for_o ever_o and_o when_o he_o say_v take_v and_o eat_v he_o command_v 6._o heb._n 5._o 6._o we_o not_o to_o offer_v up_o his_o body_n but_o only_o to_o feed_v on_o it_o so_o also_o another_o abuse_n of_o the_o papist_n be_v to_o deny_v the_o cup_n to_o the_o people_n whereas_o christ_n in_o his_o institution_n say_v drink_v you_o all_o of_o this_o it_o be_v a_o high_a sacrilegious_a impiety_n thus_o express_o to_o go_v against_o christ_n institution_n in_o his_o own_o word_n it_o be_v by_o faith_n alone_o we_o eat_v the_o body_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o yet_o we_o

in_o that_o place_n unless_o you_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n 53._o joh._n 6._o 53._o and_o drink_v his_o blood_n you_o have_v no_o life_n in_o you_o do_v our_o saviour_n here_o

there_o christ_n command_v they_o to_o communicate_v with_o the_o passion_n and_o suffering_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o most_o sweet_o to_o lay_v it_o up_o in_o remembrance_n that_o for_o we_o his_o

this_o be_v my_o blood_n this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n where_o the_o
name_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v by_o a_o sacramental_a metonymy_n be_v give_v to_o the_o sign_n so_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n must_v be_v understand_v sacramental_o the_o bread_n be_v call_v

which_o be_v give_v to_o death_n for_o you_o and_o be_v a_o certain_a sign_n of_o your_o conjunction_n and_o union_n with_o i_o so_o that_o he_o that_o believe_v and_o eat_v this_o bread_n he_o do_v true_o feed_v on_o my_o body_n but_o according_a to_o that_o impious_a fiction_n of_o the_o popish_a transubstantiation_n many_o absurdity_n follow_v as_o 1._o christ_n break_v bread_n not_o his_o body_n therefore_o the_o bread_n be_v not_o real_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n 2._o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v give_v for_o we_o and_o not_o bread_n therefore_o bread_n be_v not_o real_o the_o

transubstantiation_n take_v away_o the_o analogy_n between_o the_o sign_n and_o the_o thing_n signify_v but_o no_o more_o of_o this_o i_o will_v only_o add_v four_o reason_n against_o the_o carnal_a or_o corporal_a presence_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o sacrament_n reason_n 1_o if_o the_o bread_n be_v turn_v into_o christ_n body_n than_o there_o will_v be_v two_o christ_n one_o that_o give_v and_o one_o that_o be_v give_v for_o our_o saviour_n give_v the_o bread_n etc._n etc._n reason_n 2_o if_o the_o bread_n be_v the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n there_o will_v then_o be_v no_o more_o sign_n of_o the_o thing_n signify_v and_o so_o no_o 11._o rom._n 4._o 11._o sacrament_n reason_n 3_o then_o the_o wicked_a receiver_n may_v eat_v and_o drink_v christ_n body_n and_o blood_n as_o well_o as_o the_o true_a believer_n reason_n 4_o the_o minister_n can_v give_v the_o inward_a grace_n but_o the_o outward_a element_n only_o in_o the_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n there_o be_v another_o gross_a error_n also_o of_o consubstantiation_n consubstantiation_n be_v a_o coexistency_n of_o two_o substance_n in_o the_o same_o place_n or_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n not_o under_o the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n but_o under_o the_o very_a bread_n and_o wine_n luther_n be_v of_o this_o opinion_n that_o it_o remain_v bread_n still_o but_o under_o in_o or_o with_o the_o bread_n be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o this_o be_v the_o common_a tenant_n and_o opinion_n of_o those_o who_o this_o day_n be_v call_v lutheran_n against_o this_o these_o few_o reason_n may_v suffice_v 1._o the_o whole_a action_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v do_v in_o remembrance_n of_o christ_n what_o need_n have_v we_o of_o that_o if_o christ_n body_n be_v real_o present_a either_o under_o with_o or_o in_o the_o element_n 2._o christ_n body_n be_v in_o heaven_n and_o the_o heaven_n must_v receive_v he_o until_o the_o time_n of_o restitution_n of_o all_o thing_n act_n 3._o 21._o 3._o this_o be_v a_o essential_a property_n of_o every_o magnitude_n and_o therefore_o of_o christ_n body_n also_o to_o be_v in_o one_o place_n and_o circumscribe_v or_o encompass_v of_o one_o place_n 4._o if_o christ_n body_n be_v eat_v corporal_o than_o the_o wicked_a as_o well_o as_o the_o godly_a partake_v of_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n but_o to_o eat_v his_o flesh_n be_v to_o believe_v in_o he_o and_o to_o have_v eternal_a life_n 5._o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o think_v that_o christ_n sit_v with_o his_o disciple_n do_v with_o his_o own_o hand_n take_v his_o own_o body_n and_o give_v it_o whole_o to_o every_o one_o of_o his_o disciple_n this_o be_v the_o sacrament_n not_o of_o the_o live_n or_o of_o the_o glorious_a body_n of_o christ_n but_o of_o his_o suffering_n and_o crucify_a body_n so_o christ_n say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n which_o be_v give_v for_o you_o it_o be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o christ_n body_n deliver_v unto_o death_n for_o we_o and_o that_o these_o two_o way_n 1._o it_o be_v a_o visible_a sign_n bring_v to_o our_o remembrance_n or_o represent_v to_o we_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n that_o as_o with_o our_o bodily_a eye_n we_o see_v the_o bread_n of_o the_o lord_n so_o with_o the_o eye_n of_o our_o soul_n we_o may_v see_v christ_n body_n crucify_v for_o we_o 2._o it_o be_v a_o seal_n seal_v to_o our_o faith_n that_o christ_n body_n be_v certain_o deliver_v to_o death_n for_o we_o and_o be_v become_v the_o bread_n of_o life_n unto_o we_o we_o must_v not_o therefore_o seek_v christ_n body_n in_o the_o earthly_a element_n but_o by_o faith_n lift_v up_o our_o heart_n to_o heaven_n whither_o christ_n ascend_v and_o where_o he_o be_v so_o in_o our_o liturgy_n at_o the_o celebration_n of_o this_o supper_n we_o be_v admonish_v to_o lift_v up_o our_o heart_n now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o outward_a action_n both_o of_o the_o minister_n and_o also_o of_o the_o receiver_n 1._o the_o action_n of_o the_o minister_n be_v these_o four_o 1._o to_o take_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n into_o his_o hand_n and_o to_o separate_v it_o from_o ordinary_a bread_n and_o wine_n which_o

the_o father_n seal_v 2._o to_o bless_v and_o consecrate_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n by_o the_o word_n and_o prayer_n which_o signify_v to_o we_o that_o god_n in_o his_o due_a time_n send_v christ_n into_o the_o world_n and_o sanctify_v he_o furnish_v he_o with_o all_o gift_n needful_a for_o a_o mediator_n 3._o to_o break_v the_o bread_n and_o pour_v out_o the_o wine_n which_o signify_v the_o

wine_n to_o the_o receiver_n which_o signify_v that_o god_n give_v christ_n and_o that_o christ_n give_v himself_o to_o we_o and_o that_o whole_a christ_n and_o all_o his_o merit_n be_v free_o offer_v

51._o 2._o next_o we_o come_v to_o the_o sacramental_a action_n of_o the_o receiver_n and_o they_o be_v these_o two_o 1._o to_o take_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n offer_v by_o the_o minister_n every_o

on_o his_o name_n 2._o to_o eat_v the_o bread_n and_o drink_v the_o wine_n receive_v they_o into_o the_o body_n and_o digest_v they_o and_o this_o signify_v our_o unite_n to_o christ_n and_o enjoy_v of_o 26._o 1_o cor._n 11._o 26._o he_o or_o our_o application_n of_o christ_n by_o faith_n that_o the_o feel_n of_o our_o true_a union_n and_o communion_n with_o christ_n may_v be_v increase_v we_o
be_v imitable_a by_o we_o and_o which_o we_o ought_v to_o follow_v so_o our_o sanctification_n consist_v in_o a_o conformity_n to_o the_o way_n of_o christ_n ordinary_a obedience_n so_o we_o read_v
