transubstantiation_n for_o i_o will_v ask_v suppose_v a_o man_n shall_v consecrate_v with_o the_o word_n of_o st._n luke_n this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n will_v that_o

to_o be_v guilty_a of_o have_v they_o believe_v what_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n now_o believe_v about_o it_o it_o be_v therefore_o very_o necessary_a that_o the_o apostle_n shall_v speak_v clear_o and_o plain_o out_o in_o this_o matter_n and_o we_o see_v he_o do_v solemn_o usher_v in_o what_o he_o say_v with_o the_o authority_n of_o christ_n for_o i_o have_v receive_v of_o the_o lord_n that_o

of_o rome_n upon_o another_o account_n do_v not_o agree_v with_o the_o word_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n the_o opinion_n of_o that_o church_n be_v that_o under_o each_o species_n as_o they_o call_v it_o whole_a christ_n be_v contain_v body_n blood_n soul_n and_o divinity_n so_o that_o both_o be_v but_o just_a the_o very_a same_o thing_n in_o nothing_o different_a but_o in_o outward_a appearance_n which_o only_o deceive_v our_o sense_n and_o it_o be_v upon_o this_o opinion_n chief_o that_o they_o ground_n the_o denial_n of_o the_o cup_n to_o the_o people_n because_o say_v they_o shall_v they_o have_v the_o cup_n they_o will_v have_v no_o more_o but_o just_a the_o very_a same_o thing_n they_o have_v in_o the_o other_o kind_a and_o suppose_v their_o opinion_n true_a the_o argument_n may_v for_o any_o thing_n i_o know_v have_v some_o force_n in_o it_o but_o then_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o deny_v we_o leave_v to_o argue_v the_o other_o way_n that_o that_o opinion_n must_v needs_o be_v false_a which_o make_v our_o saviour_n guilty_a of_o a_o great_a absurdity_n in_o appoint_v two_o kind_n but_o both_o real_o the_o same_o thing_n and_o one_o of_o they_o perfect_o unnecessary_a but_o that_o which_o i_o will_v chief_o take_v notice_n of_o be_v that_o this_o doctrine_n of_o they_o contradict_v the_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n for_o what_o they_o make_v but_o one_o thing_n he_o plain_o make_v two_o and_o call_v they_o by_o two_o different_a name_n the_o one_o he_o call_v his_o body_n the_o other_o he_o call_v his_o blood_n which_o suppose_v they_o to_o be_v two_o different_a thing_n as_o plain_a as_o word_n can_v express_v they_o they_o say_v indeed_o that_o in_o the_o glorify_a body_n of_o christ_n the_o body_n and_o blood_n can_v be_v separate_v and_o therefore_o be_v the_o word_n to_o be_v take_v in_o such_o a_o sense_n as_o to_o consider_v they_o separate_v they_o will_v contain_v a_o great_a absurdity_n so_o that_o wherever_o the_o one_o be_v the_o other_o by_o concomitancy_n must_v be_v there_o too_o but_o who_o tell_v they_o that_o the_o glorify_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o sacrament_n the_o word_n of_o the_o institution_n intimate_v no_o such_o thing_n but_o speak_v of_o his_o body_n give_v and_o his_o blood_n shed_v which_o certain_o be_v separate_v from_o his_o body_n but_o however_o this_o be_v argue_v from_o reason_n against_o the_o word_n and_o be_v just_a the_o very_a same_o thing_n which_o they_o condemn_v as_o heretical_a in_o we_o and_o if_o this_o be_v once_o allow_v they_o must_v throw_v off_o the_o whole_a doctrine_n for_o we_o can_v show_v they_o ten_o time_n as_o many_o absurdity_n in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o transustantiation_n as_o they_o can_v in_o suppose_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n to_o subsist_v separately_z in_o short_a either_o we_o must_v stick_v to_o the_o very_a word_n of_o our_o bless_a saviour_n or_o we_o must_v not_o if_o we_o must_v their_o opinion_n must_v be_v false_a which_o make_v what_o our_o saviour_n call_v two_o thing_n to_o be_v but_o one_o if_o we_o must_v not_o stick_v to_o the_o very_a word_n but_o interpret_v they_o according_a to_o right_a reason_n and_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n they_o then_o give_v up_o their_o cause_n to_o conclude_v this_o head_n what_o reason_n can_v there_o be_v imagine_v why_o our_o saviour_n shall_v in_o a_o solemn_a manner_n at_o different_a time_n and_o under_o different_a name_n give_v the_o very_a same_o thing_n call_v the_o one_o his_o body_n and_o the_o other_o his_o blood_n when_o according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n he_o may_v as_o well_o have_v invert_v the_o name_n and_o have_v call_v that_o his_o blood_n which_o he_o call_v his_o body_n and_o so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n there_o can_v i_o believe_v be_v any_o reason_n think_v of_o but_o only_o this_o that_o the_o one_o kind_a the_o bread_n be_v very_o proper_a to_o represent_v the_o break_n of_o his_o body_n the_o other_o the_o wine_n to_o represent_v the_o shed_n of_o his_o blood_n which_o be_v the_o very_a thing_n that_o we_o will_v have_v for_o then_o there_o be_v a_o sufficient_a reason_n for_o these_o name_n without_o any_o bodily_a presence_n at_o all_o i_o have_v be_v the_o long_o in_o consider_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o scripture_n in_o this_o matter_n because_o your_o writer_n common_o

out_o of_o the_o scripture_n i_o be_o now_o more_o at_o liberty_n to_o show_v you_o the_o gross_a absurdity_n and_o the_o monstrous_a contradiction_n that_o be_v involve_v in_o it_o though_o in_o

not_o how_o can_v they_o be_v certain_a of_o that_o but_o to_o press_v this_o matter_n a_o little_a more_o plain_o they_o say_v for_o instance_n that_o we_o can_v from_o scripture_n be_v certain_a of_o the_o divinity_n of_o our_o saviour_n because_o the_o socinian_n a_o small_a number_n of_o man_n dispute_v that_o matter_n but_o the_o same_o socinian_o deny_v their_o infallible_a judge_n and_o

yet_o make_v the_o most_o dispute_v thing_n in_o all_o the_o world_n the_o foundation_n of_o all_o the_o certainty_n they_o have_v i_o have_v be_v the_o long_o in_o examine_v this_o point_n of_o the_o

of_o christ_n that_o be_v of_o the_o break_n of_o his_o body_n and_o the_o shed_v his_o blood_n and_o so_o may_v be_v proper_o enough_o say_v to_o be_v partaker_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n yet_o
