A02628 A recantation sermon preached in the gate-house at VVestminster the 30. day of Iuly 1620 In the presence of many worshipfull persons, by Iohn Harding, late Priest and Dominican Fryar. Wherein he hath declared his iust motiues which haue moued him to leaue the Church of Rome, and to vnite himselfe with the reformed Church of England, whose faith and doctrine, the ancient fathers and holy martyrs haue confirmed both by bloud and writing. Shewing herein the grose errors of Rome, in matters of faith, their corrupting the Fathers, and their present declining to some strange and future ruine. Harding, John, fl. 1620. 1620 (1620) STC 12756; ESTC S115165 15,923 28

but_o inward_o by_o faith_n we_o apprehend_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n but_o these_o word_n which_o our_o saviour_n speak_v figurative_o the_o papist_n expound_v they_o literal_o and_o thereby_o they_o cause_v the_o people_n to_o commit_v idolatry_n by_o adore_v bread_n as_o god_n for_o they_o hold_v that_o after_o the_o word_n of_o consecration_n there_o remain_v no_o long_a bread_n nor_o wine_n but_o there_o be_v real_o and_o transubstantial_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n but_o saint_n peter_n say_v that_o the_o heaven_n must_v contain_v the_o body_n of_o

of_o christ_n it_o must_v also_o be_v a_o visible_a body_n but_o if_o they_o expound_v these_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n hoc_fw-la est_fw-la corpus_fw-la meum_fw-la literal_o to_o belong_v unto_o all_o why_o shall_v they_o not_o also_o expound_v the_o word_n follow_v literal_o that_o when_o he_o take_v the_o cup_n he_o say_v this_o be_v my_o blood_n shall_v be_v appertain_v to_o all_o aswell_o as_o the_o bread_n in_o the_o old_a law_n circumcision_n be_v call_v the_o lord_n covenant_n when_o it_o be_v not_o the_o covenant_n but_o a_o sign_n thereof_o for_o the_o covenant_n be_v this_o to_o

the_o sign_n of_o the_o passeover_n as_o pass_v over_o the_o red_a sea_n so_o that_o it_o may_v stand_v with_o good_a reason_n that_o christ_n call_v the_o bread_n his_o body_n as_o he_o call_v the_o pascall_n lamb_n his_o passeover_n and_o yet_o be_v but_o a_o sign_n thereof_o so_o the_o bread_n be_v call_v his_o body_n and_o be_v but_o a_o sign_n or_o remembrance_n of_o the_o same_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v a_o sacrament_n because_o that_o in_o it_o one_o thing_n be_v see_v and_o another_o thing_n understand_v that_o which_o be_v see_v be_v bread_n and_o wine_n and_o have_v

say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n when_o he_o give_v bread_n the_o sigue_n of_o his_o body_n and_o the_o apostle_n say_v the_o rock_n be_v christ_n for_o that_o the_o rock_n which_o they_o speak_v of_o signify_v christ_n the_o gospel_n stand_v not_o in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o
scripture_n but_o in_o the_o meaning_n therefore_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o the_o communicant_a do_v eat_v bread_n after_o consecration_n for_o if_o the_o bread_n be_v whole_o and_o true_o transubstantiate_v into_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n hence_o it_o follow_v that_o every_o one_o that_o do_v receive_v the_o sacrament_n do_v also_o eat_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o consequent_o can_v be_v damn_v for_o our_o saviour_n say_v he_o that_o eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n have_v eternal_a life_n &_o so_o by_o this_o rule_n the_o wicked_a shall_v be_v save_v as_o

likewise_o that_o the_o sign_n must_v have_v some_o analogy_n with_o the_o thing_n that_o it_o signify_v now_o the_o thing_n signify_v be_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v true_a meat_n &_o true_a drink_n as_o our_o saviour_n himself_o witness_v in_o st._n johns_n gospel_n but_o the_o species_n or_o accident_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v not_o true_a meat_n nor_o true_a drink_n &_o by_o that_o mean_n can_v give_v any_o fit_a proportion_n with_o the_o thing_n signify_v by_o they_o further_o it_o be_v a_o axiom_n in_o philosophy_n that_o accidentis_fw-la esse_fw-la est_fw-la in_o esse_fw-la that_o the_o be_v of_o a_o accident_n be_v to_o be_v in_o some_o subject_n but_o these_o accident_n as_o colour_n savour_n and_o roundness_n they_o can_v be_v in_o any_o subject_n and_o so_o by_o consequence_n they_o can_v exist_v in_o the_o sacrament_n for_o they_o can_v be_v in_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n because_o it_o be_v glorify_v but_o the_o accident_n be_v

christ_n which_o be_v now_o glorify_v and_o this_o be_v impossible_a it_o be_v further_a to_o be_v note_v that_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n do_v mutilate_v and_o curtail_v this_o sacrament_n for_o they_o take_v the_o blood_n of_o our_o saviour_n which_o be_v our_o redemption_n from_o the_o lay-people_n yet_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o our_o saviour_n do_v institute_v this_o sacrament_n under_o both_o kind_n and_o as_o he_o say_v to_o all_o take_v &_o eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n so_o do_v he_o likewise_o speak_v unto_o all_o when_o he_o deliver_v the_o cup_n say_v drink_v you_o all_o of_o this_o and_o saint_n paul_n write_v to_o the_o corinthian_n say_v as_o often_o as_o you_o eat_v of_o this_o bread_n and_o drink_v of_o this_o cup_n you_o show_v forth_o the_o lord_n death_n until_o he_o come_v for_o as_o alexander_n of_o hailes_n say_v whole_a christ_n be_v not_o contain_v under_o each_o kind_n but_o the_o flesh_n only_o under_o the_o form_n of_o bread_n and_o the_o blood_n under_o the_o form_n of_o wine_n and_o here_o upon_o gelasius_n pope_n make_v a_o decree_n that_o they_o shall_v either_o receive_v the_o whole_a under_o both_o kind_n or_o receive_v none_o at_o all_o under_o any_o kind_n for_o there_o can_v be_v no_o division_n of_o this_o one_o sacrament_n and_o high_a mystery_n without_o great_a sacrilege_n so_o that_o by_o their_o own_o doctor_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o they_o commit_v great_a sacrilege_n in_o devide_v this_o sacrament_n and_o do_v much_o abuse_v the_o people_n of_o god_n in_o deceive_v they_o of_o the_o precious_a blood_n of_o our_o saviour_n the_o 5._o motive_n which_o move_v i_o to_o persist_v in_o this_o my_o enterprise_n be_v that_o the_o pope_n challenge_v authority_n unto_o himself_o to_o forgive_v sin_n and_o thereupon_o send_v forth_o his_o bull_n pardon_n and_o indulgence_n pardon_v who_o he_o listen_v and_o as_o he_o listen_v as_o if_o he_o be_v god_n himself_o have_v absolute_a power_n to_o do_v what_o he_o listen_v insomuch_o as_o traitor_n and_o rebel_n against_o god_n and_o their_o lawful_a prince_n he_o will_v not_o only_o pardon_v without_o exception_n but_o he_o will_v enable_v they_o in_o their_o damnable_a course_n to_o the_o overthrow_v of_o themselves_o and_o their_o prince_n what_o the_o religion_n of_o rome_n be_v it_o may_v easy_o appear_v by_o this_o that_o a_o man_n may_v have_v for_o money_n a_o licence_n or_o dispensation_n for_o any_o sin_n a_o pope_n pardon_n be_v sufficient_a for_o all_o but_o to_o what_o end_n serve_v pardon_n when_o as_o there_o be_v no_o purgatory_n for_o

that_o pardon_n be_v not_o know_v unto_o we_o by_o any_o authority_n of_o the_o scripture_n but_o by_o authority_n of_o the_o pope_n which_o be_v great_a than_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o
