wise it shuld not be so highly estemed If they continewe still in these errours against the plaine trueth they will The belefe of a true christian Ro. iiii deny Christ For he that knoweth Christe is certainely assured that he is god and man the sauiour of the worlde that in hym as in the true sede of Dauid al nacions are blessed and that no maÌ„ can come to the father but by him For the father Gâ— iii.

Vndoubtedly Christes wordes diligently obserued and noted we maye perceyue easlye the Christ offred no sacrifice therein To take and breake bread doth not signifye to offre To geue thankes is not to do sacrifice for elles he hadde done sacrifice in fedynge fyue thousand with the fewe barlye loues to gyue his disciples to eate And to say do this in remeÌ„braunce of me in shewynge fuxth the Lordes death vntyll he come is not an offering To belyue that Christ was giuen vs that he gaue his bodie to death for vs that he shed his bloud not at yâ— supper but on the crosse to redeme vs froÌ„ syn is not an offering Finally to proue the testameÌ„t the beleue on that which was coÌ„maunded in the testament doth not signifie to offre How wyl you nowe proue your offerynge in the Masse We come to the Lordes table we take and eate trusteinge in Christes promesses howe do we theÌ„ gyue to him againe If a king shoulde gyue a ringe to a pore maÌ„ for a gage not that he shoulde be heire of hys landes and goods but that it should helpe hym and that he thereby shoulde remember his liberalitye mercye and yâ— people myght coÌ„mende and prayse hym for that facte the pore man receyueth it to giue it agayne to yâ— king thynkinge to do hym a great pleasure to make hym riche wyth hys own gift wer not this a madmaÌ„ So may alsuch be Iudged as offere to Christ agayne that whych he gaue vs for our owne vse and profite and that thereby we shoulde kepe in remembrauÌ„ce his loue and mercye towarde vs. Christ did not lifte vp the sacrameÌ„t ouer his head as these proude papistes do They obiecte and saye that God caÌ„ giue some thynges and receyue them agayne as the sacrifices of tholde lawe Thoughe they were the giftes Esal x of God Yet they were gyuen to hym agayne and thoughe a coÌ„trite herte is the gyfte of god yet it is a sacrifice to God If we were coÌ„maunded to offer sacrifice as they were then theire obiection shoulde be of some streÌ„gth and efficacie But wee haue no suche commaundemente neyther the scriptures make mencion of these popishe sacrifices For Christ is of greater power and reputacioÌ„ then that these proude popish prelates other can or oughte to offer hym to hys father Christe sitteth on the fathers ryght hande and once satisfied for the synnes of the Atc. vil true Christen church with a most sufficient and perfecte sacrifice Dare we then moste miserable wretches enterprise to do thys thynge agayne He that doth offre vp sacrifice is better theÌ„ the sacrifice They therefore are better theÌ„ Christe their sacrifice he offred vs a sacrifice to God and do we goo about to offer hyme He that offerreth vp sacrifice ought to be as pure as the sacrifice Oh howe pure they make Christ nowe He as a testament maker gaue his disciples the sacrameÌ„t in his supper none other wise theÌ„ as a writteÌ„ testameÌ„t wherin by fayth in Christ we receiue Christes bodie bloude the vertue and frutes of the same If wee gyue hym hys testamente agayne as if he required it of vs should not we haue the testament maker in a contempt And should Aba â— not the promise in the testamente be of effecte Who ahboreth not thys kynde of blasphemie wheÌ„ we consider the hyghnes of Christes priesthod and what this worde sacrifice contayneth in it we maye easlye perceyue what Iniury we do to thynke that we offer Christes bodye as the papistes do S. Paule declareth vnto vs yâ— pristhod of christ saiing it is mete the we â— vâ—â—â— haue suche a godly and vndefiled byshop made higher then heaues whych nedeth not to offre dayly First for hys owne sinnes and theÌ„ for the synnes of the people as the byshop of the olde lawe for Christ dyd thys once in offeringe vp hys owne bodye and in an other place he sayth Christe beinge the hyghe priest of the good thinges to come came by a greater and more perfecte Tabernacle whiche was not made wyth handes that is to saye was not of thys kynde of bulding Neither came he by yâ— bloud of gotes and calues but by hys owne bloude he entred once into thys holly place and founde eternall edempcion for we are made hollie bi godes fre mercie through the offering of christes bodie done once for all For Christe verely beinge one sacrifice offred vp for our sinnes sitteth on his fathers right hand lokeing for the thing that remayneh vntil his enemise bemade his fotestole for wyth one offring he made perfecte those that are saÌ„tified Saynt Paule teacheth vs by Melchisedech That Christ is king of peace rightuousnes By these places of scripture it is Manifest that Christ ought to be offred no more For Christes death is so perfect a sacrifice the by the one offering we are made cleane from sinne for euer And touchinge his bodie he is nomore in thys worlde There is to be noted that Saynt Paule sayeth that Christe is once offered The papistes saye often He saieth all

thinges are coÌ„summate made perfecte by one sacrifice The papistes wil haue moneie masses Note also that Christe offered hym selfe and so dyd not the churche byshoâ—es nor priestes and thys worde coÌ„summate or made perfecte doeth blanke them that they haue nothing to answere for the holy gost confuteth theyr sophistrie and cauilacions wyth so manifeste and playne argumentes as can not be denied Note also thys worde euerlastinge Christe is an euerlastynge prieste for he made satisfaction for all the synne of the whole worlde and this sacrifice hath a continuall efficacitie and vertue in all theÌ„ that beleue in it and shew it forth wyth thaÌ„kes giuinge for the same It is truely agreat vnthaÌ„kfulnes to say it is necessarie to offer christ againe an other waye for yâ— sinnes of the worlde They seke manye euations to defende their often offring One is thys they say Christ of freth hym selfe Sacramentally thei are but ministres But thei declare not this worde sacrament what thyng it is leste they should vtter the truth The sacrament is no nother thynge then a token for vs to remembre that Christ being an only sacrifice toke awaye oure synnes once on the crosse If they woulde declare it after thys sorte we shoulde sone agre But when no man doeth resiste them herein they maye doo wyth there Masse what so euer pleaseth them They rule fortune at theyr owne pleasure Victorie in battaile is optained bi their Masse satisfaction for sinne what thinge is it that the Masse cannot do And they make theyr bostes that they deserue by this holi worke what thing so euer is needful But wheÌ„ they are put to there answer theÌ„ thei fly to this euacioÌ„ afore reherssed Christe offeâ—eâ—h hym selfe therin we are notâ—ynge elles but ministers theyr cannon which they magnifie and eâ—toll aboue the gospell doeth manifestlie opeÌ„ and detecte theire vn godlines and blasphemi for before they come to the consecracion thei saye I offre presente and gyue to God an holye and vndefiled sacrifice for the peace of the whole congregacion of holly churche when as it is nothynge but breade and wyne And it is named the sacrament And albeit they beliue that it is not then oure Lordes bodye yet they offer it fore all the world This must nedes be plaine Idolatrie to gyue to breade and wyne the honour and glorie of Christe who gaue hymselfe for the church to reconsile and make hys father atone wyth vs. Howe can Christe offre himselfe in the sacrament before he is ther I thinke men maye nowe easlye perceyue howe muche their lies and answere differ froÌ„e their dedes and masses What an heinouse offence is thys to offre a peice of breade a litle wine for the onely Sacrifice of Christe the highe prieste And shal yâ— bread and wyne be of lyke efficacitye and power to redeme synne with yâ— bloud of Iesus Christe But they are muche more blasphemouse after yâ— consecracion sayng that the bread and wyne are tourned into the naturall bodye and bloude of Christ for they saye we offre to thy holly maiestye an holly offeringe holy breade of lyfe euerlasting and cup of euerlastynge health whiche we praye the vochsafe to regarde and loke vpon wyth thy moste merciful eies and cherful countenauÌ„ce and let them be as acceptable to the as yâ— reward of rightuouse Able sacrifice of our father AbrahaÌ„ Make theÌ„ an hollye cleane sacrifice that thei may be brought to thin altar by yâ— handes of yâ— angel These are the wordes of the caÌ„non If they speake of Christe as they coÌ„moÌ„ly vnderstaÌ„d it how caÌ„ their Imaginacion take place where they saye that Christe offred hymselfe in the sacramente For they praie for Christe and desire of god that he maye be in suche fauoure wyth God as Abel and Abraham and that the Angell maye brynge hym to the aultar of god For they caÌ„ not take bread of eternal life to signifie the people although christ were in the breade bodelye yet he shoulde not be offered to God for that were great derogacioÌ„ to the honour of hys priesthod Great in conuenience doeth folowe to saye that the Masse is a sacrifice for sinnes For saynt Paule sayeth forgiuenes of synnes is not without sheddinge of bloude Howe is Christ then offered in the Masse when there is no offeringe wythout bloude for if there be any sacrifice that suffereth not and is without bloude Saynt Paules ArgumeÌ„tes are folishe and of no strength or vertue saying Christ offreth hymselfe no more or elles he muste necessarily dye once agayne and must haue died often tymes sens the begininge of the worlde But vndoubtly S Paul doeth knowe the true sence and meaneinge of holly scripture better theÌ„ any of al the papistes For a sacrifice for sinne is neuer offred without bloud This saying therfore that some thing was offered in the olde lawe as breade wythout bloude maketh nothinge for there purpose For when the bodyes of lyuinge creatures are slayne and sacrifice is offered for sinnes bloude must be shed Thei cannot therefore proue by scripture that Christes bloude is offered in the Masse otherwyse then in remembraunce and thankes giuing And thys is done both of the ministers and receiuours For as prayer so thankes giuing also belongeth to al men He that geueth thankes sayeth not I offer any thing more than a thanfull herte and prayse to God If the people were taught thys doctrine They woulde not bestowe somuch monie on masses and vpoÌ„ the fouÌ„dacions of chauntries and fraternities as they haue done throughe persuacion that remission of synnes is obtayned in the Masse not by grace promised to them that beleue but by offering of Christe the sonne of God and by prayeinge for hym Phie I am ashamed to rehersse thys abominable balasphemie of theirs in maters of God The papistes in as muche as in them lyeth kill and crucifie Christe agayne in there sacrifice of the Masse doinge no other wyse then if Christe as yet were not ascended into heauen to hys father he that doeth thys maketh Christe subiecte to death and crucifieth hym agayne For Christe entred not nor entreth in to the hollye place of heauen but by his bloud Let vs labour that Christ maye dwell in oure hertes They obeicte yâ— if it be derogacion to Christes honour and dignitie and that the merite of hys passion be not perfecte because we offer Christe agayne fayeth Baptisme and kepinge of godes commaundementes maye diminishe the dignitie of Christe and full merites of his passion and therefore it should not nede to do any good workes This is a folish and an vnmete comparisioÌ„ The offeringe verely of Christe agayne is contrary to fayeth and good workes For they glorifye yâ— merittes of Christes passion when the offeringe of him agayne is greate derogacion to the same They do as a man that lyghteth a candle in a bright sunnye Daye saynge all thoughe the sunne giueth a light cleare inoughe it of selfe yet it is
