these_o thing_n which_o we_o on_o our_o part_n according_a to_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o covenant_n owe_v unto_o god_n namely_o faith_n love_n obedience_n we_o may_v firm_o believe_v that_o all_o

for_o we_o and_o have_v promise_v we_o this_o assistance_n that_o the_o new_a testament_n shall_v remain_v sure_a and_o perpetual_a as_o on_o god_n part_n so_o also_o on_o our_o part_n until_o at_o

for_o there_o be_v three_o principal_a head_n of_o the_o covenant_n on_o god_n part_n the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n adoption_n which_o be_v join_v with_o a_o promise_n of_o god_n perpetual_a good_a will_n grace_n protection_n and_o at_o last_o the_o full_a possession_n of_o heavenly_a inheritance_n there_o be_v also_o three_o thing_n which_o on_o our_o part_n god_n do_v require_v by_o covenant_n faith_n in_o god_n charity_n towards_o our_o neighbour_n and_o holiness_n of_o life_n or_o perfect_a obedience_n christ_n by_o his_o perfect_a obedience_n even_o unto_o death_n and_o by_o his_o own_o

whereby_o we_o endeavour_n unto_o holiness_n of_o life_n and_o true_a obedience_n be_v begin_v in_o us._n so_o christ_n bring_v to_o pass_v that_o not_o only_o the_o covenant_n on_o god_n part_n but_o also_o on_o our_o part_n remain_v sure_a and_o perpetual_a it_o be_v therefore_o our_o duty_n that_o first_o by_o faith_n give_v unto_o we_o by_o christ_n as_o we_o do_v eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o

more_o and_o more_o with_o the_o church_n even_o as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n exhort_v we_o by_o this_o argument_n that_o we_o be_v all_o one_o body_n and_o one_o bread_n because_o we_o be_v all_o partaker_n of_o the_o same_o bread_n with_o the_o endeavour_n of_o a_o holy_a life_n and_o and_o true_a obedience_n which_o be_v also_o the_o gift_n of_o christ_n we_o ought_v always_o to_o glorify_v

perfect_a union_n with_o god_n wherein_o he_o shall_v be_v all_o in_o all_o thus_o i_o believe_v concern_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o christian_a man_n in_o the_o supper_n wherein_o he_o may_v worthy_o and_o for_o his_o salvation_n eat_v the_o bread_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o drink_n of_o his_o cup._n chap._n four_o of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o supper_n see_v all_o thing_n be_v so_o as_o i_o have_v before_o show_v my_o opinion_n be_v that_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lod_n supper_n can_v be_v well_o understand_v and_o declare_v without_o some_o trope_n first_o for_o the_o cup_n it_o be_v manifest_a as_o well_o by_o the_o evangelist_n as_o by_o the_o apostle_n paul_n then_o for_o the_o bread_n it_o be_v also_o manifest_a because_o where_o as_o christ_n say_v this_o that_o be_v the_o bread_n which_o i_o have_v break_v be_v my_o body_n the_o apostle_n expound_v it_o say_v the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o the_o lord_n three_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o saint_n austen_n in_o his_o three_o book_n of_o the_o institution_n of_o a_o christian_a man_n cap._n 16._o because_o when_o we_o be_v command_v to_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n it_o you_o take_v the_o word_n of_o eat_v proper_o it_o seem_v we_o be_v command_v to_o do_v a_o heinous_a deed_n therefore_o the_o speech_n of_o christ_n concern_v the_o eat_n of_o his_o flesh_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v figurative_o moreover_o because_o if_o you_o shall_v understand_v the_o word_n without_o a_o trope_n tt_z will_v follow_v that_o the_o bread_n of_o christ_n be_v indeed_o deliver_v up_o for_o we_o and_o the_o blood_n shed_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n last_o because_o luther_n himself_o upon_o the_o six_o chapter_n of_o esay_n say_v that_o in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o supper_n there_o be_v a_o synecdoche_n with_o who_o in_o this_o point_n bucer_n do_v always_o agree_v therefore_o albeit_o each_o word_n in_o that_o speech_n this_o be_v my_o body_n be_v take_v in_o his_o proper_a signification_n so_o that_o the_o true_a and_o essential_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v attribute_v to_o the_o bread_n as_o indeed_o it_o be_v attribute_v yet_o in_o the_o whole_a speech_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v some_o trope_n see_v that_o the_o bread_n which_o be_v give_v for_o we_o and_o be_v not_o crucify_v can_v proper_o be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v deliver_v up_o for_o us._n so_o then_o the_o controversy_n be_v only_o concern_v the_o kind_n of_o trope_n by_o which_o the_o bread_n be_v call_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n i_o say_v that_o true_a body_n which_o be_v true_o deliver_v up_o for_o us._n and_o i_o think_v this_o controversy_n not_o so_o great_a worth_n that_o for_o it_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o church_n be_v trouble_v &_o that_o he_o that_o say_v it_o be_v a_o synecdoche_n do_v condemn_v he_o that_o say_v it_o be_v a_o metonymy_n and_o contrariwise_o he_o that_o say_v it_o be_v a_o metonymy_n condemn_v he_o which_o
say_v it_o be_v a_o synecdoche_n so_o that_o both_o part_n agree_v in_o this_o that_o it_o be_v the_o true_a and_o natural_a body_n of_o christ_n as_o the_o evangelist_n and_o the_o apostle_n do_v plain_o teach_v that_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o true_a bread_n and_o so_o that_o the_o article_n of_o faith_n be_v keep_v on_o both_o side_n in_o their_o plain_a meaning_n pure_a and_o uncorrupt_a as_o that_o the_o natural_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v one_o be_v finite_a be_v humane_a be_v in_o heaven_n do_v no_o more_o die_v be_v not_o consume_v not_o break_v and_o yet_o indeed_o as_o the_o scripture_n teach_v be_v offer_v unto_o all_o be_v communicate_v to_o all_o the_o faithful_a but_o in_o a_o mystery_n and_o after_o a_o spiritual_a manner_n even_o as_o the_o faithful_a themselves_o do_v grow_v up_o into_o one_o body_n and_o be_v incorporate_v with_o their_o head_n christ_n and_o with_o the_o whole_a catholic_a church_n not_o after_o a_o carnal_a but_o after_o a_o spiritual_a manner_n and_o therefore_o as_o in_o the_o spiritual_a and_o mystical_a fellowship_n with_o christ_n and_o the_o church_n wicked_a hypocrite_n have_v no_o part_n see_v they_o want_v faith_n but_o be_v only_o in_o the_o outward_a and_o visible_a society_n so_o i_o believe_v that_o those_o hypocrite_n be_v partaker_n not_o of_o the_o true_a and_o natural_a and_o true_o heavenly_a flesh_n and_o

certain_o and_o not_o without_o a_o cause_n bucer_n deni_v i_o interpret_v that_o in_o this_o sense_n wherein_o the_o same_o apostle_n say_v unto_o the_o hebrew_n that_o some_o do_v tread_v under_o foot_n the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o account_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o testament_n a_o profane_a thing_n to_o wit_n not_o because_o they_o do_v true_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n but_o because_o they_o do_v it_o unworthy_o but_o rather_o because_o reject_v by_o their_o ungodliness_n the_o body_n and_o blood_n the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v offer_v they_o drink_v and_o eat_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n unworthy_o this_o thing_n good_a christian_a assure_v thyself_o of_o that_o i_o be_o not_o so_o wicked_a as_o to_o doubt_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o christ_n word_n in_o the_o supper_n as_o some_o too_o impudent_o do_v accuse_v i_o of_o neither_o that_o i_o dispute_v of_o the_o simple_a understanding_n of_o every_o word_n in_o this_o proposition_n this_o

neither_o this_o word_n be_v do_v signify_v any_o other_o thing_n as_o i_o think_v then_o to_o be_v and_o i_o take_v this_o word_n body_n for_o the_o true_a body_n of_o christ_n as_o christ_n himself_o do_v interpret_v who_o add_v which_o be_v give_v for_o you_o and_o therefore_o there_o be_v no_o controversy_n among_o we_o whether_o in_o the_o lawful_a use_n of_o the_o supper_n the_o bread_n be_v true_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n but_o we_o dispute_v only_o of_o the_o manner_n by_o which_o the_o bread_n be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o moreover_o neither_o part_n call_v into_o question_n that_o the_o bread_n be_v after_o that_o manner_n the_o body_n of_o christ_n after_o which_o christ_n will_v then_o have_v it_o &_o will_v now_o have_v it_o to_o be_v for_o it_o must_v be_v according_a to_o his_o will_n and_o whereas_o in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o supper_n the_o will_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o express_v concern_v the_o manner_n i_o think_v it_o be_v to_o be_v
