body_n answer_n we_o receive_v not_o christ_n body_n in_o the_o sacrament_n as_o he_o lie_v in_o the_o manger_n or_o as_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n but_o as_o he_o be_v nail_v on_o the_o cross_n and_o

the_o minister_n call_v be_v above_o the_o people_n 3.28_o answ_n the_o laity_n have_v as_o great_a a_o part_n in_o christ_n passion_n as_o the_o clergy_n gal._n 3.28_o and_o so_o there_o be_v
