the_o act_n of_o christian_a religion_n now_o not_o miraculous_a of_o our_o religion_n as_o when_o every_o child_n be_v baptize_v or_o when_o every_o priest_n do_v consecrate_v because_o god_n by_o the_o omnipotency_n of_o his_o will_n and_o word_n have_v establish_v his_o spiritual_a kingdom_n of_o his_o christian_a church_n after_o this_o manner_n so_o that_o now_o this_o suppose_a her_o ordinary_a action_n and_o operation_n be_v not_o miraculous_a but_o according_a to_o the_o common_a and_o usual_a course_n of_o the_o act_n and_o operation_n which_o god_n have_v establish_v in_o the_o spiritual_a kingdom_n of_o his_o church_n and_o according_a to_o that_o spiritual_a nature_n which_o god_n have_v give_v unto_o she_o at_o her_o first_o foundation_n so_o that_o whereas_o before_o baptism_n be_v institute_v by_o our_o lord_n if_o any_o one_o shall_v have_v pronounce_v the_o word_n of_o baptism_n and_o have_v pour_v water_n upon_o a_o man_n who_o never_o be_v baptize_v it_o will_v have_v have_v no_o power_n or_o virtue_n to_o remit_v sin_n or_o to_o make_v he_o a_o child_n of_o the_o spiritual_a kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o so_o the_o first_o institution_n be_v miraculous_a because_o the_o water_n and_o the_o word_n have_v not_o this_o power_n before_o but_o now_o since_o that_o god_n almighty_a by_o the_o omnipotency_n of_o his_o power_n have_v institute_v baptism_n and_o establish_v it_o in_o his_o church_n and_o give_v unto_o it_o this_o spiritual_a virtue_n and_o power_n to_o cleanse_v man_n of_o their_o sin_n make_v they_o child_n of_o this_o spiritual_a kingdom_n which_o be_v his_o church_n and_o heir_n which_o christ_n of_o eternal_a life_n now_o this_o be_v no_o miracle_n but_o it_o be_v the_o spiritual_a nature_n and_o property_n of_o baptism_n which_o god_n who_o have_v give_v the_o nature_n and_o property_n unto_o all_o thing_n which_o they_o have_v have_v give_v also_o unto_o it_o and_o therefore_o now_o this_o be_v suppose_v it_o be_v no_o miracle_n that_o when_o a_o man_n be_v baptize_v his_o sin_n be_v forgive_v but_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o miracle_n that_o a_o man_n shall_v now_o be_v baptize_v according_a to_o the_o right_n of_o baptism_n and_o his_o sin_n shall_v not_o be_v forgive_v because_o god_n have_v once_o give_v this_o spiritual_a virtue_n unto_o baptism_n and_o have_v make_v it_o the_o nature_n property_n and_o quality_n of_o baptism_n can_v take_v it_o away_o without_o alter_v the_o course_n of_o the_o nature_n property_n and_o quality_n of_o baptism_n which_o be_v a_o miracle_n 5._o likewise_o when_o our_o lord_n institute_v the_o b._n sacrament_n he_o take_v bread_n bless_a give_v thanks_o and_o say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o by_o virtue_n of_o his_o omnipotency_n

virtue_n of_o his_o omnipotency_n they_o do_v the_o same_o that_o he_o then_o do_v the_o first_o institution_n be_v supernatural_a and_o miraculous_a but_o afterward_o bishopp_n and_o priest_n do_v and_o do_v consecrate_v the_o same_o body_n and_o blood_n which_o our_o lord_n then_o do_v without_o any_o new_a miracle_n because_o he_o who_o create_v all_o thing_n of_o nothing_o and_o have_v give_v unto_o every_o thing_n that_o nature_n property_n and_o quality_n which_o it_o have_v have_v also_o give_v bishopp_n and_o priest_n right_o ordain_v this_o property_n and_o quality_n so_o now_o it_o be_v not_o a_o miracle_n that_o priest_n do_v consecrat_v the_o true_a real_a and_o substantial_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n but_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o miracle_n if_o now_o that_o the_o eucharist_n be_v establish_v they_o do_v that_o which_o our_o lord_n then_o command_v they_o to_o do_v and_o yet_o shall_v not_o consecrat_v his_o true_a real_a and_o substantial_a body_n and_o

6._o in_o like_a manner_n in_o other_o thing_n in_o the_o beginning_n god_n create_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o the_o earth_n be_v void_a and_o vacant_a gen._n 1._o 2._o and_o neither_o bring_v

but_o afterward_o god_n say_v let_v the_o earth_n tree_n in_o the_o beginning_n it_o be_v miraculous_a that_o the_o earth_n shall_v bring_v forth_o herb_n plant_n and_o tree_n shoot_v forth_o green_a

11._o this_o be_v a_o supernatural_a and_o miraculous_a work_n of_o god_n but_o ever_o since_o it_o hat_n be_v natural_a unto_o the_o earth_n to_o bring_v forth_o herb_n and_o fruit_n tree_n without_o

and_o the_o like_a we_o may_v say_v of_o the_o have_v of_o child_n and_o creation_n of_o soul_n god_n create_v man_n to_o his_o own_o image_n to_o the_o image_n of_o god_n he_o create_v he_o male_a

can_v be_v say_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o priest_n forever_o according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n because_o he_o offer_v himself_o upon_o the_o cross_n 5._o the_o sacrifice_n of_o our_o

our_o saviour_n be_v to_o be_v a_o priest_n to_o offer_v sacrifice_n unto_o god_n until_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o there_o neither_o be_v nor_o have_v be_v any_o other_o sacrifice_n

the_o christian_a world_n now_o for_o 1600._o year_n have_v general_o believe_v that_o at_o his_o last_o supper_n our_o lord_n offer_v unbloudy_a sacrifice_n and_o give_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n to_o god_n for_o we_o after_o a_o unbloudy_a manner_n as_o in_o part_n i_o have_v prove_v in_o the_o 2._o chapter_n and_o shall_v prove_v more_o at_o large_a hereafter_o 6._o neither_o do_v this_o
