and_o the_o drink_n of_o his_o blood_n if_o any_o man_n will_v have_v life_n in_o he_o and_o consonant_n and_o agreeable_a unto_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n also_o say_v 11.27_o say_v 1_o cor._n 11.27_o whosoever_o shall_v eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n of_o the_o lord_n unworthy_o shall_v be_v guilty_a of_o the_o true_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o the_o lord_n neither_o do_v we_o doubt_v but_o as_o christ_n open_o command_v the_o bread_n to_o be_v eat_v so_o also_o not_o long_o after_o where_o he_o say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n he_o secret_o command_v that_o also_o to_o be_v eat_v no_o less_o than_o the_o bread_n but_o yet_o each_o after_o its_o own_o manner_n doct._n viii_o that_o none_o but_o the_o faithful_a do_v true_o eat_v the_o true_a flesh_n of_o christ_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o supper_n offer_v unto_o all_o to_o eat_v we_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v the_o true_a faithful_a only_a which_o do_v true_o eat_v thereof_o and_o that_o for_o these_o reason_n first_o because_o they_o only_o have_v communion_n with_o christ_n and_o so_o also_o with_o his_o flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o other_o have_v not_o neither_o be_v they_o make_v partaker_n thereof_o when_o they_o receive_v the_o bread_n second_o because_o they_o only_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n by_o the_o power_n of_o who_o alone_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n be_v true_o communicate_v three_o because_o they_o only_o bring_v faith_n with_o they_o without_o which_o there_o can_v be_v no_o true_a receive_n and_o eat_v thereof_o for_o neither_o do_v christ_n himself_o true_o and_o real_o exhibit_v his_o true_a body_n but_o to_o they_o who_o as_o true_o believe_v that_o his_o body_n be_v deliver_v unto_o death_n for_o they_o and_o his_o blood_n pour_v forth_o for_o their_o sin_n as_o they_o believe_v that_o those_o word_n be_v true_a this_o be_v my_o body_n doct._n ix_o that_o hypocrite_n eat_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n sacramental_o mean_o while_o we_o deny_v not_o but_o that_o even_a hypocrite_n themselves_o void_a of_o true_a and_o justify_v faith_n when_o they_o receive_v and_o eat_v the_o bread_n as_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n body_n may_v be_v say_v in_o some_o sort_n to_o eat_v the_o true_a body_n of_o christ_n to_o wit_n sacramental_o but_o not_o true_o and_o real_o as_o the_o apostle_n in_o like_a manner_n say_v that_o all_o the_o corinthian_n which_o be_v baptise_a with_o water_n be_v also_o sanctify_v and_o justify_v to_o wit_n sacramental_o as_o we_o declare_v before_o although_o they_o be_v not_o all_o true_o make_v such_o doct._n x._o that_o of_o those_o that_o eat_v there_o be_v three_o sort_n and_o so_o divers_a manner_n of_o eat_v from_o whence_o we_o be_v teach_v that_o there_o be_v three_o sort_n of_o man_n of_o who_o there_o may_v a_o question_n be_v make_v whether_o they_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n or_o no._n the_o first_o be_v of_o they_o which_o receive_v the_o bread_n as_o common_a bread_n and_o not_o as_o a_o sacrament_n and_o these_o eat_v not_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n in_o any_o sort_n but_o be_v true_a capernaite_n and_o their_o eat_n be_v mere_o carnal_a the_o second_o be_v of_o they_o which_o contrary_o eat_v not_o the_o bread_n at_o all_o but_o yet_o not_o out_o of_o contempt_n but_o believe_v the_o gospel_n only_o and_o their_o eat_n be_v mere_o spiritual_a the_o three_o and_o last_o sort_n be_v of_o they_o which_o not_o content_a only_o with_o believe_v the_o gospel_n receive_v the_o bread_n also_o not_o simple_o as_o the_o first_o as_o if_o it_o be_v bare_a and_o common_a bread_n but_o as_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n body_n whereupon_o they_o may_v be_v say_v also_o to_o receive_v and_o eat_v sacramental_o but_o forasmuch_o as_o this_o may_v be_v do_v by_o the_o true_a godly_a as_o well_o as_o by_o those_o which_o be_v hypocrite_n and_o ungodly_a but_o yet_o after_o a_o different_a manner_n the_o one_o sort_n eat_v also_o by_o faith_n and_o the_o other_o without_o true_a faith_n therefore_o also_o we_o say_v that_o the_o ungodly_a and_o hypocrite_n eat_v only_o sacramental_o but_o the_o true_a godly_a both_o sacramental_o and_o true_o and_o spiritual_o and_o so_o unto_o salvation_n doct._n xi_o that_o by_o faith_n only_o the_o true_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v eat_v but_o whereas_o we_o say_v that_o the_o faithful_a only_o receive_v the_o true_a body_n of_o christ_n not_o sacramental_o only_a but_o also_o true_o we_o understand_v it_o of_o eat_v not_o with_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o body_n but_o the_o mind_n and_o spirit_n endue_v with_o faith_n and_o that_o by_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n

also_o that_o the_o eat_n be_v after_o the_o same_o manner_n for_o what_o be_v it_o to_o eat_v but_o to_o receive_v and_o unite_v the_o food_n unto_o thou_o for_o the_o nourishment_n of_o that_o

the_o body_n of_o christ_n any_o otherwise_o but_o as_o it_o be_v deliver_v to_o death_n for_o we_o &_o make_v without_o blood_n as_o the_o word_n do_v sound_a and_o the_o break_n of_o the_o bread_n do_v represent_v unto_o we_o and_o also_o as_o the_o passover_n and_o other_o sacrifice_n be_v wont_a to_o be_v eat_v but_o now_o the_o body_n live_v and_o can_v be_v without_o blood_n as_o at_o the_o

without_o the_o blood_n and_o the_o blood_n apart_o without_o the_o body_n be_v give_v in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n but_o that_o we_o may_v understand_v that_o the_o body_n and_o

because_o they_o which_o eat_v thereof_o with_o actual_a faith_n in_o the_o lord_n himself_o grow_v up_o together_o in_o communion_n with_o the_o lord_n himself_o and_o with_o his_o flesh_n and_o

of_o abraham_n into_o the_o unity_n of_o the_o fame_n person_n and_o further_o for_o as_o much_o as_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n be_v two_o substance_n as_o it_o appear_v in_o the_o creation_n of_o

some_o abuse_n the_o godly_a say_n of_o athanasius_n to_o prove_v their_o own_o dream_n and_o fancy_n for_o it_o be_v altogether_o necessary_a that_o he_o which_o manifest_v himself_o that_o be_v
