C. 1 rep p. 113.

Proposition The Bread and Wine in the Lords Supper be not changed into another substance The proofe from Gods Word TRansubstantiation or the change of the substance of Bread and Wine in the Supper of the Lord wee doe utterly denie and the reasons moving us thereunto are for that it is repugnant to the plaine words of the Scripture For I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the Vine saith our Saviour Christ a Math 26.29 Marke 14.25 Which fruit had it really bin either the Blood or by way of concomitance the very Body and Blood of Iesus Christ then our Lord had eaten himselfe which is not onely blasphemous to be spoken but also impossible to bee done and directly against the Word of God where commandement is often given that the blood with flesh not of beast much lesse of man must not be eaten b Gen. 9 4. Lev. 17.14 The heaven must containe Iesus Christ untill the time that all things be restored saith S. Peter c Acts 3.21 If Christ therefore corporally according to his humanity be in heaven then is he not in the Sacrament As often as ye shall eate this Bread not Christ his reall Body and drinke this Cup not the reall blood of Christ you shew the Lords death till he come saith Saint Paul d 1 Cor. 11.20 Therefore he is not come which he must be being under the formes of Bread and Wine Transubstantiation besides overthroweth the nature of the Sacrament For where there is no Element there can be no Sacrament Because Gods Word comming unto the Element maketh a Sacrament Finally it hath bin the occasion of much superstition and Idolatry For from hence proceeded the Reservation of the Transubstantiated bread for sundry superstitious purposes hence the adoration of the bread even as God himselfe and that both of Priest and people hence the carrying about in pompous procession of the wafer-God and hence the Popish feast called Corpus-Christi-day The right consideration hereof hath mooved all the Churches reformed to shew their detestation hereof both by their Sermons and writings e Conf. Helv. 1 ar 22. 2. c. 21 Basil art Witten b.c. 19.
