath it in a sure and just right Title; and he shall have it in a certain Actual Possession:

And in order to it, he shall have a joyful Resurrection unto it at the last day. This is no more than what our Saviour had often said, particularly Chap. 3.18, 36. admitting what was before said, that by eating the Flesh, and drinking the Blood of Christ, is to be meant b[illegible: 1 letter]lievin[illegible: 1 letter] in him; onely here is a clearer discovery than was there of the true object of that Faith which justifieth, viz. a Christ Crucified, for that is signified by the Flesh and Blood mentioned.

Marginal references: Chap. 4.14.
