ever_o christ_n flesh_n be_v eat_v and_o his_o blood_n be_v drink_v which_o be_v most_o signal_o do_v in_o the_o sacrament_n there_o eternal_a life_n must_v accompany_v it_o and_o so_o these_o word_n must_v be_v understand_v even_o in_o relation_n to_o the_o sacrament_n only_o of_o the_o spiritual_a communicate_v by_o faith_n as_o when_o it_o be_v say_v a_o man_n be_v a_o reasonable_a creature_n though_o this_o be_v say_v of_o the_o whole_a man_n body_n and_o soul_n yet_o when_o we_o see_v that_o upon_o the_o dissolution_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n no_o reason_n or_o life_n remain_v in_o the_o body_n we_o from_o thence_o positive_o conclude_v the_o reason_n be_v seat_v only_o in_o the_o soul_n though_o the_o body_n have_v organ_n that_o be_v necessary_a for_o its_o operation_n so_o when_o it_o be_v say_v we_o eat_v christ_n flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n in_o the_o sacrament_n which_o give_v eternal_a life_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n in_o it_o the_o bodily_a eat_n and_o the_o spiritual_a communicate_v though_o the_o eat_n of_o christ_n flesh_n be_v say_v to_o be_v do_v in_o the_o worthy_a receive_n which_o consist_v of_o these_o two_o yet_o since_o we_o may_v clear_o see_v the_o bodily_a receive_n may_v be_v without_o any_o such_o effect_n we_o must_v conclude_v that_o the_o eat_n of_o christ_n flesh_n be_v only_o do_v by_o the_o inward_a communicate_v though_o the_o other_o that_o be_v the_o bodily_a part_n be_v a_o divine_a organ_n and_o conveyance_n of_o it_o and_o as_o reason_n be_v seat_v only_o in_o the_o soul_n so_o the_o eat_n of_o christ_n flesh_n must_v be_v only_o inward_a and_o spiritual_a and_o so_o the_o mean_a by_o which_o we_o receive_v christ_n in_o the_o supper_n be_v faith_n all_o this_o be_v make_v much_o clear_a by_o the_o word_n that_o follow_v my_o flesh_n be_v meat_n indeed_o and_o my_o blood_n be_v drink_v indeed_o now_o christ_n flesh_n be_v so_o eat_v as_o it_o be_v meat_n which_o i_o suppose_v none_o will_v question_v it_o be_v a_o prosecution_n of_o the_o same_o discourse_n now_o it_o be_v not_o meat_n as_o take_v by_o the_o body_n for_o they_o can_v be_v so_o gross_a as_o to_o say_v christ_n flesh_n be_v the_o meat_n of_o our_o body_n therefore_o since_o his_o flesh_n be_v only_o the_o meat_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o spiritual_a nourishment_n it_o be_v only_o eat_v by_o the_o soul_n and_o so_o receive_v by_o faith_n christ_n also_o say_v he_o that_o eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n dwell_v in_o he_o and_o he_o in_o he_o this_o be_v the_o definition_n of_o that_o eat_n and_o drink_v he_o have_v be_v speak_v of_o so_o that_o such_o as_o be_v the_o dwell_n in_o he_o such_o also_o must_v be_v the_o eat_n of_o he_o the_o one_o therefore_o be_v spiritual_a inward_a and_o by_o faith_n the_o other_o must_v be_v such_o also_o and_o thus_o it_o be_v as_o plain_a as_o can_v be_v from_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n that_o he_o speak_v not_o of_o a_o carnal_a or_o corporal_a but_o of_o a_o spiritual_a eat_n of_o his_o flesh_n by_o faith_n all_o this_o be_v more_o confirm_v by_o the_o key_n our_o saviour_n give_v of_o his_o whole_a discourse_n when_o the_o jew_n be_v offend_v for_o the_o

shall_v examine_v n.n._n his_o reason_n to_o the_o contrary_n his_o chief_a argument_n be_v that_o when_o eternal_a life_n be_v promise_v upon_o the_o give_n of_o alm_n or_o other_o good_a work_n we_o must_v necessary_o understand_v it_o with_o this_o proviso_n that_o they_o be_v give_v with_o a_o good_a intention_n and_o from_o a_o good_a principle_n therefore_o we_o must_v understand_v these_o

thing_n in_o question_n and_o i_o hope_v i_o have_v make_v it_o appear_v our_o saviour_n be_v speak_v of_o a_o internal_a action_n and_o therefore_o no_o such_o proviso_n be_v to_o be_v suppose_v for_o he_o be_v speak_v of_o that_o eat_n of_o his_o flesh_n which_o must_v necessary_o and_o certain_o be_v worthy_o do_v and_o so_o that_o objection_n be_v of_o no_o force_n he_o must_v therefore_o prove_v that_o the_o eat_v his_o flesh_n be_v primary_o and_o simple_o mean_v of_o the_o bodily_a eat_n in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o not_o only_o by_o a_o denomination_n from_o a_o relation_n to_o
